The Hobbit Hole XXXII - Sweet is the sound of falling rain
The Freeper Hobbit Hole Blog ^ | December 1, 2006

Posted on 12/01/2006 12:55:15 PM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

The Point was closed due to a plumbing malfunction (better to not know) so ~sniff~... no boobs and joes today. Went instead to the Mexican place and had fajitas. :~)

That's unfortunate.

Well... I've loafed around the hotel quite successfully all weekend. Just never got the momentum to go ~out~.

I think there's a certain potential that I may end up a hermit.

Cut to two hermits on a hillside.

First Hermit: Hello, are you a hermit by any chance?

Second Hermit: Yes that's right. Are you a hermit?

First Hermit: Yes, I certainly am.

Second Hermit: Well I never. What are you getting away from?

First Hermit: Oh you know, the usual - people, chat, gossip, you know.

Second Hermit: Oh I certainly do - it was the same with me. I mean there comes a time when you realize there's no good frittering your life away in idleness and trivial chit-chat. Where's your cave?

First Hermit: Oh, up the goat track, first on the left.

Second Hermit: Oh they're very nice up there, aren't they?

First Hermit: Yes they are, I've got a beauty.

Second Hermit: A bit drafty though, aren't they?

First Hermit: No, we've had ours insulated.

Second Hermit: Oh yes.

First Hermit: Yes, I used birds' nests, moss and oak leaves round the outside.

Second Hermit: Oh, sounds marvellous.

First Hermit: Oh it's a treat, it really is, 'cos otherwise those stone caves can be so grim.

Second Hermit: Yes they really can be, can't they? They really can.

First Hermit: Oh yes.

Speaking of cats, I bought mine a vacuum cleaner box. Doesn't have the nifty red trim your cat motel has, though.

I have to assemble the innards for my own use, though. Ungh.

On the plus side, it was twenty bucks off, plus they gave me a $20 gift card, and I shop there enough for it to really be handy. So that's good.

Tam is checking the opening out as we speak. And Halvah's already deep inside.

Got the headlight taken care of. Was a loose connection. So I've still never had a headlight replaced.
