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!

Evenin' all. Having a nice visit with Mom here. SIL is being downright ratty and that's casting a shadow on the visit. Most irksome.

You have ~no~ idea how much I can understand your post.

I sent an e-mail to my manager and her boss today asking them to meet with me this week to hammer out the details of my home office. And I'm talking serious stuff like how things are gonna get paid and such.

I got NO answer from them. Not even a "thanks for the e-mail, we'll get back to you" canned response. :-/

I'm only there for two more weeks. You'd think they'd realize that things need to be taken care of ~before~ I leave.

Hurray for Fiver!

Anyone seen that new "Date Movie"? Allegedly there's a blasphemous LotR reference.

'zactly

First thing the boss troll says to me this morning is "can you see if they can make this coffee any hotter?"

I looked at him and said "Can you see if you can wait until it PERKS?"

That was the bright spot.

Somehow I hadn't realized the whole "domestic violence" thing was over there...thought it was here. Huh.

Well...plenty of drama, that's fer sure!

No drama this evening, though. Mowed the whole front and now I'm gonna take some cat litter to the dumpster. Yay...thrilling.

I dunno that I really like the act of mowing...but there's a satisfaction in having nice rows of cut grass out there. Granted, rows are still hard to make on my land...but it's getting better. ;-)

Saw it at my sister's house this past weekend.

Frodo, Sam and Gandalf walk into the jewelry store and Frodo pawns The One Ring.

He tells Gandalf to can it (in a vulgar way) when the wizard warns him not to do it.

Then he and Sam take the money and announce they're off to party with it.

This is the sanitized version, of course. It was more stupid than anything else - which it typical for these types of parody flicks.
