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!

Our company store has started stocking these. Mostly the planes but they have some others too. I had a little biplane and just picked up the Apache. Got to get me that aircraft carrier one of these days.

Cut your losses now and find a new place when she gets out? Seems like the best plan.

It’s a good plan except for the fact that she’s in the best place available and she’s happy there. Still, it’s a conversation we’ll need to have.

The sidebar’s all hinky again. I just thought I’d share that so someone else would be annoyed...

This week has been 10000 years long.

I get to spend the whole evening doing homework. Ugh. Maybe I should let Talon do it for me, it’s all circuit fault testing nonsense.

I should probably start organizing the house a bit tonight.

The cable guy is coming on Saturday, and I suppose it should at least be tidy enough that he can get to the area where the installation stuff has to go.
