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!
Hah, good catch!
It’s gorgeous here, too! I’m eating my yogurt and granola, and fixing to paint the wall in the kitchen behind the refrigerator. SirKit is installing an adjunct power supply in the thing, because the one that came with it is woefully underpowered. He was searching on the web for folks who’d had the same problem as we, and found out about that power problem. So I figured while he had it out of the hole, I might as well put a coat of paint on it. I want to see what this new color looks like, anyway!
Hey inkyfingers...I got your note! ;-)
What Corin said. Praying for ya....
Ungh...
Cold and foggy here. My Firefox weather thingie says it’s in the 40s right now. Meant bed was nice and warm. I slept through my alarm clock. Fortunately, I couldn’t sleep through the Halvah alarm that went off shortly after the usual one.
She ran out of water, and you’d have thought the world was ending.
I got a nice early start today but I can tell it’s going to be very not productive.
S’ok, I’m in a grand mood.
Did something happen? Or is it just a nice day, just ‘cause? ;-)
It’s a good day, it’s “halfway” through my short week, other things are good.
Other things?
:-)
I am obsessed in a mighty way.
While I was in the MRI machine, they put these earphones on me and let me pick a CD. I picked an old WOW album.
The machine thunks like it’s falling in on you, but I could just make out the pennywhistle in this song.

I had never heard it before and was just enthralled by it. Of course the pennywhistle caught my attention, but the lyrics really were inspiring.
Here’s a bit of news. The neurologist called me. Already! Usually they don’t call for several days after a test, but this time she called me first thing this morning! Wants me to come in at 5:30pm tomorrow! I usually have to wait weeks (sometimes up to a month!) to get in to see a doctor.
Maybe she’s done with what she’s going to do with me and wants to send me on my way...
~chuckling~
Them’s some big fans.
I'm praying she figures out what's going on and has plans to FIX it!
Yes! That would be super-nice. If she said “Well, this is the problem...here’s what we’re going to do to fix it...you’ll be yourself again by Christmas.”
Man. That would be schweet.
I can’t even act quirky or eccentric anymore, for fear someone will think I’m nuts and it’s normally my main coping skill!!!
~chuckling~
I wonder if this means good news or bad? :-\
Here's hoping it means answers, at least!
Well, nix that...the neurologist office just called back and cancelled my appt. Said they need a CT Scan of my brain...to confirm. That’s all they said. Didn’t say what they’re confirming. Said they’d scehdule an appt after I get the CT scan.
I think they want to confirm that I did indeed have a small bleed, as I have suspected all along. We’ll see.
When do you go in for the CT scan?
Yeah, folks were chuckling at me admiring them way up high on a big warehouse ceiling.
