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!

In other news, I'm dumped again.

[RosieCotton]

I'm here, if late.

Home from work.

I'm exhausted (haven't really slept in three nights), have a migraine, and can't think.

Everyone wants me to come up to Tacoma tonight.

I really, really want to see them...but I said "No promises."

[Corin Stormhands]

Sorry to hear that XGI.

[SuziQ]

I haven't even seen any pictures yet!

[SuziQ]

Oh man, that's too bad. But at least your prayer was answered.

[RMDupree]

(((XGI)))

She wasn't The One, hon.

Hang in there.

[ExGeeEye]

Thanks.

[ExGeeEye]

That's right.

[ExGeeEye]

True dat :)

[RosieCotton]

Guess I *have* to go...if anyone gives a care.

Cisco will probably destroy the house while I'm gone. I'd rather be here helping.

< /Eeyore>

[RMDupree]

Cheer up, Rosie!

[JenB]

Sorry about all that, Rosie. If I were there I'd tell you just to go to bed.

[JenB]

Oh, I'm sorry about that, Ex. If it had to happen I wish it had happened sooner before your hopes got too high.

[LSAggie]

are you listening to Jerry Agar? He's got some lawyer chick on wanting more humane execution procedures for people on death row.

I was listening to that flaming lib while I was fixing dinner. Wish she would have admitted she was against the death penalty instead of that smoke and mirrors, "we just want a humane execution"; "America is better than that" (making scumbags suffer through an execution);"we don't want them to suffer". What about the horrible deaths of their innocent victims??

[LSAggie]

Dang, sorry to hear that XGI, but as other's have said, better sooner than later, since she obviously was not the one.

[Overtaxed]

I think they should just shove her client off an overpass.

[osagebowman]

I think they should just shove her client off an overpass

Or a extemely tall bridge, like one of her clients did to two of his victims.

[HairOfTheDog]

Good evening...

XGI - sorry you lost your new 'hopeful'. That's a downer. If at first you don't succeed, try, try, again.

Did you get your resume fixed and submitted?

ALL - I feel like I need a bath... I've been in a cesspool of negativity today - blech.
Actually I do just need a bath :~D

And our Pippin is missing... hasn't been around all day, and I've been calling. Cats... can't keep track of them all the time. I hope he's just out on an adventure and is safe but I worry.

So I'm a downer.

[JenB]

Maybe he's just over teasing Tam through the window...

[Corin Stormhands]

It's been one of those days. Hope Pippin shows up soon.
