I didn't have a real cake on my birthday last week. Normally, my mom would do the whole cake thing but the folks were out of town. It's funny, my brothers and I will be 65 years old (one day in the way future) and mom will still be doing the birthday cake and pictures with her "babies." I had lunch with my friend Tim, who's an Aries b-day as well. He's the wonder behind all the technical aspects of my blog. I do not do code, so Timmy does it for me. Bless him. We stopped in at Starbucks after eating at BJs, and I saw this beautiful cupcake. It was bright yellow and white with a sugar flower on top. It looked so happy sitting there in the glass case with the other sweet delectables. So, I got the cupcake and made it my official birthday "cake". The c-cake is so not part of the skinny jeans plan, but what the hell. Today, I'm bravura.
If ya haven't noticed, Starbucks is promoting this Spelling Bee movie, so they are putting all these really long, ambiguous sounding words on their cardboard holders. Today's word was cambist: an expert trader who rapidly buys and sells currency throughout the day. Use that word in a pick up line in a crowded noisy bar, "Hi, I'm a cambist."..."You're a what?"...."A cambist"...."You're a cannabis. Isn't that a dooby?"...Oh geez!
