The Hobbit Hole XXVI - Home is behind, the world ahead

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Home is behind, the world ahead
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! |

Week from hell is putting it mildly.
Must have booze.
To: HairOfTheDog
Man...wouldn't that be awesome?
But I wonder if he's going to. Wonder what's he's doing next.
To: Ramius
You know it. It was bad but now it's mostly over. Tuesday will be bad too, but it should be the last day of this stressful time of year at work.
I'm spoiling for a fight on another thread. -D

hehehehe....
I battled quite a few of his type on-thread and face to face. One guy spat in my face when I went to protest the re-re-re-count in Palm Beach.
H spat in my face and said "Go back to Puerto Rico, you stupid Puerto Rican."
I laughed myself silly right in his face. I hadn't been speaking Spanish or talking about my heritage with anyone. He just looked at me and decided I was Puerto Rican. He was half right, but I've never ~been~ to Puerto Rico so how could I go back there? *grin*
Those kinds don't scare me a bit. They hate me because of the way I look. Nothing more.

LSA, I just checked the Canyon Cafe website, and they have that Poblano Chicken Chowder, so it could be the same place. Looks like there are only 6 of them and one is in St. Louis. Maybe the KC folks didn't like the Tex-Mex or Canyon Mex? We love the place, so do the kids. We offered Bugaboo Creek Steakhouse as a possibility, too, but they chose the Cafe. I think that talking Moose at Bugaboo Creek gives them the willies! ;o)

If you can say that to me after how beautiful you looked at your wedding, I'm flattered beyond words.
But you still can't have my Bud Light. :-D

You got that right, sis! *snort*
These folks on FR don't realize that they sound identical to the Democrats on the other side of the police line that day.
Just vile.
And ~so~ not worth my time.

Well, I'd do something to change it if it meant our friendship. But then I can't be mean cuz you'd hate me then too.
How about polite yet sarcastic?
Friendly yet insincere, maybe?
WHAT IF I POST ALL IN CAPS AT ALL TIMES?

Ha!
In any case, looks like you stuned him. Maybe.
I've decided (rather late in the evening) that maybe I shouldn't go through a whole day without actually eating any *real* food, so I'm makin' a crustless quiche sorta thing. Going to maybe watch another movie - just finished "Rope". Another Hitchcock movie I can say I've seen, though this one kinda gave me the willies.

I'll take friendly but insincere... :~D
