The Hobbit Hole X - That none have seen but we alone.

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...That none have seen but we alone.

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!

Evening.

I'm watching some Brits trying to explain cricket on Candid Camera.

We're expecting T-storms and possibly tornados tonight. Can I sleep through them again?

Vin Diesel... well. He could read me the newspaper with that voice. *alas* He wasn't all serious- the guy has comedic insticts!

Yeah, he reminds me a bit of Bruce Willis; doesn't take himself too seriously in the roles I've seen him in, except for A Man Apart, and I guess that's because of the nature of the story. We're gonna see it tomorrow night. Clare is at a sleepover birthday party tonight, and we want to wait so we can all go.

I read a review of it in the NY Times; they sniffed at it, so I reckon I'll enjoy it! LOL!

Why yes.

"You may go into the fields or down the lane, but don't go into Mr. McGregor's garden: your father had an accident there; he was put in a pie by Mrs. McGregor."

I know I wouldn't! Then again, we get some pretty nasty storms through here and I don't hear them, so maybe I'm lying.

Tornadoes scare me though!

Don't like that wacky-terbacky.

I still haven't found a dust gun for my Sevin dust, so I'll have to squirt it out of a mustard dispenser.

A local station is showing Airplane! tonight.

"A local station is showing Airplane! tonight."

Surely, you can't be serious!

*Sigh* I think that's why my sister hasn't come to visit yet. I think that tornado in Wizard of Oz made a permanent impression.

As soon as I got hold of a CD burner for the 'puter I started a long-term ('cuz it's time-intensive, even without a life) project of transferring old family LP's to CD. Among them are 4 Potter stories (on 2 LP's) dramatized and narrated by Vivien Leigh that have been lying around various houses since I were about 6. I could just about recite those 4 stories to you.
