One of those days

What with the layoff, I've gotten to the point of penny-pinching where buying a latte feels like a truly decadent luxury. I'll do it maybe once a week, but I have to really argue with myself first.

But today, I woke up unexplicably grumpy and so I decided to treat myself. A latte? Can I afford it? Go on, splurge a little, Peg! No, really, it's okay! You put in seven hours of overtime this week, surely you can allow yourself this, not just a standard latte, but $3.75 for a gingerbread latte!

Whereupon I managed to slop it all over the front of my blouse. Now I'm grumpier than ever.

Tell me something to cheer me up, friends list.

I came home from my night class last night to discover my favorite cookies ever, Stella D'Oro Pfeffernusse, are out for the holidays. There were two packages on the counter. I ate a half a package. I was up half the night from the sugar and feel vaguely ill this morning from my greed, but.

That's the first time I've tasted pfeffernusse since last Christmas, and they were delicious.
