Yummy cupcakes!

SO.
Yesterday I made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate buttercream frosting and ghirardelli milk chocolate chips, they came out magically with a sort of a brownie taste to them, and the frosting was delicious, I must admit however that as I was making the batter I was mixing the dry ingredients in a third at a time, right as I was reaching for the bowl I caught my elbow in the lip and sent the last third of them flying all down my apron, my pant leg and across the kitchen (its so small there was nowhere to go but everywhere!) and I had a little bit of a meltdown panic attack, but my mama came to the rescue and helped me figure out the amounts to replace what I'd lost which worked out better than I'd thought it would. Following the first meltdown I was scooping the butter at room temp(pretty melty) into my mixing bowl to make the butter cream when half of it decided it thought my foot looked like a much better place to be than the bowl. Suffice it to say that due to the fact I don't wear shoes when not necessary I had quite a bit of butter between all of my toes. Now the reason this was all so meltdowny I should share is that I'm used to having much much more counter space, and the entire household besides myself have been on the edge the last few months while we've been figuring out our new financial situation.
