The Hobbit Hole XVII - A new road or a secret gate...
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 11/03/2004 6:16:42 PM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

A new road or a secret gate...

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 evening...

So I managed to avoid the "all-nighter". Yay! And someone brought a cat to lab. I don't think anyone paid attention to anything but the cat.

Home now. I hafta do some work. Ungh. I can't wait for this semester to end.

A week out? Well... that changes things a little, I mean, he's only an hour away... In another few days maybe he ought to stick a little closer... but this probly isn't so outta line.

Nonetheless... he's still facing more fierceness in the face than he's probably ever faced before. Maybe he needed an evening away *now* so that he figures he'll have some little bit of energy left next week?

I told her I'd help her any day but the 14th. Because that's when RoTK EE comes out and I'll be busy.

She just stared at me. ;~D

You're not in bed yet! Wow!

That was my last Monday. Yippy skippy!

One paper to finish. One assignment to complete (will take a large portion of the next two days, though). A speech to give. (Saturday morning, ugh). Two finals to study for. And that's it. Wow.

Guilty.

I'm watching FMwSS...getting down to the end of it, though.

Which makes it all the harder to resist!

Then... find the cat...
