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!

Reminds me of a certain Motley Crue album, although not my favorite. :-P

Aww, now... that's not even the most scary site I've found featuring cats. Try this one!

Go write! Yah! Go!

Dad just sent me my itinerary for Christmas. On the plus side, the day I go I arrive by 2:30. On the minus side, I'll have to be walking out the door at 3 am or miss the shuttle. Oh well, that's still - wait - exactly one month from today.

OK... that's scary... but not as scary as the mere fact that it isn't the first time I've seen that site this week. I don't even remember why.

You know, that's just gonna challenge me to find a scary cat site that you haven't seen yet.

I'm not going to write yet. The girls are in bed, but they're still awake asking for last drinks of water and the like.

Once I start writing, I kinda get sucked into it and don't want to have to stop for "she pinched me" or "stop hogging all the pillows" or "MOM! Alyson's licking the baby powder". *shakes head*

Uh, yeah. I can sympathize.

There! Three hundred words about a short nap and blueberry muffins. No action today but they're gearing up for a minor showdown, and then off to the Amazon to battle the zombie Nazi killer ninja pirate of DEATH!

Well, some subset of those adjectives.

Hey I made it! Yay, my life has meaning, I reached a NaNo goal for one day.

I think it's procrastination... on homework. I should have been working on the critique that's due Tuesday after Thanksgiving. All I've done so far is read through the paper a couple times and underline claims.

I admit, my motivation is shot after we compared grades on the last one and discovered all four of us had made the exact same grade.

Don't let that bother you, Jen.

As long as the grade was good, that is.

Hehehe, we have no clue whether or not we're all getting As... well, we sort of think it's three As and one B (for the Chinese dude). We'll see.

But if these professors think I have nothing better to do over break, well, bah!

I do have to clean the place before then...can't have company with this untidy living room.... and plan a menu. Rosie and I are supposed to discuss who-cooks-what pretty soon so we can go to Wal-mart before the weekend mess.

You know, what really impresses me about that site is, they managed to shrink down the p.o.'d cat image to fit on the address tab, and it's still recognizable.
