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!

Good morning! Another rainy day here. Lines of thunderstorms coming through, with partial sun in between. Been that way for days. Even when the sun has been out, it's often raining. I don't mind rain...but the mugginess is getting to me.

Did I mention there's no air conditioning at work, and computer equipment generates a LOT of heat?

Mmm...having an omelet for breakfast with green peppers, onions, fresh dill, and plenty of green tabasco. And coffee. Mmm...coffee...

Yawn... I'm still only half-awake. Need more caffiene. I'm a little depressed because my favorite pair of jeans broke, so I'm down to two pairs, one of which doesn't fit too well.

That's depressing. I get attached to old jeans...I know what ya mean.

On the bright side, it means you get to go shopping...which is kinda fun, right? Maybe find some of the good places in Ft. Collins.

Shopping on a budget, yep. I had to rearrange a couple numbers so I can start saving up for the official FMA anime when it's available

Sigh... nine days. Mostly I'm excited but there's still part of me that's quite worried about all this.

Being worried is natural! I'd be surprised if you weren't worried, at least somewhat!

When I was moving around a lot, I always went through a couple of stages with every move. The first month or so was always kinda rough, because I'd be bouncing between "this is all new and exciting! How fun!" to "I'm so homesick!" and "What have I gotten myself into?!?", but after that it'd just become "home", and I'd settle into a routine.

I don't like having no routine!

Good morning everyone!

I'm so happy to hear Bay is doing better!! He needed an oil lube, poor thing. And I'll be praying that he doesn't need another treatment because they add up $$$.

Corin - Jr's room looks very cool! I wish my parents had let me pick colors and furniture for my room, but I had nothing but different shades of pink or white my whole life. :-)

Well, today promises to be quite interesting. I've got 6 payrolls to run in addition to the other 6 that are coming in from that new client with all of the allocations. *sigh*

All I want at this point is to be out of here by 5:30. That's my goal for the day.

It's just going to be so weird. I'm sure it won't take me long to get used to things. But until I do, it'll be weird.

Think I could make DVD's for my player out of those files?

I haven't had a chance to watch any yet but I want to tonight.

Tomorrow I leave for Pensacola for a few days. It's time to for me to graduate and get my diploma.

Well, congrats, ksen! Glad to hear you're all done!

I don't know how, but it might be possible to make a dvd out of those files. Actually I'd ask, say, ecurbh, I seem to remember some of the stuff he played at Entmoot was the same sort of file.

I have some dvd making software so I was thinking of picking up some blank dvd's and playing around with the software when I get home this weekend.

Very sleepy here, but Bay is hopeful this morning!

Last night I left them turned out, but closed in the paddock so it would be easy for me to check on him. The vet thought being able to move around was better than being closed up, and being out is what he is used to in summer. This morning he ate as much grain (couple handfuls) as I fed him, and his hay was gone. Can't be completely sure that ~he~ ate all of it, because the pony was with him, but all the hay from last night was cleaned up. I am super relieved because I think that is good news!

They went out to pasture now and he's grazing. There were a couple good poops of his in the paddock...

That sounds like fun! That's the only thing I don't like about the fansubs, I have to watch them on my computer.

You'd probably be able to keep fewer disks around, too.
