The Hobbit Hole VIII - Still round the corner we may meet...

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Still round the corner we may meet...

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

It's 10:30 and I've got to jump in the shower and get ready for my first day back to (*shudder*) work tomorrow.

My girls are still up and hyper as all get out for some reason, so I've got to wrestle them to bed first.

Talk to you all tomorrow! (((HOBBITHOLE)))

I'm not entirely sure - it's ten years after the Meiji Restoration. 1870s, maybe.

Cool! I'm interested in that period partly because that's when the Black Dragons were becoming active--very interesting group that's very useful for generating fiction ideas:

If you send Bakshi, I will burn it. Can one burn cds?

Ok, two Ranma and it's bedtime. I'll check in now and then until that time.

You say you want me to burn a Bakshi cd for you? :)

Okay. BTW, how long left in your semester?--you must be getting close!!! :)

WOO HOO! So are are all a go! I think it will be ~really~ neat.

ecurbh and I were in third tier on the side for the concert we went to at smooch moot. It isn't a very deep concert hall, and I think we will be able to see and it will sound great. In audience pictures we've seen of the show there is a great big screen too, where they show clips from the movies, as well as close ups of Shore and soloists.

We should meet for dinner beforehand... Penny's a local and could scout out a spot. Maybe we could carpool up from Tacoma?

We'll all fit in one of my cars (I think we have all fit in one of my cars). Think I'll take that day off...usually on Thursdays I have to work late...so I'll just not show at all that day! We know lots of great places to eat in Seattle too.

If Ramius's life is normal then, he would be up in Bellevue that day, Penny will already be there, so it would just be ecurbh and me and we could meet you in Tacoma.

Two weeks. Two stinkin' weeks and I'm free. I can almost see it... the end is in sight...

I only had one Ranma left on this disk, so I'll call it quits for tonight. See you tomorrow evening, once I get back from work, probably.

I'm glad we finally got around to ordering tickets! I really want to go. I just love this score. Thankfully, they kept adding shows so there were still tickets!

When Mr. Procrastinate here first found out about the concert (in November, I think) they only had the Fri and Sat night shows. Then in about Febuary they added the Sat matinee, and I put off buying 'em again. Didn't think to check again till today, when I saw the concerts mentioned elsewhere. We figgered we better jump on it this time before it was too late!

I ordered third tier, so I think that means I'll be near you. I don't have anyone I'm going with, so I'm glad you guys will be there! :)
