The Hobbit Hole XXXIV - But better than rain or rippling streams...

Posted on 08/07/2007 7:52:15 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

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!

Oh, I made a 92% on my Basic Cardiac Rhythm Monitoring final exam.

So that’s good.

Heh...even if.

...I'm actually doing a fair amount of stuff he doesn't generally do, for one; so I can do it my way. ;-) Plus he doesn't sign the checks...

Here at my mom's fer a refresher course in everything we do wrong. ;-)

And...a bit more than slightly annoyed that wife's hours and expenses didn't hit the bank account today...but we'll survive

So, there's that.

Good morning Corin...

Rosie... what’s our plan? 7:45ish again?

Yeah.

Though, actually, I think 8 will give us plenty of time. They already tagged my key and put my info in the computer, so it should just be a matter of dropping it all off rather than waiting around like I did yesterday. And I still made it to work on time yesterday.
