My List of Loves....
I was looking at this blog... The Rockstar Diaries and there is a series called "Here's to Happiness" which is where people state the ten things which make them terribly happy. Well being as I have been on a little high of late and am feeling rather nice I thought I would email my ten things that made me terribly happy to this chick. But... As I got started I found I couldn't stop... Which is nice? Hahaha. So I thought sod it. I will write all the things I could think of on here. Sorry if you are bored. But its nice isn't it. Maybe I will inspire you to make lists of things that you love. I for one would like to see them... xxxx

Dulverton Palace
So imagine my dismay when yesterday, in quite a chipper giggly mood despite having not even 3 hours sleep I receive this on email from my housemate who has scanned it in so I could see it knowing fore well I would hit the roof....
I never once slept on that mattress in my room. The front room. I brought my own.
The marks on the top of the fireplace and stuff are all on the inventory.
We cleaned the floors and skirting when we left. WITH MOPS. Let alone just swept.
The tiles were all loose when we moved in. Old fashioned tiled hallway. On inventory.
We have a letter from them saying its OK to replace the green sofas as long as we leave the new ones(red ones) the old ones were disgusting.
The dining table the landlords sister came and took. The chairs that were around it were in the kitchen. The one he said was left outside was already out there.
There's no rubbish under the stairs. Whatever is in there is what was already there.
The bulbs in the kitchen weren't all working in the first place. I remember asking my dad to put new ones in because they were so high up and he said it'd be cheaper to not bother. Cuz they're halogen down lighter things and I think there were about 20.
Why would we cover an air vent? There should be no scuffs really and definitely no blu tack marks because no one was in that room!?It was spare.
Cobwebs? You get done for cobwebs these days!?!!
The bathroom the floor is wood painted white and we have been there for 2 years and it started to peel where you got out the bath. It was also worn around the loo where the loo was leaking and I had rang and rang for them to fix and they didn't so Dad put sealant round it and it didn't work.
No rubbish in the front garden!?? back garden a bit weedy but you know.
Zod cleaned out both fridges washed insides and took out all shelves and stuff and washed. Washed the drawers in the freezer.
I even cleaned all the extractor thing (which wasn't cleaned when we moved in) so they can swivel if they say the kitchen wasn't cleaned.
Wrestlemania
I do. I really do. I would have married him had he have not aged. I like to keep him in a little corner of my mind in all his 1980's glory. All his St Elmos Fire beautifulness.
And noone talks shit about my man.

A little insight into my world.....
1. Thing you cannot leave the house without?
Phone... Although I should probably say keys... but I always do leave the house without them and that my friends is the problem.
2. Favorite brand of makeup?
Hmmm. I love Urban Decay eyeshadows they are so bright. I love Mac Lipglass. Ummm I like Maybelline waterproof mascara just the regular black one. Oh and to be dramatic I love Christian Dior Diorshow Blackout... But the amount of mascara I use to cover up my albino eyes is phenomenal and this shit is priceeeey. So the Maybelline will do and it looks pretty natural. Although I do get my bonus at work tomorrow so I am gonna try semi permanent eyelash extension things. See whats what. I will report back when I bother...
3. Favorite flower?
4. Favorite clothing store?
5. Favorite perfume ?
6. Heels or flats?
7. Do you make good grades?
8. Favorite colors?
9. Do you drink energy drinks?
10. Do you drink juice?
11. Do you like swimming?
12. Do you eat fries with a fork?
13. Favorite moisturizer?
14. Do you want to get married later on in life?
15. Do you get mad easily?
16. Are you into ghost hunting?
17. Any phobias?
18. Do you bite your nails?
19. Have you ever had a near death experience?
20. Do you drink coffee?

Is it wrong...
I'm tired and mardy today. Argument at 3am. Sat on my step and cried so hard I got cramp under my ribs. That's never happened before. Must be the Bikram Yoga ughh.
Cried myself to sleep and felt like crying the moment I woke up. Disgraceful.
This blog is turning into a whole lot of anything. I am sorry. Variety is the spice of life yeah?
I HATE LENT.
Had some of these earlier to make me feel better....
They're ok yeah but NO. They didnt cut it. Feel miserable... STILL.
I think I am the last person actually taking this lent seriously. Yeah thats a dig at the boy. He's rubbish at lent.
All I wanna do is go to wherever THIS man is just sit down and make him make me all his chocolatey recipes and just bask in chocolatey goodness and then die. Of a big fat chocolate induced heart attack.
Oh Bitsssssy. Cheer the FUCK up.
OK. As a method of cheer up-ness....

I think...
I ate some ham that I think was funny. (not funny ha ha. funny weird)
I just spoke to Jo and through just talking 'at' her I feel that maybe subconsciously I ate the funny ham knowing it was funny in a dramatic bid for weightloss.
I will be utterly unamused if I just feel ill.
hahahah.

