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! |

Great...I've resorted to more or less writing fanfic of my own story in an attempt to understand my characters. I'm writing from the perspective of a totally secondary character. Tertiary, even. It doesn't fit into the actual story and will be deleted once I get more ideas, but at least it's writing. I guess it counts as wordcount...

It was 72 in Gulf Shores yesterday, and it was raining. We've actually had pretty mild weather in the high 50's or low 60's, but it has been very soggy the last few days, and no change for the next couple.

lol... don't bother, they're... here...
[sip]
To: Ramius
You'd think that we could at least get funny clowns!
To: Overtaxed
Well... that picture over in today's DUmmie funnies is pretty funny. At least to me... :-)
You can almost even see the red noses and bright color makeup. Then there's that ~sad~ clown in the back.
To: Overtaxed; Ramius
we are all clowns now...
(okay, what's the ~original~ quote?)

Morning everyone! We lost power again at 8 ish I think, and at ten, but just for a little while. We opted to leave the computers off for the night if it was going to be that iffy.
It was cool though, when it went dark, I stepped out on to the porch for a smoke and four bucket trucks went speeding by... they were already on it :~)
And get this... our TV in the bedroom, the one that was all screwed up and people were purple, on one half of the screen, it had a really odd burn pattern in it? It fixed itself, it's fine now.
To: RosieCotton
See above about the tv, you'll be amazed cuz you saw it broken... how can it fix itself?
To: HairOfTheDog
I think there are guys in bucket trucks practically living at the store...we seem to be the geographical center for most of the power outages in the area. :-\
Happy the TV resolved itself. Heh...guess one of the brown-outs or surges or whatever degaussed it. Or something.

In the last 24 hours we have gone from...
Traveling to North Carolina for Thanksgiving...
to
Not traveling, not having company...
to
Hosting dinner for (what's left of) the family...
I have, however, drawn the line at Sister Mary Hamburner's offer to cook the turkey.
