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!

Right now they're denying the sale to their own employees, and acting really strange about it.

I don't think I can take the drama.

Where's the popcorn smilie?

Heck! You can get sunburn just by working in the yard for a few hours. You don't need to spend money on a tanning parlor!

Hmmm....coffee and popcorn is not a combination I'd have thought of.

Morning!

Well...I suppose we could wander around to the back. And my brother's six-five and generally forgets and leaves several items of clothing behind whenever he visits.

Course, the guy across the street likes to shoot stuff too, so...I dunno.

No it wasn't our store... somewhere in town. Didn't see anyone in the dungeon, all I remember is going down the stairs... and down, and down, and down.

There was another store in the dream too, that was closed and gone out of business. That one must have been inspired by my work situation. ;~D

One store out of business...

One has secrets and scandals within it.

Your dreams are always easy to figger out.

I had a dream that I had like $20,000 in cash, and I needed $200 to buy off somebody, not rememebering why, but it felt like a ransom. Well, I didn't have the right change, so I ended up in someone's office space, and a woman reaches into a drawer and starts giving me photocopies of money in exchange for that... I said "This isn't real" she says, "yes it is, we have an agreement with the bank" Well, it wasn't even well copied, it was all crooked, and I tried to change it back, but she'd already given out my real money to someone else.

I don't know what that means.

(((Ramius)))

Thanks again for listening to my rants yesterday.

I'm in a much better frame of mind to do battle with The Powers That Be today.

Silence of the Lambs.


Tidbits from the gossip. Remember the 'domestic violence' situation? R did jail time for that. But the scuttlebutt from the staff is that she is an ironlady who pushes and pushes and pushes him. He's so jittery I can see how she'd do that... Well evidently he beat her up one night... but she's right back at driving him around.

Another tidbit... The handyman is in jail now... on other warrants, if not the new dumping charge... and they made him pick all of it up as restitution. No firm information on whether R was complicit in whether the stuff would be dumped illegally, but she thinks he probably was, he was trying to get by on the cheap.
