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

[HairOfTheDog]

You didn't kill it... We abandoned it... I was sleeping in till 8:30 like a bum. Don't know what everyone else's excuse is.

[RosieCotton]

They left me alllll alone!

*snif*

Hey everyone! We are back. Got in from England yesterday evening and still trying to recover. (nine hour flight smashed up against a window, no leg room, then another couple of hours to Houston)

We had a good visit. After I recover a bit, will post pictures we took of our visit to Oxford having a pint or two at "The Eagle and The Child" and write a little more on how it all went. "The Eagle and The Child" was diff a "heart's desire". We did not get to the grave sites (Tolkien, Edith, CS Lewis, Warnie, and Joy) as it was as it was so cold and we could not really understand the directions. We were still "worn out" from the flight over and I was falling asleep in the car. . .not good. Terry said they were not in there anyway to comfort me, as I was so disappointed, but I would have like to have seen the sites anyway.
Did see a good bit of "Tolkin country", but afraid a good bit of the Shire has been scouged. Still some beautiful areas. . .we would go to areas and it would look like scenes from the films.

Hope you are all well.

BTW the "Home Page" looks great. Gettin' all fancy around here, huh?

[Overtaxed]

Don't know what everyone else's excuse is.

I'm working!

[HairOfTheDog]

Working, going to England.... the point is Rosie felt abandoned!

[Wneighbor]

It's too nice a day to spend it cruching data. :)

Hmmmm... it must be a lot nicer day there than it is here. We got rain. Hope you found a way to get out of your data for a while!

[Wneighbor]

Working, going to England....

My excuse is - boss sent me home sick this morning. I went back to bed and just got up for the second time. I still don't feel quite human yet.

[Overtaxed]

Just got back from my walk....more data.

[Overtaxed]

QC samples passed....dump extracts and wash glassware....

[HairOfTheDog]

Sorry you aren't feelin' good!

I am gettin' ready to go to town.....

[My back yard]

Hiya, haven't been around. what did I miss except that the Hobbit has been held for ransom.

[SuziQ]

Well Suzi, the 2004 has the third row seat, standard with the V-6.

Yeah, but there's no room BEHIND that third seat for stuff like groceries!
I know, picky, picky!

That's great that LSA got a silver one! Yep, they're purty!

[Wneighbor]

Just got back from my walk....more data.

Well, at least it's good you got your walk! Still is wet and chilly here. Or maybe I just think it's chilly cause I don't feel well. Not sure which. at any rate, it's wet.

[Wneighbor]

I am gettin' ready to go to town.....

OH no!!! Don't get beat up!!! Stay safe!!!

[Wneighbor]

Hiya back! Ummmm... what'd ya miss? Not sure that you missed anything. You know how we are! :-)

Everything okay in your neck o' the woods?

[JenB]

Ugh. Back. Did you find anything at Coldwater Creek, or are you waiting until after work?

What a day. My anime wasn't there. Drat drat drat. Drat. I was really looking forward to that, and now I either have to make a special trip to school, or wait until after break. My writing class, I got assigned to the group with three people who weren't in class, which makes things really difficult.

On the other hand, it's warm! Got to be almost 60!

[Fedora]

I'm a baaaaad hobbit.

LOL!--when you said that it reminded me of Lou Costello, which just made me realize something:

Hmmm. . .

[RosieCotton]

I did browse the outlet at Coldwater Creek, but didn't see anything I HAD to have, at least not in my price range.

Did find this, which I like a lot...but not sure how it'd fit since it's not a brand I've had before. Awful purty, though.

Maybe should save my pennies and see if there are any more nice Pendleton things at the one place I sometimes buy actual NEW clothing. Pendleton outfits are normally about a hundred and fifty at the LEAST, but last year I got a nice two piece dress for about thirty five. And they're super quality.

[JenB]

I have such a little neuroticism against wearing pre-worn clothes, unless they're from a family member. It just feels nasty, to me. So I shop at cheap places, and stores that sell last year's fashions, but not actual thrift shops. Suppose I should get over that.

Oh well. At least I have no aversion to pre-read books.

[RosieCotton]

Ugh...just realized they don't have the purpley print in my size. Ix-nay on that one.
