The Hobbit Hole XXXV - ...is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

Posted on 01/03/2008 6:35:58 PM PST 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!

I have to clean the entire house before people start arriving. Tomorrow night. And the towel rack in the bathroom broke. And I’m still sick.

I wonder, if you can take tylenol every 4-6 hours and ibuprofin every 4-6 hours, can I take tylenol 2 hours after I’ve taken ibuprofin? Because ungh.

It’s been long enough for me that I can’t remember the names of half the minor characters. One goal for the weekend is to go through my own story and take notes.

I also have thirty some pages to transcribe, one way or another.

And I’m apparently getting old, ‘cause the typewriter that has the equivalent of 10 pt. font is bothering me when transcribing. The 12 pt font equivalent is much easier on the eyes.

What company are you having this time around?

My house is a mess. And I have stacks of paper everywhere. But now I have sourdough starter. More mess! Yay!

I always use 12, 10 is too small. I have several things to do in mine too, just hope I can make some progress.

The AnimeIowa staff folkses. We’ll have two people Friday night and then a party Saturday after the meeting. Variable numbers of folks sometimes end up on our couches after the parties.

Yeah, I don’t need to get things to in-law-cleanliness standards but we need to vaccuum, pick stuff up, clean bathrooms, fold laundry...

Due to the vast differences in BPs in my arms, they're going to do an ultrasound of my arteries in my upper extremities.

I guess they're looking for atherosclerosis.
