The Hobbit Hole XIII - Let them pass! Let them pass!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 07/13/2004 9:49:23 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Let them pass! Let them pass!
(Note to dwarves, this is only meant figuratively)

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Yep, I feel down too. Well, I am up from where I should be, that helps, and I'm sick... sorry about the music. I'll bet you'll be brilliant, though.

Maybe the guy was just trying to hit on the other woman?

"Yer kiddin', right? Gubmint give back some of its ill-gotten gains?"

Just wishful thinkerin' on my part! I was wondering if maybe there had been any luck with trying to get vouchers for home schooling.

Did you see that I found out there is a new Young Republicans group starting locally?

They're having a party...but the I wrote to about it hasn't written back, so I guess I ain't goin'. I didn't find out about the group until yesterday, so I didn't really expect to.

Maybe next meeting.

Hmmm...really? I thought they weren't supposed to ask? Geesh, I have no idea what we're getting in to! LOL

I don't have any money, so they are outta luck. You think that is all it is?

Nope, no question of that. Kinda wish it was something I could just shrug off as that. Ah well. It's just vanity, really.

I HOPE we'll be brilliant. We need prayers, though...;-)

Funny how some days you feel SO slender even when you know you have a ways to go...other days, not so.

I vary quite a bit in how much water I am carryin' around from day to day.

No, and probably never will be. Or they'll want too much supervision. They already demand a lot, it could only get worse.

The unfair thing about taxes on people who send their kids to private school, or homeschool, is that they're paying for the product twice. Everyone who doesn't use the system, like people without kids, is getting a raw deal. But at least they don't pay twice.

Ok, will do. That's Saturday, right? And you'll have cookies to look forward to next week. Guaranteed no-carb!

If you know where it is, you should just get your skinny butt over to it!

Heck, years ago when Steve and I were dating, we went to a barbeque for a group at UT and we didn't know a soul there...just saw a party and stopped! LOL

"My weatherbug actually said it was 100 degrees a few minutes ago."

Whew!!! It's in the mid-80s or so here (thermometer says 90 but that's in the Sun) and I already feel hot. 'course I got the air conditioning off.

Yeah, I know that's true too...but usually in the mornings that shouldn't factor in as much.

I think a lot of it is mental! And I also know I've been "bad" lately. For the most part, it wasn't avoidable without a lotta fuss...I wasn't gonna refuse to eat the dinner Ben's fiance made for us, for example. NOT a good way to impress anyone. ;-)

Heh...this is sad, but with my mentality will probably help: I bought some of those little star stickers to put on the calendar when I actually do 20 min. of exercise or more - walking around town and back, for example. Juvenile...but that's me!

Oh, and yeah, the gig is on Saturday. Pretty long one, but if all goes right and the lady doesn't welch on the agreement, and Margaret doesn't decide at the last minute to play...I'll get $50 out of the deal!

Of course...I already have things I NEED to use that for...but it'll still be nice to have.

Yeah, I have days where I go through that, too. It seems to have to do more with my mood than anything. I can look in the mirror some days and say, "I look fitter today," then other days I'll look at the same image and say, "I need to exercise more!" I've also noticed I feel better if I look in the mirror right after I exercise versus other times of the day.

You're a pal, 2J!

I would think of crashing it...but all I have is a gal's name, and she isn't listed in the phone book. Could be anywhere! But I certainly wanna get involved at some point. I just hope my message really did go through. I used a web form that LOOKED like it went through, but I never got a confirmation e-mail, so I wonder.

It'll help, yeah. If only to go into the Van-sama windshield fund.
