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!

Exactly.

It’s probably not as good at clearing sinuses.

But then again...after awhile, would you really care?

Hm.

Life’s too short to drink white wine.

But it was open.

I saw ya home early... sorry you don’t feel good.

That siamese cat was in the barn last night and I saw him today in the paddock... so whoever he is, he’s hanging around.

I have Sudafed here but I don’t want to take it because it always keeps me awake.

Do you have a Deals store near you? I go there to buy doggy poop pick-up bags, but they sometimes have good stuff for sale. I was able to get a bunch of freezer-to-microwave Rubbermaid containers 2 for $1, rather than 4 for $3.79 at the grocery store. But I digress.

I picked up a Milkbone Christmas pack filled with doggy frap, and one thing was a tiny collar with a Milkbone kerchief on it. Of course it wasn’t big enough for Gypsy so I put it on Miss Annie. She looks totally *pwned* with a red doggy pawprint kerchief with the Milkbone logo on it. She is not amused.

Poor Miss Annie!

I’m sure there’s a Deals around somewhere....I remember seeing one but I can’t remember where.

The cuss word slipped out before I knew what was happening.

Ruh Roh!

We're watching the finals of the Westminster Dog Show. An Australian Shepherd won the Herding group. Isn't that what Jack and Sadie are?

The 15" Beagle won the Hound group. He's just a cutie! The Standard and Toy poodles just look silly with those foofy haircuts!
