The Hobbit Hole XXXVII - ...Down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed!

Posted on 09/25/2008 6:43:34 AM PDT 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!

Hate to leave a thing unfinished....

Remember that when we chat in the morning. That's all I'm sayin'.

She’s good, doing the usual baby stuff. I’m getting used to the whole mommy thing.

Well, at least Jack didn’t actually convert, so far as we know!

He didn’t have to. But the implication that he found peace in Islam while all the white guy Americans are murdering thousands, along with all the “we’re going green” lectures we got throughout the season, and Janine Igoramousalo is really just more than I want to deal with anymore.

A well-written plot could have redeemed some of that. But alas, that was not to be found.

Just my $0.02.

I'm guessing he never saw the movie. Or, maybe he did, and chose that name anyway. That would be cool!

Hmm, so hollywood wrote yet another story into the ground? Too bad.

Yeah, on a strange level, it would be much better if he knew the reference.

Well, we’ll know if he starts out a speech with:

“There’s three kinds of people in the world...”

So...class is over for the quarter. I have a practicum to do over the summer, but no real class schedule.

LOST is over, 24 is over, BSG is over. I’m not working weekends.

You’d think I could relax...

Don’t do the Christmas show!

Oh...wait...little early for that. Sorry...knee jerk reaction.

I’m feeling stretched, too...but in my case, it’s on account of being so durned disorganized and so easily overwhelmed. I went shopping last Saturday morning for about an hour, and was useless the rest of the weekend. And feel like doing nothing next weekend, too.

Plus I have a decision coming up regarding whether or not to do the braces thing. I have an appointment with the dentist (same guy—he does ortho, too) in about a week...if I don’t cancel, it’s a prelude to getting the braces put on in about another week. And I really want someone to just tell me, “Yes, this is what you should do, and he’s an OK person to do it.” Which isn’t going to happen. Family is disinterested at best, disdainful at worst.

I hate being responsible for my own actions. ;-) And the whole thing is making me crazy.

By the way, is it just me, or is the moat between us and the mailbox steadily getting wider? I’m going to need a raft to get across pretty soon.

Or I could walk around. But where’s the fun in that?

Yes this is what you want to do. It’s time you did something just for yourself.

Can’t tell you if he’s the right guy to do it. But references could.

Go for it.
