The Hobbit Hole VII - But not yet weary are our feet...

[PurpleQ]

That's true. I do have a window...if only I could get it open and escape! ~grunting~

[Wneighbor]

Escape to here!

[PurpleQ]

If only I could...I forgot the leg shackle won't release 'til 5PM.

[Argh]

I think I found the funny parts even funnier the second time I read it. Probably because, knowing how it came out, the second time I wasn't so engrossed with the storyline that I missed some of the cute humour of a lot of it.

[Wneighbor]

MMMMmmmm carne asada and tortillas... mmmmm

[PurpleQ]

Ewww...I don't need salt in my cut, too! You meanie!

Same era as the Future Shock, and what else? I'm ok You're ok? Funny huh?

LOL! When I was a kid my Mom had those two books right next to each other on the bookshelf!--didn't realize it was a trend :)

His "Incarnations of Immortality" series is brilliant.

That's what they were called. I recall the titiles "Being a Green Mother" and "On a Pale Horse" ---excellent series. Everything else of his was too cutesy for me.

[Fedora]

I like On a Pale Horse okay. Haven't read the rest of the series yet.

[RMDupree]

I could really use a nice long nap in the sun right about now....

[Wneighbor]

Well, your grandpa didn't make this. I found it frozen at WalMart and decided to try it. I had to add some seasoning. It was gringo asada! LOL

[Wneighbor]

Well, I had my lounging. If I stay out anymore today I will be a tomato. So, I ate... and gotta get clothes on now and go get my oil changed. LOL

I don't feel like it though!

[PurpleQ]

LOL! Gringo asada! You can't believe how much of that is out there. I love Papa's. It is the best. Too bad I only have a couple of times a year....I need to go visit him more often, don't I!?! Did mama tell you about this past December when he had made a-whole-lota of it for the Ochoa gathering. He was trying to carry it himself and dropped the entire batch onto the floor. He was almost in tears they said.

[Wneighbor]

Yeah, I heard about that. VEY sad that!!! What he brought at Christmas was awfully dadgummed good!!! We need to go over for cookin' lessons one of these days. :-)

[stands2reason]

my friend was telling me about one premised on the South winning the Civil War

Harry Turtledove. Haven't read him yet, but he's on my "list." Comes highly recommended. I just started on AU type stories... I'm reading a really good one right now (actually it's a literary AU) called "Anno Dracula" by Kim Newman. The premise is, what if van Helsing had failed and Dracula won? And Dracula ended up turning and marrying the widow Queen Vickie?

I'll write you back about horror books. Right now I'm supposed to be shopping and getting ready to leave town in about two hours. But I'll be back tomorrow. Laters!

[PurpleQ]

I know I need to get some lessons alright! Spanish speakin' and cookin'. He ain't gettin any younger. I know he will not be around forever.

[PurpleQ]

BTW, I don't think I am gonna do anything "special" for Mr. PQ and our 15 year anniversary.

[Wneighbor]

WHAT!?!?! That doesn't sound like you! Freepmail me if there's a problem.

[Wneighbor]

Well, I just couldn't bear to get all dressed to go for the oil change. It is too nice and warm out. So, I just decided to go with shorts that cover 95% of my tattoos and a top that covers maybe 85% of my tummy! LOL... That's as close as I can get to dressed today!!!

[PurpleQ]

Sounds perfect to me. That's what I would do if I had your body. I wish I could eat chips and dips and burritos and carne asada everyday and look like you. Stpuid thyroid disorder...I am so disfunctional!
