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!

Eeek...is that ~town~ ????

[HairOfTheDog]

Oh yeah.... it's worse than town, because it's not even ~my~ town.

I always get lost in Bremerton. I can get in, but I have never been able to leave the same way I came in.

[Corin Stormhands]

You can check in, but you can never leave?

I got to see parts of West Virginia on Thursday that I hadn't see in years (if I'd ever seen them). Traffic was stalled on the WV Turnpike, so I got off and got a map.

So I got off on the Robert Byrd highway and went north on the Robert Byrd highway then made a left turn to go west on the Robert Byrd highway...

Morning!

Cold front came through....think I'll have hot chocolate tonight.

Is it 4:00 yet? Where's muh coffee?

[Overtaxed]

I always get lost in Bremerton. I can get in, but I have never been able to leave the same way I came in.

Sounds like Durham.

[JenB]

Morning! I don't like Mondays!

[HairOfTheDog]

We cannot get out....

[Overtaxed]

That's how Durham was settled...people couldn't find their way out so they decided to stay.

[HairOfTheDog]

LOL :~D Apparently lots of places were settled that way. ;~D

[Corin Stormhands]

[Overtaxed]

Hmmm.....so Gandalf needs a major visit to Home Depot.

[JenB]

He also needs a new hairdresser. That's a bad look for him.

[Lil'freeper]

Ugh. I'm stuck writing my accomplishments for the year so that I can sit through my annual evaluation and learn that not only had management not bothered to read them and but also made up their mind about my performance months ago. I'm tempted to insert some Monty Python just to see if I get caught. *sigh*

[Corin Stormhands]

Do you like this one better?

[Lil'freeper]

Ok, that's just creepy.

[Corin Stormhands]

Apparently he hosted Saturday Night Live.

[Lil'freeper]

A lot of other folks have hosted SNL without looking ... creepy.
