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!

Hah, you don't understand. It's a department of mostly guys. They're terrified we ladies will break anyway, and that triples with a pregnant woman. Their chivalrous instincts kick into overdrive. And the few of us women already band together tightly, so when something like this comes up we go into overprotective mode too - plus the fact that none of us have had babies, means we're a bit scared of the whole thing.

It's a weird situation, I am her birth and pregnancy expert because just from being around pregnant women I have more experience than everyone else.

LOL! I ~hate~ when that happens! :-D

Speaking of breakfast, I have been lax on my duties as of late. Let's hope none of these turn naughty on me!

We can't.

We've checked in. But we can never leave.

I have to take Rose to work right now, but I'll look for it when I get back.

You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave...

No need for the "dang."

You got it right. I shoulda said "check out."

Now it seems to me some fine things
Have been laid upon our table.
But we only want the ones that we can’t get.

Once again, Jen is tossed upon the sea of bizarre cultural references.

I'm off! See you later...

I know all these...but then, I listen to just about everything.

Except 80s hair bands and disco. And rap. And heavy metal. And such.
