The Hobbit Hole XXIV - Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...
Please see our Hobbit Hole Troop Support project blog! ^

Posted on 08/24/2005 9:50:25 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...

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!

My mom used to play tricks like that on me - sneaking healthy stuff into perfectly good food. ;)

I do the same thing to Big'ol

Steve's gonna process her in the morning. I have to get up REALLY early to attend my disaster relief training in Edmond, so I he'll probably get up and do it before the boys get up even.

Won't be like the others...no plucking. The prep for plucking is the hard part. Plus we wanted a pretty nice looking carcass.

This isn't an issue with a stewing hen.

"Puffy's Last Night" fits nicely in the keywords.

Been watching that one, looks like it's going to behave, thankfully.

The other area also shows on this chart.

We saw Serenity. Be prepared for a ride. I thought it was great, but Clare's ready to throttle Joss Wheedon!

Evenin' folkses! Happy Friday!!!! [sip] :-)

Well... its friday night, and I'm staying here at da 'otel. Really need a break after the brain-stir-fry of SOX this week. Trying to relax.

But... the jokes on me... found out today that there's this company manager's meeting going on this weekend, and they're having a big dinner party / social thing with a couple hundred people tonight... and they're doing it here at *my hotel*!!! AAAAaaagggh. How can I miss these people if they'll never go away???

:-)

Yeesh.

Sounds like you're not a team player. :D

Just popped some corn and am settling in with National Treasure.

Well... I've snagged a seat outside in a corner by the pool. Maybe they won't notice me. [sip]

If I really liked and wanted to hang out with these people I'd already be doing it. There's simply nothing more stuffy and artificial than a company gathering. The conversation is shallow, the BS is deep. The only useful thing is to add alcohol... its a truth serum.

I always take note of who doesn't drink at a company party. Someone that doesn't trust themselves to drink and talk shop is someone to watch your back around.

Yah. One of my guys is coming over to this thing. My boss will probably be here. And the CEO and all the officers. Department heads.

I'm supposed to be there. But I don't wanna go. Told them I wasn't going to be here on those dates. Then forgot that I *was* in fact going to be here.

Dang it. :-)
