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!

One of the IT guys will be coming down in about 20 minutes to set up an IP agent for the phone.

I'm waiting to hear back from Peggy as to what time we'll have our meeting on the other stuff.

And I've got to meet with HR some time today to discuss which carrier I'm swtiching to for health insurance since UHC is not available in WA state.

Busy, busy!

*waves* Hi there!

I realized something yesterday that falls into the "Twilight Zone" territory.

Ramius will be flying down exactly 3 years to the day from the time we first laid eyes on each other.

Remember the mini-moot in Miami? That happened on 06/27/03.

Kinda neat, huh?

Wow, and that wasn't even planned was it?

I remember being kindof pleasantly surprised he looked you up, him not knowing you or the HH very well yet... That was awfully adventurous!

Not at all. Just one of those weird things that happen sometimes. :-)

Glad you finally started LOST. Takes some getting used to seeing "Merry" as "Charlie", but Dom's a great actor so you get used to his new role quickly.

Yeah - Dom didn't cause any film/character problems for me, between not having big feet or the right hair, the accent makes him pretty unMerryLike, really.

Unless Merry had an addiction we were unaware of. ;-)

Yeah, but the pipeweed thing was ~mostly harmless~.

And I can't picture Butterbur selling smack from behind the bar.

"Pssst....hey there, lil' masters. I got something for ya..."

Great lookin' pie! Darlin' children!

Celeste is coming over after VBS, bringing her kids so they can swim. I'm planning on making the celebration pie while I visit with her. I'm very mildly (for me) stressed over the visit.

I've decided it we ever get OBL, we're having an entire Thanksgiving Dinner with all the fixin's!

"Butterbur Pusher" fit nicely in the keywords. :-)

Yep, they pulled the thread and fixed the sidebar, but not the state sidebars...my News/Activism US:Oklahoma sidebar stills says it.
