Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
They're stooopid. That's all.
Gah, I'd better get moving if I'm gonna get anything done today. See you later...
I was out Christmas shopping. Now I am doing series homework. I cannot be blamed.
However, my Ninja Stealth Shopping Skillz have allowed me to acquire gifts for all the immediate family without too much havoc.
I'll probably buy nothing more than what I seek...a rug for my bedroom whose only purpose will be to cover the TV and internet cables.
Wouldn't even worry about that, except they remind me of Howard Dean's campaign manager.
I'll let you mull that one over while I'm out...
Happy homework!
(I'm trying to recruit some donors...)
Naw.... We just went to look... ecurbh'd never been to a horse show before, and I think it was good for him to see all the different styles of horses and also to walk through a big barn like that and get ideas about designing a big barn for our stable. :~D
I finished chores too late for the Army/ Navy game but I've got the UT/ Auburn game on.
Looks like it might be a long evening for UT.
After several hours of programming, my part works perfectly. Unfortunately, their part doesn't. And without their part, my part is singularly unimpressive. Grr.
A bit like singing Alto, perhaps?
Hmmmm...Kitty likes eggnog.
Yeah, so at least I'm used to it.
However occasionally the alto line is prettier. Like in "Joy to the World".
By the way the shopping trip was successful re the rug. I also found a red t-shirt with the Santa-suit belt printed on it, with the legend "Does suit make me look fat?"
Then I stopped off at the World Market and picked out tiny stockings and tiny stocking stuffers for all who I expect to be in the house Christmas morning.
Rather more shopping than I expected to do...
...but the cables are less Trippi...
Amazon has RotkEE for $23.99!
As for me, I'm watching The Lion in Winter on TMC. It's followed by Lawrence of Arabia, but I don't know if I'm up for that...
You kilt it...
I have found the perfect strategy for getting things done at programming sessions: make it know that I have brought anime. Heh... we got two episodes in before calling it quits. I've accidentally gotten our fourth wheel, the Mongolian programmer guy, hooked. I was only trying to get my galpals into it...
But that's ok! Mr. Genghis Khan came through with a solution for the nasty Prolog problem in our other class, so we owe him a drink. Or three.
you only had ONE can of WD???
It was a large can.
Oh, yay, I'm not alone. Only I am alone. So, so alone. With only my cd player and my computer for company. And my plant. But that's going to die when I go home from Christmas anyway so I feel really guilty. Great.
Have some chocolate.
Sniff, that might help.
Actually I'm coming near to a nervous breakdown. Only two weeks of school left, a trillion things to do, grades to worry about... I'm just anxious...
Grades are over rated.
Agh! spilled my beer while I was posting. Drat
