I had a gigantic chocolate chip brownie for breakfast, washed down with a cafe mocha. Can anyone say sugar rush?

A big part of it is my fault. After all, instead of immediately crawling back into bed, I paused at my computer to blog about being tired. The bigger part of it, however, lies solely at the feet of my nemesis: Toddler Tummy.
