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!

C'mon, don't hold back now, Ramius. Tell how you ~really~ feel!

Well, my folks just called. They all arrived at the motel, and are getting the kids to bed.

Time to get me showered and to bed too!

Good night, all!

Don't hold in your emotions, Ramius. Tell us how you really feel. It isn't healthy to keep it all in....

I'd keep typing but would probably just get myself in trouble.

I don't see why....

ecurbh's folks are on the ground and in Gig Harbor, so we are ~finally~ actually signin' off..... Good night, see you in the morning! We'll be meeting them around 8 for breakfast, and be out to the beach afterwards!

He's Chairman of the frickin' board. So his opinion, nomatter how useless, still somehow matters.

I see... now I know of whom we speak. He continues to be a thorn in your side. I didn't realize the Afghanistan thing went all the way to COB level!

So, has the Afghan thing just been going on since you mentioned it last week? Or is this a long running thing that you hadn't mentioned? And weren't you getting that as fixed up as it could get last night?

You need that massage. ASAP.

GMTA, in more ways than one.

I'm heading to bed myself. I'm hoping to get about 6 hours of sleep before having to get up and get Becky to camp!

Might hafta take you up on that! But only if it's a time when I don't have to work. *sigh* I kinda doubt I can sweet talk 'em into more time off during a school semester. Things is *not* good at work right now.

Well, I live daily at the CFO (my boss) level. I get to interact routinely at the CEO level. This problem doesn't actually (or rightly) go to the COB level, but since the COB is such a buttmunch, these things happen. It just means that things get the attention of the board that don't rightly belong there. It makes the CEO crazy, which makes the CFO (my boss) crazy... which makes me crazy. $#!t does in fact run downhill. :-)

This, I am sure you have known longer than you've had this job. Nope, not making light of the problem, I had just had the notion that the Afghanistan thing was sorta a PITA thing that fell in your lap in the last day or so and didn't know it had made such a hugh impact. But, as you explain it, I can see the interaction.

Sorry. I can post some more of those back scratches. I can listen while you rant. Or you can wait - oh, about 45 hours and I'll scratch your back for real. Can ya wait that long?

Of course, if you'd like I can send an email out of nowhere to anyone in the line of command there and tell 'em how the cow ate the cabbage - without mentioning you of course... so all they know is that they've been appropriately rebuked by a G.R.I.T.S. :-)
