Things!

[notarrowette]

State of the Cissie so does not sound as cool as State of the Bart. And Cissie Status doesn't sound great either. What's up in Cissie-land? Yeah, no. I am reminded why I went through a phase in which I asked everyone to call me Ralph.

ANYWAY. Mother's Day--not so bad! Bart, thank you. I would say I couldn't have done it without you, but I probably could have--I just didn't want to. And you won Mom over, so--yay! ♥ It meant a lot to have you with me.

I don't know that she's completely sold on the bakery yet, but I'm waiting for the day she shows up with billboard mock-ups. (You think I'm joking.)

Aaaaaaand in other news--Cassie and I went shopping yesterday. My living room looks like an LL Bean catalog threw up in here. Seriously, guys. We are totally almost all set. Hopefully we can fit all of this gear in the van with us. ;)

I like Cissie better than Ralph...

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Well, yes, me too. ;)

[nokidflash.livejournal.com]

I hate to say this, but I kinda like Kon's suggestion.

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Traitor!

[nokidflash.livejournal.com]

Awwwwwwwwwww, but I wanna Ciss you! ;)

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

That's... just... SO wrong. On many levels.

[nokidflash.livejournal.com]

Wait... why?

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

I don't know! Turning my name into a verb is weird?

[nokidflash.livejournal.com]

You're weird!

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

You're weirder!

[nokidflash.livejournal.com]

You're weirdest.

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Nuh uh!

[nokidflash.livejournal.com]

♥

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Oh, you.

[ihavettk.livejournal.com]

Ralph? Heh.

You could go with "Ciss and Tell." I'm probably gonna go with "Warning: Kontents Hot" or something. Konversations? Kontinuity? Kondoms? There are a lot of words that begin with the sound of my name.

Are you still mad at me?

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Try being a kindergartner with Cissie for a name. Kids can be mean.

I am going to groan and ignore you now.

Not as mad.

[ihavettk.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't know. Never went to Kindergarten.

Bart likes it!

I'm sorry.

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

You don't really have to have been to kindergarten to figure out how my name got me teased.

He didn't say anything about liking the suggestions for you.

I know.

[ihavettk.livejournal.com]

Okay, point. Kids suck?

Okay, point. But still!

:) ?

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Not always and not all the time.

Uh huh.

I'm working on it, Kon. Have you fixed things with everyone else yet?

[ihavettk.livejournal.com]

True.

I've apologized to everyone. And I think we're talking tonight. I'm worried about Tim.

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Good. Apologizing is a good start. When you talk, try to think before you speak.

Yeah. We all are.

[ihavettk.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I'll try. I'm so bad at this.

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Just try thinking about how what you say affects them.

[ihavettk.livejournal.com]

I'm gonna. I hate hurting you guys.

[deductionmaster.livejournal.com]

I'm glad to hear your Mother's Day went 'not so bad'.

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Tim.

[Locked]

How're you?

[deductionmaster.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, Cissie.

[Locked]

I'm going to be fine.

[Locked]

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Going to be, which means you aren't, and fine by whose standards? If they're Bruce's, that's not fine at all.

Just--try to remember that you deserve to be happy, Tim.

[Locked]

[deductionmaster.livejournal.com]

I didn't mean that I'm not fine. ...Bruce tends to be right about some things.

Thank you for saying that.

[Locked]

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

Mmhm. I speak Tim, remember?

What kind of things is he right about?

I mean it.

[Locked]

[deductionmaster.livejournal.com]

I remember.

...Nothing you'd agree with, I'm sure. He feels that we, himself and I, aren't meant to live our lives a certain way.

I know.

[Locked]

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

...You're probably right. That certain way means alone and without being happy, or something like it, right?

...You don't really agree with him on that, do you?

[Locked]

[deductionmaster.livejournal.com]

Something like that, yes.

I don't know.

[Locked]

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

You really don't know, or you don't want to admit that you agree? :\

What does he say? I mean--why does he say it? I don't know. I'm trying to understand before telling you he's completely full of shit without knowing why I'm saying it?

[Locked]

[deductionmaster.livejournal.com]

It doesn't matter at this point, Cissie.

..."We lose that which we waste time loving."
I'm not sure I neccesarily believe that part of it. I don't think love is a waste of time. But...I can see his point that being alone might be part of who I'm supposed to be.

[Locked]

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

It always matters what you think.

Oh, Tim. It doesn't have to be that way. I'm glad you don't believe that it's a waste of time, at least.

[Locked]

[deductionmaster.livejournal.com]

I'm not always sure that what I'm thinking...is me thinking, Cissie. Not anymore. I don't know if that makes any sense, but it is what it is.

...Maybe not.
