Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!

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!

We got a new tag office here, 'take a number and set down'; they call in groups of five; into another area, spacious and well laid out. Even got tv's in the wall - if we watch tv we're supposed to forgot how long we set there. well, seeing how much they charge....

Upon further reflection and some private conversation with those who mean most to me, I do want everyone to know that my decision to leave is my own.

Things did not work out as I thought they would and I am choosing to bail out before the kids make new friends and they have to face another separation like they experienced 3 months ago.

It is not in any way whatsoever because of ~anything~ Ramius did or did not do. He's one of the finest men in the world.

I am completely to blame for this and accept full responsibility for everyone who has been hurt by my choices.

I love you guys lots and really regret the pain I've caused to those who mean so much to me.

I'm so sorry.

Thanks! I'm excited. We'll see how I am next week.

I had an IM chat with my good friend today and we talked a little about plots... I'm all fired up for NaNo even though it's not the story I really-really want to tell, but the prelude story.

We run, we trip, we sometimes get tripped, and we pick ourselves up and dust off and put some ointment on it.

I seriously don't know what to say... Nothing can make it better yet, but we'll heal in time. Good luck this week, I'm sure it ain't easy for you.

Wow...that was three years ago. Gee, I look younger every day! Isn't everyone young in Vegas?

I'm back online after a month offline (joys of buying new construction in Vegas). Now I do satellite broadband (God help you trying to get cable into new construction here).

I'm sitting here looking out at my new backyard (not finished yet). It's weird looking at all those palm trees after living in Washington all my life!

If that was smooch-moot, how come I didn't get any?
