The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Journey to the Cross-roads

The Two Towers Edition

Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)

Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

I don't think Steve married me for me...he married me for the package I offered! LOL No kidding and I don't mean it in a bad way...but who else was going to offer to support him, put him through college, then give him the traditional family life he wanted?

And me? I saw a short term effort turning into what I really wanted later on. And it's worked out just how I planned. Three and a half years after I married him, I was a stay-at-home mom! When Steve got his first real job after graduating from college, I took a month off and fished ever day!

I'm a conservative woman...very practical. LOL!

Me too!!! I'm 27 and I don't ever meet new people. So how I'm going to find my Mr. Right I have no idea. And then add to that that I have 2 cats and people get that look. (Single woman with cats!! Spinster City!) Argh...that makes me mad.

Know the feeling, believe me.

To be honest, I'm kind of hoping this college job will help in that department! It was one thing that pushed me a bit towards picking this job...yeah, the majority of the people here are kids, but I DO meet a lot more people than I would otherwise, especially in such a rural area. Rural areas are NOT good places to meet people! And I don't wanna move, which I suppose makes me a loser in the eyes of some of the happily married people who lambast us single folks on various threads here...

There're lots of nice people around of both sexes, but plenty of real jerks, too.

Yeah...unfortunately all the ones of the opposite sex seem to be either MUCH older, MUCH younger, or married.

Most of the ladies I met in college were nice enough, but I didn't think much of them, one way or the other. But when I met Jeanne, I knew right away that she was the right kind of person for me.

You know, every happily married couple I know (my parents included) say about the same thing. So when people try to make me feel guilty for not grabbing the first person I might be able to convince to have me, I get ticked off!

See Dale's post "Can anyone define "&"?" I'm tempted to post on that thread "Can anyone define "jackass"? I can.

Hold me back! Hold me back!

They are over $10 at The Whistle Shop, for just the mouthpiece...Steve would kill me, considering the shoes and the ebay purchase and everything...
