The Hobbit Hole XXIX - Until the stars are all alight...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/20/2006 2:10:46 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Until the stars are all alight

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!

LOL! What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, unless you're Bill Bennett ;o)

Congrats on the new job! It's gonna feel real strange going from such a damp place to such a dry one, though! Good to see y'all are doing well.

it's my 50th this year so I'm trying to ignore it as much as I can (it won't ignore me, however).

Don't ignore it; EMBRACE it!! Especially since you're starting something new, anyway!

We're moving back down South this summer, and de-frapping, packing, etc is awful and exciting at the same time! So much stuff!

I just wouldn't feel truly hitched unless Elvis was there. ;-)

Just like old time funkles... nice to see you've still got it.

Man, it's quiet here today. Finals are almost over, there's nobody in the labs.

hehehehe...

In other news, there is a Mariachi band playing in our lobby!

It's Maria's (mail lady) birthday and her kids hired them to come surprise her. She's out there just bawling.

I have no NaNo ideas whatsoever. But then, that's par for the course.

It would be weird for me *not* to wait until about October 29th...
