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!

Some folks is just wierd! That’s cool about Seamus! The last time I went to have bloodwork done, in advance of a physical, the lab folks had a beautiful betta in a jar with a plant in it. The fish swam in and out through the roots of the plant. Is that what yours does?
Heh...at the moment, he doesn’t have a real plant. He has a plastic one, which gives him something to hide behind, but is kinda stiff and prickly. I think he’s used to real ones, because occasionally he tries to swim through this one, bangs his nose, and shakes himself like a dog. Poor little guy...
I may check out plants at Petsmart or something this weekend.

Must. Go. Home.
I think it’s time to revive one of my old favorite taglines, just in time for NaNo...
Me. Too.
Dang bro. You got it worse than me.
Looking at Nano-notes, I have the following:
1) stuck up sticky beak
2) not Karl Rove - but I can’t remember when that came up
Heh...I’m already there.
Not Karl Rove?
Oh. My. Gawsh.
As one of the responders said (and I paraphrase), bleeding my ears are, yes!

It’s galactically craptacular!
Okay, can’t watch it all from here. But what’s a little frightening is that I knew a contestant who played the trumpet for her talent right around that same era. She didn’t win her local pageant though.
speaking of pagents. Intern-officemate is going to be Miss. South Carolina for Halloween. Said she’s been trying to practice that speech and that it turns out it’s really hard to memorize.
*snork*
izzit time to go home yet???
I don’t think we ever had too much more than that this year.
via two more conversations of the type previously discussed that left me wanting to scream as previously described. The kicker is that I had to go home and couldn't finish dressing down everyone who needed it. It's really just one team and a few individuals, but they're really talented at making a mess.
via Walmart where I spent more time in line buying dinner and a movie than it took to put dinner and movie in my shopping basket.

It pains me to admit, this was me on the drive home.
