The Hobbit Hole XXXII - Sweet is the sound of falling rain
The Freeper Hobbit Hole Blog ^ | December 1, 2006

Posted on 12/01/2006 12:55:15 PM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

You can leave it with me, I don't believe in the Rapture anyway.

Hey 2J, random medical-y question you may or may not be able to answer. Occasionally I get these muscle spasm things that affect my throat. It kind of feels like a charley horse. It lasts maybe thirty seconds and i can breathe ok when it happens but it's scary.

I tend to have it happen a few times a week, then it'll vanish for months. I think I also tend to get charley horses at the same period of time but I haven't really correlated the two. Does that make any sense at all?

It just sort of freaks me out and I've never found an explanation... I'm probably not taking my vitamins enough.

Heh! I had a sister-in-law that didn't even believe in God at all! I got a pound of Haiwain Kona coffee for Christmas and I "almost" told her that in case of Rapture, be sure she got that coffee out, because it would be ashame if it went to waste.

LOL!!

Well, she split...not my sister-in-law anymore. And the Kona is long gone. I made the last pot the last time I saw my father-in-law, during his last visit to our house before he died.

Well, in case of rapture, who would put in the best word for me?

I'd say Jen. Don't look like she plans on goin'...

Yeah, if you don't mind. It can circulate to others that may want to see it. But keep it as long as you want. I don't think Suzi will mind.

Don't worry, we'll both ask you to intercede for us in Heaven. Me, I plan to get there the hard way... 'sides I hear those Left Behind books make the whole tribulation thing sound like a great adventure.

God's a much better writer than that.

I just went back and re-read the accounts (easier on the bigger computer...the laptop is so small.)

Haven't heard from Rosie this morning...

Did she stay with you guys mostly, when the heat was out?

Yes, she stayed here while the power was out, through Saturday night.

She probably hasn't been on yet this morning, because the cable was out for a while earlier.

It's just an amazing story! Prepared in ways, not so in others...it's been a great inspiration to me to get myself prepared. I used to be, but I've let it slip lately...

Ice storms hit Oklahoma on occasion...it could take out the power, make the roads impassable.

I need to get prepared!

Just sneaking on now. Still plenty of little outages and weirdnesses here, so it's pretty busy. Couldn't get on before work because the cable was out for awhile.

*** considers the story of the wise and foolish virgins, but draws the line at applying the analogy too closely to this thread ***

I stayed - along with the cats and my dog - through Sunday morning. Power came on Saturday evening, but by then I was pretty well entrenched, so put off the big move for one more night. ;-) Especially since my place was still pretty cold.

I'm researching Buddy Burners...we have a couple, but am unsure how they work.

The boys probably know since they made them in RAs, but they're both deep into their studies and I don't want to distract them. I'll haul them out later and we'll investigate.
