The Hobbit Hole XXX - Then world behind and home ahead...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/28/2006 10:14:11 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Then world behind and home ahead

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!

I can email you from the phone. I won't be getting there until around noon-ish on Saturday.

Talon's gonna be too busy to set me up with his laptop.

I would suggest however, that any photos be posted in the Yahoo pilantir and not here.

Not a bad suggestion! Since none will have been posted with the subject's approval :~)

Good morning everyone...it's Friday!

If all goes well today, this evening I'm going over to WK's town, and tomorrow morning we'll be on the road up to my Mom's.

I want to bring WK home Sunday evening and return here Monday afternoon. Mom's going to try to keep us until Monday morning. In either case I'll be back around here Monday evening.

Have a good weekend, eveyone!

I dunno how busy he'll be at noon... I keep wondering what it is I'll be doing between noon and two, after all, it doesn't take that long to get dressed. Even in the Big Shiny Poofy White Dress of Doom.

Good morning!

It's wet out there.

We lost power around 7 a.m. so I just went on to thegym to get read (and yes, I worked out first). Power's back on.

We're praying for trees to stay away from houses.

Officemate and I decided that we obviously didn't get the memo about staying home today. The place is deserted. I'm not motivated. Can I go home yet?

I have a feeling today is gonna be a day I'm sneaking here and gutenberg.org because there's nothing else to do...but feeling roundly guilty about it.

I hate that.

Can I break a few computers instead? Hmm...

We had "liberal leave" policy in effect.

So, naturally ~I~ had to come to work.

Urgh. I just got a phone call, "Remember that short report you owe me...?"

ACK! At least now I have something to do that can be accomplished today. Everything else won't be finished for weeks.

On the other hand, I spend every evening arguing with RATS on the Virginia blogosphere.

Then every day, I have the same arguments here with the people on "our side."

I don't get it.

I just don't get why people bother to argue with me at all. I'm right. They're wrong. Give up already!! ;)
