I have totally flaked on this, but Bart pointed out that it isn't "the 7 consecutive day meme". ;)

the 7 days meme:
Day one • a picture
Day two • a song
Day three • a book
Day four • a site
Day five • a youtube clip
Day six • a quote
Day seven • whatever tickles your fancy

It's hard to pick a book! )

And a bonus meme:



Your Primary Mood Color is Blue



You are a sensitive and reflective person. You have a good intuition for emotions.

You can sense what people are feeling and even sometimes what they are thinking.



You communicate well, and you're also a good listener. You cherish your friends, and every word they say is important to you.

You are always there for the people you love, and you expect the same in return. You crave deep connection and understanding.




Oh, wait, and it's the first of the month!

Song of the Month time! )

...And I think that catches me up on the memes? :P

My journal name is: Cissie. ...Because that's my name.

My title is: "Daylight is good at arriving at the right time." It's from All Things Must Pass by George Harrison:
All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So, I must be on my way
And face another day

Now the darkness only stays the night-time
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good at arriving at the right time
It's not always going to be this grey


I like those lyrics. They're hopeful. (And for what it's worth, I picked this title a long time ago, when things... kind of sucked. They got better, just like the song says.)

My subtitle is: "Hope is floating on the breeze" From Waiting in the Weeds by the Eagles:
I've been stumbling through some dark places
Now I'm following the plow
I know I've fallen out of your good graces
It's alright now

And I've been waiting in the weeds
Waiting for the summer rain to fall upon the
Wild birds scattering the seeds
Answering the calling of the tide's eternal tune
The phases of the moon
The chambers of the heart
The egg and dart of small gray
Spiders spinning in the dark
In spite of all the times the web is torn apart

And I've been waiting in the weeds
Waiting for the time to come around again and
Hope is floating on the breeze
Carrying my soul high up above the ground and
I've been keeping to myself
Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing


My friends page is called: "I get by with a little help from my friends." Because I do. Also a Beatles lyric. Here, the song as used in Across the Universe.

My default userpic is: I like the colors in it, and I think it works as an illustration of me, if that makes any sense.

And that color meme going around )

Like Cassie said--interesting.

3.) Nothing fixes a thing so intensely in the memory as the wish to forget it. Michel de Montaigne



1.) If we fall, we don't need self-recrimination or blame or anger - we need a reawakening of our intention and a willingness to recommit, to be whole-hearted once again. Sharon Salzberg

2.) You must learn to face the fact, always, that you choose to do what you do, and that everything you do affects not only you but others. Holly Lisle

Post a CONFESSION Meme
notarrowette: (Cissie has a secret [AB])
Hey guys--I know it's short notice, but Bart's birthday is on Saturday and I thought it would be nice to do something for him. Like maybe surprise him with a party--it's been such a busy week with the bakery opening, I kept meaning to mention this and not having the time! Anyway, how does a party at the bakery on Saturday sound? I know it would mean a LOT to Bart; presents aren't required, just bring yourself!

Let me know if you can make it, or if you can help me set up. I'll need someone to help keep Bart busy and away from me and the bakery on Saturday afternoon for a few hours, too. Tabby, maybe you can mention this to some of Bart's other friends? I haven't met them all yet.

So anyway! RSVP here, I guess (yay for the internet!). You don't have to stay long, just stop by the bakery sometime... after 5? on Saturday to say Happy Birthday to Bart. If you have any ideas, I'm definitely open to suggestions!


(Um... I know some of you might not be in a party mood right now, but it is Bart's birthday and it would mean a lot to him? I don't know guys, let me know what you think.)

Thanks, everyone! ♥

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.
