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!

It’s kind of tempting, I admit...but I don’t really have a place for it...

But if no one claims it on Craigslist, maybe I’ll reconsider. I wanna put that desk where the TV is anyway, and rearrange that whole room...

Receiving a work fax as we speak, so the new machine works... no need to send a test fax I guess!

Sounds good...but the nephrologist should weigh in with medication advice before the two weeks is up, no?

Do you have a separate number for your fax? We’ve got a printer with fax capability, but we’ve never figured out how to set it up.

Well, and it is kinda big. Our new one does all the same stuff, but it’s half the size, it’s kinda cute :~)

I posted it... I’ll see if it gets any hits.

Ungh...so is I. I can identify with her.

... I got scolded (nicely) for not knowing what to do about something by one person, and therefore ended up crying in front of another person who I'd really have rather not done that in front of. *sigh*

I need some chamomile or something.

Yeah - the fax has it’s own line.

If you share a line, that was part of the set up when we installed the software. Not sure how to work it though.

Oh dear... Got something stronger than chamomile over here... in fact... I think it’s yours. :~]

I just need to sit down with the manual on ours. We used to have a separate phone line for fax and Internet, but we ditched that when we went to cable. May have to reinvest.

I had trouble getting the wireless part of our printer resynced with Verizon. It couldn’t find the wireless connection. When all else fails, shut down and start again.

mmmm....something stronger...

Although right now it’d just put me to sleep. Something about only 3 hours of sleep last night.

Well, you’d need some method of switching it over, I’d think.

I get a lot of faxes for work... It’s how everything is done, so I have to have a dedicated line.

Yeah - but it would help with feeling stressed out about it. ;~)

Yeah, I’m just not sure it’s worth the cost of another line. If wife ~has~ to fax something for work, she can take it down to her boss, three houses down.
