The Hobbit Hole XXI - ...Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/21/2005 6:44:57 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Towards the Moon or to the Sun.

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!

He'll have the blisters, then they'll pop and ooze, he'll peel, and it will look gross for a few days. After that, he'll probably have some freckles where the blisters were, and he'll remember about the sunscreen next time. ;o)
Don't be surprised if it happens again during the summer, though. Folks forget.

It was years ago in DC. Work was really sucky. So I got to the restaurant early since I'd made the arrangements. I slammed down a couple of double bourbons. It was downhill from there.

I was fine until the car started moving. Mrs. had to stop about every 300 yards for me to throw up.

Sorry about the double-posting, not quite sure what I'm doing wrong here...

Sometimes you have to wait a minute or two before your post shows up. That started happening a lot in the last few weeks. It's not automatic like it used to be. Folks don't think their post went through, so they post again, thus the double post!

Sorry. I don't mean to laugh.

We've all been there.

Go ahead and laugh. It's not as painful as it used to be.

You live and you learn, right?

Intimacy doesn't always make a pretty Hallmark card....

It was better than the time I'd done enough tequila shots to think it made sense to have a female co-worker call home to say I'd be late...

Ahhh, that explains it. I kept thinking I'd forgotten to hit the "post" after the preview showed up...I think I've gotten the hang of it now! Thanks for the tip!

What's that old joke about Catholics and Baptists in the liquor store? ;o)

Lesseee...I remember it this way...

Jews don't recognize Christ as the Messiah.

Protestants don't recognize the Pope.

And Baptists don't recognize each other in the liquor store...

You will reap the rewards, too.

They're little tiny blisters. And the pain is more isolated to just the top of his shoulders now. I slathered them with some aloe vera lotion I found in my purse...

I'm getting them ready for their visit with my folks...they are moving in exactly 2 weeks.
