Today was one of those really long days. I had to actually go into my work’s office today to get trained on some  software for our new account. We were supposed to be there at 8 am.  Of course, that meant I slept terribly last night, waking up every half hour and then laying there for 45 minutes before the alarm went off.  I hate that!

Anyway, training was done by someone who wasn’t used to training, so I think we all left fairly confused and have been figuring out things on our own.  I have pages of notes and need to sit down tonight and try to organize them into something coherent. I spent a lot of time on the phone this afternoon with my fellow workers getting stuff all figured out. 😀 It should all work out once we get used to it, though. It’s just a very different platform than we are used to dealing with, but is certainly is useful to learn it.  Helps pad the resume. Things will  feel all over the place for a while, so I have to have some patience.  We are all smart and can learn anything given enough time.

We had John’s birthday cake tonight. I used this recipe.  You know how so many recipes are “The Best XX Ever” and you try it and say ‘meh’?  Well, this cake really is pretty amazing 😀

The same one he requested last year. So John stretched things out for his birthday with more presents and the cake.  Now I think he is done 😉