Thought of the day...
But if that is the case I will let you know and I will resume in my next dead period.
Thanks for the comments when I was down in the dumps the other day it was nice. I am a lot happier now. Who knows how long for but at the mo. I kinda got a wee bit of the good butterflies hanging out with me :) I'm fickle...Don't judge me!

Cupcake Catch Up... Finale...
The cakes were chocolate guinness, her favourite, and then topped with either vanilla or dark chocolate butter icing. Then I made some pretty little roses, hearts & presents out of baby pink fondant and chocolate flavoured fondant.
I also used a pink lustre spray to put a bit of shimmer on the pink ones.
Cupcake Catch Up...Part Deux...
First an order for Catherine at work...
She requested 4 cakes (she got 6 due to said crisis! BONUS!) and just requested a couple of different things. 1 being the Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club badge.... Tricky very tricky! There's a fair bit of detail in such a small space!
Heres their website... Go check out the footballers... You know you want to!
http://www.seagulls.co.uk/page/Home/
Then a little spongebob. I am so critical of him. I don't particularly like him. I think I could do better. Catherine loved him. But i am very critical of my stuff. I guess the whole crisis just stressed me out! So I won't like anything I see!
And then a couple of cute ones for her partners Mother. And the last two I did in the Brighton & Hove Albion colours just to match.
Chocolate Guinness cakes with coloured vanilla butter icing and coloured fondants for hand made decorations.
Thanks for your order Catherine!!!!
The next little cupcakes were for my friend Helen at work... she wanted to give them to her bald boyfriend. It was a little joke she had. So again ordered 4 and got 6. And I did a little bald head on one and piped Baldy on another. Piped Daisy on one for her boyfriends little girl and a bottle of wine one for Helen herself and then two cool glittery black numbers really made the other colours pop!
Chocolate Guinness cakes (God! People can't get enough of that shizz!) with coloured vanilla butter icing and coloured fondants for hand made decs.
Cupcake Catch Up!
So whilst doing this I also realised I had forgotton to add some pics from Valentines.
I did these for Laura... She wanted cakes for her very own Valentines breakfast with herself. Unfortunately she didnt get around to collecting them til later on. So I am assuming she had a nice romantic evening in with her cakes.
Chocolate Guinness Cake with pink glittery buttericing. Piped black skull and crossbones & a broken heart.
And these two were for Zoe for her boyfriend. She requested a blue and white colour scheme as he is a Leicester City fan.
Chocolate Guinness Cake with white glittery buttericing and blue fondant hearts.
Please excuse the photo quality. All done on my crappy samsung phone. Which, may I add, appears to be on its last legs.

Hmph. Boo. Hmph. Meh
I feel horrible. Truely horrible. On edge with bad butterflies. I love good butterflies. I truly hate bad butterflies.
I wonder if it is just me? Do normal people just think... I can't have it so just don't worry about it. I don't know why I don't have that mentality.
I put myself out there yesterday. I got shot down. I feel like I just want to hide under a rock. You should never run away right... but I just want to be anywhere but here.

but you give me nothing to hold on to." -

Baking Crisis...
He sorted me out. Helped me bake new cakes and generally did things to make the process a wee bit quicker. He stayed with me til 3am but then had to dander home. I was up til 4am. BUT the cakes were done! And look pretty. I, on the other hand, do not look in any way pretty. I need some of that 8 hour cream all these celebs harp on about.
HELLO ELIZABETH ARDEN? Its me Bitsy, would you do me a flavour and send me a crate of your fab 8 hour cream? Apparently it helps your skin and makes you not look so much like you have had 2 hours sleep instead of the appropriate 8? Well I think I would be a fair candidate for you to re-trial this shizz on because I never sleep and mostly look like I have been punched in the eyes. Elizabeth! ELIZABETH! HELLLLLPPPP MEEEEE! Thanks.
I will post photos of cakes because I have some from ages ago too. I dont know why my photo thing on the computer is buggered. I will have to bluetooth them to Lars laptop (thanks to some advice from lovely fellow bloggers) and then save them to a stick and then put them on my little laptop (cuz I tried I dont think it does the bluetooth thing) and then go to the boys and abuse his internet. Phew. I know how to do things the long way!

Yesterday...
I was gonna post two again today like last week but i think I will save it instead.
I'm in a moood today. I was in a mood last night. I feel like I've been in a mood for over a week.
I tried to make a couple of cheap ass little bookcases last night. Dont buy argos value book cases. They are shite. You try to screw the nail in and the wood splits so I have two shit book cases in my room. You cant really tell from a distance. But then again you cant really get that much of a distance from them in my little room.
I was trying to talk to the boy because I needed cheering and normally just seeing his lovely face does just that but he was just an a. hole and made me cry. Good one dickhead.
Sick of everything right now. Got cakes to do tonight and a music quiz to attend. Too much to do too little time.
Sorrrrry for the moan. Cheer me!
