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!

I thought this would be the most appropriate place to release this... For pity's sake, I have no idea why.

Ungh...I accidentally slept in. At least it wasn’t to a point where I’ll be late for work, but no writing this morning. And we have meetings today, so nothing there, either.
I’m thinking handwriting the murder sequence during our staff meeting might not be a good plan.

To: TalonDJ; Corin Stormhands
The worst thing is that I’m totally incapable of concentrating on more than one thing at once. If I get distracted by a story *idea* in a meeting, I miss big chunks of what’s said. I can just imagine attempting to write, being asked a question, and babbling out something like, “...soaked in blood; but she deserved to die!”

Im thinking handwriting the murder sequence during our staff meeting might not be a good plan. Yeah probably. A couple years ago, someone made a crime scene outline of a body on the floor with masking tape. Management freaked out and ordered us all to 'violence in the workplace' training.

Well Jen is in bed sick this morning. Did you check her temperature? She could be faking it to get further ahead in the word count. :D

Good morning... I’m taking the day off. We had a client pull the rug out from under us, so I get a three-day weekend while my boss shuffles the project pipeline around. Woohoo!
And we get to spend the extra day taking our itchy-scratchy-driving-us-nuts Homer to the vet. Either he stops scratching, or...
