Can tick off the birthday for the year now. Had such a great time on Friday which fizzled out into a bit of a haze and then a total blackout.  Can remember I wanted to sleep next to my toilet. In winter without central-heating not the most comfortable and coziest place in the flat. Think I knocked my head against the sink in the process of snuggling up to the toilet.

The cherry on the cake was that I had to go to Spanish class at 10.30. I managed to drag myself out of bed and into the car (probably still slightly inebriated). When I got to the building the lift was broken which meant I had to carry my incapable body up 6 flights of stairs. Great! I actually turned around wanting to totally skip the class and bumped into the Clever Classmate. Well, up the 6 flights of stairs I went. My already white complexion didn’t help me much - survived class.

To redeem myself I’ve baked 60 cupcakes today - my lovely colleagues better enjoy them tomorrow. Especially the utterly sluttishly red velvet cupcakes. Don’t know why I’ve never baked them before, they’re going to be a show-stopper… yum!
