The Hobbit Hole XX - And take the hidden paths that run...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 03/05/2005 11:51:13 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And take the hidden paths that run...

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!

It's my favorite program on TV and there are not many I watch. I love the Las Vegas one, the Miami one, but my most favorite is the NY one. I just like Gary Sinise.

I don't miss an episode if I can help it! LOL

I also like Cold Case, and Crossing Jordon... really liked NYPD Blue, but oh well, it's off the air.

Weird stuff. Really weird.

Heh...when Bilbo and I went to NYC a few years ago, we got lost tryin' to get to the hotel. Took us forever, and being as we're a coupla hicks from the sticks, it was scary. So...what do we do when we finally get to our nice cozy hotel room? We put on a true crime show about murders that went unsolved for long periods...stuff showing how they found bloodstains in basements of people who "seemed so nice"...etc.

We spent about three hours laying in the dark afterwards asking one another "You still awake?"

I got lost in NYC too! Actually, got lost in Macy's...my group I was with went off without us and went on to a Broadway show without us! My best friend and I wandered all around NYC trying to find them for hours, we finally stumbled onto the theater! Stood outside waiting till it was over and they came out.

I was 15! It was a blast. LOL

Heh...that was only the first time we got lost, too.

We spent most of the first day figuring out how to use the subway system by continually going one stop too far or not far enough...and it was complicated by a lot of stuff being out because it was only six months or so after 9/11. We can STILL both hum the notes the subway door made when it closed...it wasn't supposed to make music, but we heard it just the same.

The worst lost time was that we couldn't find the subway station after the opera we went to. It was eleven o'clock at night, the wind was HOWLING and I was just wearing a dress and thin shoes. We musta walked about ten miles, and at one point noticed it wasn't the nicest section...but we did finally find the stairs!

I think sometimes God watches out for fools. We sure didn't know how to watch out for ourselves!

How much longer are you home?

Liked the kitty pictures, by the way.

None of your boxes came over the weekend - I'd expect them to show today. Ugh, it's Monday and I'm tired.

Try hard not to worry about the job. After all, like we said, if worst comes to worse you can work at B&N for a while (I hear they get $30 a month in book benefits) and make your half of the expenses.

Had a nightmare last night that I'd developed cat allergies since Christmas and started sneezing when you walked in.

Have I gotten anything else out of the ordinary for mail? Other than just envelope stuff? I don't THINK I would have, but wondered.

Mmmm...book benefits...

I really won't have time to worry about the job until after the wedding...but then...

What I'm most worried about now is the STILL-unhemmed dress. And the fit thereof.

Nope, it just looks like bills and things. About five envelopes.

Which reminds me I have to mail all my bills today... sigh...

"Corin Honest Snaig" fits nicely in the keywords.

I really like the "true-life" versions of those shows, "Forensic Files" and whatnot. Never watched CSI or the others you mentioned. I like detective stories where I can deduce the criminal through this-and-such clue, and the forensic investigators don't give me that opportunity.

Good morning!! I won't tell you that it is already 60 degrees here, the sun is shining and I'm getting ready to go out and do yard work.

We don't have storms predicted until tomorrow night. Are you fixin' to hitch 'em to the plane and drag 'em back home?
