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!
Let there be light.
Just finished fixing two table lamps....I’m all out of lights to fix.
Maybe every time you pay the rent you should make up a list of "gotta-have-him-fix-these" and see how many you can get through to him. If he doesn't know about it, he can't fix it. He may think you like it the way it is!
After he's done fixing your current problem, why don't you go out to your coffee shop and write for a while? Or people-watch? Or hug Cisco? You sound like you're on your last nerve, and a little selfish Rosie-time might help ...
Cool, I’ve switched out my hair care and soap for fragrance free stuff. If that doesn’t work I’ll go to weird solutions.
Halfway through priming my new stools. Can’t wait to get to the painting.
that just sounds so wrong...
That’s an attractive light fixture! It’s great that it dims, too, so you don’t have to have it bright out there at night, all the time.
We just started Season 2 yesterday. Joseph and Clare were not blown away by the first episode; thought Sheridan was too ‘talky’, but I explained that the episode had to get everyone caught up on all the changes from the previous season. I think we got to Episode three on the first disk. The writing is good, and the situations presented are interesting. Some are like little morality plays. I think that’s why SirKit’s brother, the priest, liked it so much. It can get philosophical, at times.
Purty! Good work there!
Oooooh B5! I love B5! Great series!
Oooooh, Overstock has shoes...I hadn’t noticed that before. I’m in the mood to buy shoes...
But that's only because I made it through the first week without getting all psycho on them. There's less estrogen at this place, much less, so things should be better overall.
That sounds great. OT the lamp fixer. The outside now inside light, with dimmer, is a great idea. Matching no less. A fine Saturday endeavor.
Get some GI flight suit to keep your power suit clean. Then you can add an official-looking leather name patch, too.
Will you get a chance to shoot "it", whatever "it" is?
That’ll show everyone not to mess with you.
I've been looking for an excuse to post this... (click the pic for more)
In fact, my favorite episode of the series was in Season 2: Episode 9, The Coming of Shadows. Just an incredible episode.
I dunno how much mental energy and anguish I’m willing to invest into championing this place, considering I don’t *really* want to be here. And like Hair said, in a lot of ways, it would be more than it’s worth to really spend a whole lot of time on it. It’d be cheaper to just bring in a new trailer.
But the faucet’s fixed for now. Now that he’s left I find there’s still a slow leak under the sink, but it’s in a place where I can put a bowl under it, and it’s very, very slow. I’ll call it good for now.
What a total waste of most of a Saturday, though.
Now I’m in antsy mode where I feel like I need to do lots of stuff in order to make up for being stuck still for so long, but I don’t really have anything in particular I want to do. I guess I’ll go drive aimlessly for awhile. And listen to tunes. And stuff.
One would hope! ;)
heh heh... it looks more like that than you’d think...
