The Hobbit Hole XXXIV - But better than rain or rippling streams...
Posted on 08/07/2007 7:52:15 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog
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!

Speakin’ of which...
I got my first paycheck in five years today.
$210 for one twelve hour shift. I feel strange...a kind of relief! Odd feeling.
And since I worked last night, I’ll get another one next Friday.
I feel like a stuned beeber.

You’ve never been to Farelli’s?
It’s a pizza place. Good food.... pool... ambiance. ;~)
To: 2Jedismom
Nice! Got to love the instant gratification.
On my first co-op job they paid in 2 week cycles on a 2 week delay and I arrived at JUST the wrong time. I had to ask my boss for an advance a couple weeks later or I was going to be eating air by the time that month of waiting for money had passed.

I feel like a stuned beeber.Dang, gal, that's some good pay! Nice that you can get paid well enough that you don't have to spend too many hours a week working, for now.

Yeah, we need to think of something nice to do for him. Maybe we’ll find a local steakhouse or something and get him a certificate for dinner. Something. ‘Cuz good naybers don’t grow on trees.

Well I smashed the screen of my ipod over lunch. Should watch where I put my pants
but I already ordered the replacement part so it is not going to cost me much (drat, there goes my exuse for a new one (not that it in the budget :P)).
To: TalonDJ
I gotta admit, the iTouch looks really, really cool, in spite of the kind of silly name.
