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!
In Basic, our assembly area was behind the mess hall. Before getting in formation, while everybody else was hanging around smokin' and jokin', I'd rush into the back door of the mess hall, where the ice maker was.
I'd fill up my helmet with crushed ice, jam it on my head, and then march out with everyone else. While everyone else was drenched in sweat, I was drenched in cold water, at least for the first ten minutes.
I would like to be a tribble today, that is, curl up in my favorite chair with a good book and maybe take a nap.
mmmmmm...nap....
I don’t wanna go to werk.
I don’t wanna go to werk.
I don’t wanna go to werk.
(seems like I’ve heard that somewhere before)
Werk... mmm... so far one day has been productive and one semi-productive so maybe I can extend the streak.
You painted The Bug purple!!

They’re kilting them younger and younger these days.
Cute!
Cuteness overload!!
I can take early retirement in 338 days...
So...starting your new career in 339 days? ;-)
(Maybe sooner...)
Maybe then you can come visit. We *might* even buy you a salmon.
I could do that.
Or you could just kill the thread...
Calendar or working days?..
Calendar. Of course I gotta have something else lined up.
But I’m workin’ on it.
~sigh~
I remember sittin’ here in the evenings and not being able to keep up with the posts...
Sorry... some of us have better things to do now ;p
