I woud like to complain for a second while being FULLY aware these are complete non issues, otherwise known as "white problems."

1. I have a lingering cold of some sort that occassionally makes it difficult for me to breathe through one nostril. This has been occurring for approximately one month. I live in California and somehow I've managed a cold in 70 degree weather. Though in my defense it's been more like 60 lately.

2. There's this weird semi sore thing happening to my right knee. I imagine it's the type of thing old people use to tell when it's about to rain.

3. There's a small zit on my cheek. Really face? You're gonna do that? OK fine.

4. I spent most of my day at work tracking down bagels that got shipped from New York which turned out to be not the cat's pajamas. They were ok but I know fresh NY bagels when I see them. These were NOT. I coulda picked that ish up at the store and pretended they were from the Empire State. (Also - on the NY topic, I know the license plate got changed like 5 years ago but not a fan of the blue and white. The white one with the red statue of liberty was much cooler.)

5. There are WAY too many cupcakes in my fridge right now. Yeah, I went there. Actually I went to a "cupcake camp" over the weekend with a friend. As we entered we were both like, "yeah, this is happening..." It was basically a mini conference event where people around the LA area had tables that sampled their cupcakes. There were TONS of them. I read online that you pay 15 bucks and get to eat cupcakes. I was down. Showed up and it was 20 bucks for 5 cupcakes which you pay the vendors with using tickets. 5 tickets = 5 cupcakes. OK this was NOT online but whatevs I drove down. When in Rome, right?

So my friend Jenna and I enter. We got there as people were starting to close up for the day and it was basically the best time ever because people were just GIVING the cupcakes away. They didn't care about the tickets. It was either give to us or the homeless people outside. And let's be honest, we were much cuter. It turned out to be the best 20 bucks ever spent. They gave us containers but we had to get more and then some. It was kind of ridiculous. Please observe:

Leaving the place with arms full of cupcakes was awesome at first but then you get home and fill the fridge with it and the sobering reality sets in. "Oh my God. I'm going to wind up eating ALL of these..." I pawned some off at work but there were so many I wanted to try and most people frown upon eating the rest of a half eaten cupcake.

I shall cap the complaints at five for today. You're welcome.
