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! |

I still haven't done any prep. Still having a really hard time abandoning my current story.
Had to murder someone else today. But it was justifiable homicide, and the killer's pretty worked up about it. Didn't want to do it.
So I guess that's OK.
My tires didn't pop this time, anyway...
To: RosieCotton
Good evening everyone... Just catching up and markin' my place :~)
To: 2Jedismom
Heh heh...no, just bridges.
AAAAAaaaagh!

My tires didn't pop this time, anyway... That could be a good sign.
Or that could be a bad one.

Ruh-roh...
How so?
Heh...
To: RosieCotton
Well, if the tire was a sign to get you to stop murderin' your characters... either the powers that be have given up on you or they're cookin' up something worse.

Be afraid...be very afraid...
In happier news, I got my package from my family!
They sent cheese. Seriously. That's just weird. Good cheese, though. Looks to have survived the trip OK...
Also chocolate covered coffee beans - a LOT.
And the first two seasons of Seinfeld.
To: RosieCotton
You gots odd family.
I know how hard it can be to abandon a story in place! Maybe just do a NaNo-like thing with your current story?

Habanero cheese isn't a normal birthday gift. ;-)

I'm tempted to do that. It's not like I haven't proved I can finish a NaNo story. I've done it three times.
But it'd be a good motivator to finally finish this one. I started it two years ago.
To: RosieCotton
Also chocolate covered coffee beans *involuntary shudder*
Chocolate covered coffee beans taught me that not everything that is covered in chocolate is fit to eat. *wretch*blech*blubbberdubberdubber*....yuck.

Well...I like 'em. Too much. First time I ever had 'em I think I had heart palpitations for days and couldn't sleep for about a week.
I'll have to pace myself.
To: Lil'freeper
Wheeee, this cheese is hot. Gooood, but hot.
Speaking of pacing myself...
To: Lil'freeper
I agree with you... I don't like coffee or coffee flavoring in anything. Especially not chocolate.

Mondo cheesebrain sox intense grilling day today. Outside auditor first day on site. We drilled through a lot of stuff today though. Just flew by. We did today what took maybe three days or a full week the first year. So, we're getting better at it.
But jeez... how about we just ~don't~ do it?
I really hate Sarbanes-Oxley... have I ever said that?

Hi folks!!
Haven't been around for the last couple of weeks because I made a BIG mistake!! I upgraded to IE7 -- DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!! I finally got thru to a guy who talked me through using System Restore thank heavens!!
I sure hope nobody is on I-10 west of Palm Springs -- pretty bad stuff out there!!
Back in 1990 I was working out of town in the home of the U of Fla, staying in a motel during the week. Suddenly one night someone started horribly murdering local college students. I slept with a chair backed against the motel room door, while helicopters flew overhead. It turned out that a guy living in the woods within a half mile of my room, named Danny Rolling had developed a few bad habits. Yesterday he paid his bill -- God is good!

To: JenB
Not liking chocolate covered coffee beans, I can understand.
I'm still puzzled by the not liking coffee at *all* thing.
That just ain't right. ;-)
To: RosieCotton
yah... I know I really tend to keep to myself about such things, especially after a few wild turkeys... :-)
Arrrggh. Hundreds of man-hours. Mine, the consultants, the auditors, several of my staff.... all for something that contributes absolutely nothing to the gross national product.

[sigh]
To: Lucius Cornelius Sulla
Hmmm... we've done some upgrades to IE 7 without too much trouble. Did something go really bad wrong during yours, I take it?
To: Lucius Cornelius Sulla
...but we've specifically ~not~ yet pushed it out companywide. We're... uh, waiting, a bit for that.
