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!

That is pretty nice! Makes more sense than our silly "two weeks of class and then finals" before Christmas break.

I have this older teenager named Jurnour Stormhand. He is currently driving a truckload of hillbilly marksmen well in excess of 100 miles an hour an a winding mountain road.

[HairOfTheDog]

If she doesn't check in I'll call her this afternoon when she should be home or headed home, and see what's up.

~snif~

Sounds like high school...

[Corin Stormhands]

You're a good hall monitor.

I don't care what they say.

[HairOfTheDog]

Nasty rumors to the contrary, eh? ;~D

[Corin Stormhands]

Yes, but I take everything ecurbh says with a grain of salt.

[HairOfTheDog]

You can't sow seeds of dissention here Corin... he said somethin' real nice this morning in the saddle club :~D

ecurbh and I spend a lot of our time together staring at screens that are right next to each other

I certainly prefer that to the alternative... staring at screens that are 1700 miles apart. ;~D

Isn't that sweet? :~D

There are ~so~ many reasons I can't comment...

[JenB]

*sigh*

[HairOfTheDog]

~rolls eyes and shakes head~ :~D

[Corin Stormhands]

I swear I am not making this up. You-know-who just brought me a document and said, "the meeting is not Thursday, January 19, 2006, it is on that Friday...I don't know what the date is..."

[HairOfTheDog]

Let me know if you want tips on partner-desk design... ecurbh and I have it all figured out :~D

[HairOfTheDog]

Heh...

[TalonDJ]

"First you need to find a flat board for a desktop that is roughly 700 miles long..."

[JenB]

I don't *think* that's what she had in mind.

[Corin Stormhands]

It gets better. Jr. just called and said "the oil guy is here, he wants to know where the tank is..."

(once I interpreted the gift, I realized he was verifying where the new tank ~goes~)

[HairOfTheDog]

We're gonna need a lot of plywood.

[HairOfTheDog]

Well that was fast! And you're doing this one above ground, right?

[HairOfTheDog]

grab something heavy.... we got twisters on the ground in MO.
