Ran Out Of Sugar, Can I Substitute With Powdered?

My first attempt at making a cake is failing dismally and I haven't even gotten to icing the darn thing yet 
Since my first 2 sheets were completely nasty, I've run out of regular sugar, I do however have half of Walmart's entire supply of powdered sugar as I was expecting to have more difficulty in the icing department. Can I use some of that? If so how do I figure it for volume?
I have about a cup of regular sugar I need another 3/4c.
I can't get any more sugar until tomorrow afternoon as they have my flaming road shut for a Mardi Gras parade. So I'm trapped until its over
Well I'm trying to make yellow cake, its not like I picked a hard cake to start out with
First it came out tasting horrible, like it had too much baking powder, then when I went to re-do it, I ran out of sugar.
I found this link on the web http://www.ehow.com/how_114372_substitute-missing-ingredients.html
And so I subbed using 1 3/4 cup of powdered sugar for the cup of granulated I was short.
So far the batter looks and tastes okay.
I'll let y'all know in 40 mins if it cooked okay too...
