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!

Hmmm, if my plot requires research this year I know who I'm asking!

I gotta find me a plot. I suppose I could try once again to write *the* story, the one that's bee written out four times in four very very different settings and styles... the one that's been haunting me since I was 15...

So...I get to thegym early 'cause I need to get to the office early. I thinks to myself "I can spend 10 minutes in the sauna."

But I'm getting ready to leave and this Asian guy starts asking why I've got my leg propped up. I explained theknee and arthritis.

Then I get a 20 minute instruction on home acupuncture. I am not making this up.

I don't know the rulz, but does that make this a schpadoinkle day?

I'd be cool if we could recruit a doctor, though, for medical stuff other than shooting...

I'm just sayin'.

You need to send your Carville/Gollum image to Glenn Beck asap. They were just discussing the resemblence on the air.

Good morning!

in other news, my heal split open again.

~sigh~

I made a turn on my heal in the kitchen and felt it tear open. No more sandals...gots to wear me sneakers.

Oh to be so thus afflicted...

i know it. Crap!

Got it all bandaged up with neosporin. I really tried this year to keep it from happening...Steve even said so.

My old feet can't handle sandals anymore, I guess...which is odd because for most of my youth, I went barefoot!

I'm just old, I guess. Heh!
