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.

Except we don't have all those cans of spam spilling out of the pantry every time we open the doors.

No, they sure weren't... and if I really wanted to be authentic, I would go stomp around the mud puddles in the paddock some wearing the cloak.

The boots are ranger, but the vest is very hobbit. The hair will be Eowyn, I am going to wear it down and wavy. I am some kind of morphed character.

I put some out in the garage just in case the elves get out of control. But I only plan to use 'em if I have to.

You know...emergency rations...

I will NOT start the lembas fight in the new hole. I will NOT start the lembas fight in the new hole, I will not...

I'm packing the boy's little rolling suitcase to take to grandmas. I am so glad we went on that trip. My parents got to see how well-behaved my boys are...especially compared to other children in our family...

Mom tends to be very critical, but it's hard to be critical of little boys that are so shiningly obviously well-behaved. I know that sounds boastful, but she even mentioned it (delicately) on the way home.

I feel a lot better about leaving them, because Mom is feeling so proud of them right now.

Hey! I sure hope to see you tonight. What's your real name? I'm Kim and my hubby is Steve.

Well, I have my ticket for the midnight showing now so I'm in. I don't know if I will be able to make the pizza party, but I will try. My real name is Stacy, and so as to not confuse you, I am a guy. That's one of the reasons why I choose an unambiguous pseudonym while online. :-)

See you in a few hours....

You know, there are a lot of times when I just like to sit and read through the messages, refreshing the screen now and then to get the latest posts, without posting anything myself. It just feels... comfortable... like reading a familiar book or listening to a favorite CD.

Maybe I'm just odd.

So cute.

Less than 30 hours now for me. I know I know only 11 for you?

I just got finished with some especially dreadful work, and was just looking to take a break from it. How delightful to find a new article.

Excellent! I'm so tickled!

Hey, my husband has blonde hair and a black (don't ask me) beard. I have shoulderlength very dark brown hair. The line has exploded just in the last couple of days, so we should hopefully have a good turnout.

Also, the radio station apparently filched out. They were supposed to come and help with the costume contest judging...
