The Hobbit Hole XIX - Tomorrow we may come this way...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 01/27/2005 9:59:05 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Tomorrow we may come this way...

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!

Bandwidth ain't the issue... it takes just as much to transmit their 'replacement' image. Ugh, have I mentioned I HATE websites that do that?

Here lets try it again...

It's gone now. But it was pretty bad. That's why I have a feeling it will be back. :-(

G'mornin', Ruthy...

When my gallbladder acted up, the pain started in my back between my shoulder blades, and then moved to my chest just under my breastbone. Worst pain I've ever felt, and was similiar to most of the symptoms of a heart attack. Interestingly enough, when I went to the emergency room my gallbladder was the third thing they checked.

Whatever it was in your case, I hope it doesn't come back!

Same attitude, different sex. He was all smiles as he fished that needle around under my skin searching for the vein he destroyed!

I should find someone with a picture phone and show it to you all! It's hideous.

Some of the folks at work say I should sue, but that's stupid.

Petey the Don't-Sue-People Panda wouldn't want you to do so. "That makes me a saaaaaad panda!"

Yes, it was the ER. *shudder*

It was horrible. And the bedside manner of the staff was atrocious!

My hands or arm always swell up and turn purple. I have hard veins to find. When I was having surgery, they tried and poked and finally when my right hand and arm were swollen and purple they called a baby nurse to come and do the IV in my remaining hand ;~D It swelled up too, but he got it in there. But I had two balloons for hands for awhile.

They said it's not that my veins are small, it's that they are two curvy. They also said that me becoming an intravenous drug addict would be next to impossible. ;~D
