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!

Missed you too!

SOX is evil. We have auditors all over the place and it's terrible. :-(

That's mildly scary that someone made such a site.

Mmm... made a nice fluffy omelet and opened a surprisingly yummy bottle of wine. This is more like what I thought adult life would be. Sitting in my pajamas staring at the computer screen, eating dinner.

All is well for the moment and I'm grateful for it. :-D

Say, you're doing pretty good if you spent all day with auditors and all you needed afterwards was a beer.

It's a yummy combo! Sauv blanc (Californian, I'm cheap this month) with some light fluffy eggs and pork products... mmm.

Thanks!

I stupidly made a resolution that by the end of each day, my word count would be at the average word count for my region (we're having a competition with the next town over so we calculate that every day). If I want to make it I have to write 500 more words... mngh...

Hey, anything that gets you motivated isn't stupid.

My self-motivation tactics aren't working, that's for sure. *smiles*

And 500 words isn't that bad. Just use lots of lots of adjectives. ;-)
