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!

Do as your conscience guides you. Thank you for your welcome.

You say you're off campaigning? Are you running or are you working for someone?

[RosieCotton]

We're allowed to include quotes, though, within reason...

You could quote yourself. ;-)

[RosieCotton]

{{Corin}}

I still think of a lot of those dates, too.

[Overtaxed]

Haven't written anything yet, but I'm thinking about it. :)

Fixed breakfast from scratch, though.

[RosieCotton]

I've gotten in maybe seven hundred words.

Since I'm cheating, I suppose it doesn't count. ;-) But I'm still going to keep 1700 or so words a day as a goal.

[TalonDJ]

You just write 'to be continued...' and then 'Book II' and presto, now you are writing a sequel and not cheating.

[Overtaxed]

I need to find that title I wrote last night. I can write it again this morning. :)

[RosieCotton]

Yeah...that's kind of the idea. Considering I left off last night with our heroes at gunpoint, I guess it works. ;-)

[Corin Stormhands]

Volunteering ~ a lot ~ of time for George Allen.

[Corin Stormhands]

mmmmmmm...scratch...

[Corin Stormhands]

***considers***

~ whilst working on response to annual review, has determined that, even if it means early retirement and greatly reduced benefits, that he ~will~ be out of Fangorn in less than two years.

~ how will he write Nanowrimo post election day with a 7-day hangover

~ writing a book about the year of the campaign smear

So, there's that.

[James Ewell Brown Stuart]

Well, I hope all your hard work pays off.

[Overtaxed]

Frittata with broccoli, onions, mushrooms with a side of sausages.

Mmmmmm.....sausages....

[Ramius]

Mornin' folkses...

What a fun day on the campaign trail. What have we done that's so good to deserve enemies as pathetic as these?

[sip]

[Overtaxed]

John Kerry....the gift that keeps on giving.

[RosieCotton]

I miss Screamin' Howie Dean...

[Corin Stormhands]

Yes, but in Virginia, politics has become a full contact sport...

[Overtaxed]

Just leak that the opposition hates barbecue....

[RosieCotton]

LOL!

This is true...
