"Unicorns may go unrescued for a long time, but not forever; a happy ending cannot come in the middle of the story.” Peter Beagle, The Last Unicorn

I'm cheating and posting them together, mainly because I was too tired to post the quote yesterday and today I'm still tired. Oops.

...It is officially FRIDAY!! YAY!!!

Your result for The Brutally Honest Personality Test...
Pushover - ISFJ



Hah. Nice one. How does it feel to know that you're barely unique? Of all the personality types you could have had, you ended up with the most common in all of America. In a group of 100 Americans, 12.8 of them will be just like you.

I bet you feel sorry for that one person missing 20% of his body. I bet you want to help him out, don't you? Cause that's what you like to do, isn't it? Help people. You don't want to save the world. You just want to help people out.

Sound pretty good so far? Sorry, but you're just plain pathetic. You let people walk all over you all the time, because everyone knows that you just can't say "no." When you get time, email me your contact details. It's always good to know where I can find another helping hand.

What the hell is your problem? GET A LIFE! Stop cleaning other people's houses and go out and have a bit of fun every now and then. Sure, you feel responsible for doing what needs to be done, but sometimes it's just not you who needs to do it.

You're dependable, predictable and practicaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...

Whoops, that was me falling asleep on the keyboard. You're just not the most fun person. I wouldn't worry too much about it. You can go hang out with your other 12.8 mates, helping out at the soup kitchen together. Woohoo!

*****************

.....Ooookay, clearly brutally honest meant brutally honest! Or just plain mean.

If you want snuggles from Cissie, leave me a comment, and if you have any premise or prompt that's great.

A genre would be great too, i.e. crack, fluff, angst etc. But if you just want to leave me pairings and make me figure it out, I can roll with that too.

Pick as many as you'd like! Don't know how much I'll get to before I decide to stop. And any verse can play!

[...I will also say that I might let you prompt me with future stuff. Which might be a mistake, but.]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KON!

Can you swing by the bakery around noon?

( Presents! )

So, I totally meant to post this yesterday, but I was tired and easily distracted last night. But! I wanted to say

THANK YOU!

The Frenzied Spork's grand opening was a HUGE success, and it was so wonderful to see everybody yesterday! Thank you all for coming in to support us; it meant soooo much to have all of our friends and family there for the bakery's first day.

( Just a few pictures )

And guys, thank you sooo much for the balloons, flowers and pictures and shirts! We love them. And especially thank you for trying to make everything perfect for us and for coming by for the toast after closing.
