The Hobbit Hole XXIII - Let them go! Let them go!
Posted on 07/12/2005 8:11:36 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Let them go! Let them go!
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! |

Okiedokes. Gonna tear into a new book. Tomorrow's mtg starts at 0730 so I need to crash early.
Till tomorrow! All my best!

Well, Because I think you do know good taste, I'll accept that you can get away with them.... but IMHO, most girls I see, thin or fat, it's not as flattering... and tightness is a big part of that. Sometimes I look and want to say "Honey, if I had your body still I'd dress it better!" The tummy hanging over? Maybe it's just me, but I try to hide that! I can see that it's thinning, because it makes them look like they don't have a butt.
On the other hand, if you're nicely proportioned, you can look good in them. I've seen it done. They look good on women with a comfortably loose t-shirt, a nice figure and a cute belt, for example....

I've always preferred one piece bathing suits just because they are so comfortable.
It makes me look like a nun when I go to the beaches down here compared to what other folks are wearing (barely).
And some of them really shouldn't be wearing what they're wearing. Especially the men. They are the worst offenders.
Speedos went out a long time ago, fellas.

Even when I *was* in pretty good shape (many moons ago) I'd never ~ever~ have worn a speedo. No ma'am... :-)

Well, today we finally dealt with the Entmoot coconut that I had sitting in a pot since January 2004. It wasn't gonna sprout ;~D
We broke it open just to see if we could tell if it had ever really ~tried~ to sprout, and didn't see any such sign.
Yummmmmmmmmmmmyyyyyyyy! ;~\
To: Ramius
Whew!
What a relief!
I don't think any guy looks good in a speedo. Makes 'em look elfy.

Should I bring $4800.00 and offer to buy the lot next door?
We could plant it there.

Figuring the dump fees for the three trailers, numerous cars that don't run, and miscellaneous junk piles, I think you should offer them around $75. :~D

hehehehe...
Should I bring a banjo?

Oh yeah, forgot to tell my mouse story...
Last night, I was up late, after Hair had gone to bed, and heard a rustling sound in the kitchen. I go in, and find a mouse in the garbage can, jumping around trying to get out. I decided to try and close up the bag and take the mouse outside to bash its little head in. But before I could do that, it managed to jump high enough to scramble out, and it made it to the laundry room and behind the dryer before I could do anything.
Then Hair found the multiple carcasses this morning...
The time has come to employ a bit of mouse control. Several traps have now been deployed in strategic locations around the house.
Developing...

$4800 is practically free. Who owns it? The guy who owns the store?
