The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Fare you well! Fare you well!

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!

I am waxing the hardwood floors since it is so warm and windy; I also have the attic fan going to remove the fumes. Evidently, the fumes are more potent that the breezes and the attic fan, 'cause what all you NaNo writers are saying is beginning to make perfect sense!!

And now, you just forwarded that to $50,000 Freepers.

You can buy your own non-cardboard house. ;-)

But Hair is getting rich from Microsoft and AOL. She don't need a job.

Besides it's just not normal for sparkin' couples to want a chaperone that is ~more~ strict.

dang homeschoolers...

I am not sure Hair would be a good chaperone either... right now we've got a really good one, it's called "1000 Miles". ;-p

"Sparkin'"? Wow, that's even worse of a word than "courtin'".

You do realize that if we hypothetically do end up married, they're going to show up and throw popcorn at the wedding?

To: JenB
Popcorn has a mass to surface area ratio that is suboptimal for throwing. We might be safe.

You're assuming we'll pop it first...

I thought you had a tux. It is not a bell bottomed and sequined one is it?

I am pretty sure there are a few things we have to worry about popping before that is an issue...
