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!

Hey love - I stole your computer (and account) cuz mine didn't wanna talk to your wireless but there's plenty to do here anyway. Got most of the books up, got the kitchen stuff arranged. It's looking lots better. Hope work's going well.

Everyone else: no sheetrocking this time, and we have a chaperone not that she's doing much good

Ha! That's pretty funny and *does* sound like something I would've done, if I could've actually talked to my parents.

So there's that, you know...

For about 5 seconds I was extremely confused seeing my name on a post I totally did not recall posting. Then I actually read the post.
I will probably be back in a bit over an hour. I think the weather will support a trip to the range.

Don't tell her that. We don't want to get assigned a better one ;-D

Apparently the President's speech will delay the start of 24 by about 20 minutes.

Jack's not gonna be happy about that...

Sadly, you're right.

There's a lot of people who will be po'd not for anything the President said or didn't say. But because he messed up their TV viewing.

Well, I don't know about that, but I do know I just polished off three boiled egg sandwiches and I'm pleased as punch about it!

Hey - I'd be one of them! "Mr. President, do whatever you want with the border situation, I really don't care, but DO NOT mess with my 24."

I kid though, because in my time zone and latitude, neither is that big of an issue.

He could put Jack on the border. But it wouldn't be a fair fight.

Isn't tonight the finale of "Prison Break?"

I haven't been watching it. I just usually catch the last few minutes whilst I'm setting up a perimeter for 24.

Yep! They were vey good.

I'm now having an extremely large rootbeer float. We bought the fixin's and had them after Steve's commencement last Monday night...forever more rootbeer floats will illicit happy thoughts of celebration in my mind and heart.

Mmmm!

Heh heh! Thank you sir.

My MIL made these brownies...oh man, they're great! They're just plain brownies, but she divided the batter in two then layered Symphony chocolate bars between batter.

I might have one of them here in a sec. With a cup of coffee.
