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 love it when dogs slink toward you on the floor like that!

She steals everybody's hearts that way. It is cute. It's just sad to know howcome she started doing that. But, she's in a happy house now. :-) Myranda loves her. I fry her eggs.

Rhett had a class and style that Hugh can only dream about... (it starts with being southern...)

Ahhhh. At last I've found why I had Rhett on my comments page! And to think, it's in association with........ uh, I'm glad you like him Carton. I'll take Rhett.

Meanwhile...the Nine have ridden forth...

This is so appropriate! Perhaps even prophetic. Now, which one is the witch king?

Gotta be the tall one that looks like a skeleton already! So who's Sauron? Hillary, pulling the strings behind them?

Well, I thought about posting again and suggesting that we had a witch queen instead of a witch king. But, you may be right, Sauron. or the Balrog. That one sleepy photo in the Senate looked a lot like a Balrog.

It seems that flights are cheaper if you fly on Tues. Wed, and Thurs.

It's also less hassle....I've been in Logan Airport on Sunday afternoon. :)

Morning everyone.

How was the workout, Corin?

I messed up a ligament in my foot the other day, so have to stop jogging 'til it's better. This means I'll have to be more careful about diet, I guess. What an un hobbit like thing to say. Maybe I can still do sit ups and push ups though.

Good morning! 6:30am here. I couldn't sleep for some reason...happens now and then.

Tonight is Steve's last day of school. He should even be home fairly early...I want to clean up the house a bit and have a nice supper on the table to celebrate.

Well, yesterday, I got my math test back. I've been worried about having to do math. The reason I am even sitting in the dreaded class is because of social statistics.

He had the tests on his desk. Just look through and pull yours out. I looked at the grades... 60 through 80's. My heart sank.

Where is my test. I don't see it. Someone got a 15. Please don't make that mine.

Finally, towards the bottom, I see my name. Pull the test out of the pile.

It's an A+. I didn't miss one.

I look at the name again. Yep, it's mine.

Goodness, I want to do a dance of joy.

It's been a long time since I've had any sucess in math... and I got an A+.

What makes that good news is that I got an A+ on my last quiz, and I believe an A+ on this last quiz..

Smeagol is doing math!!!!

Love the action photos of the horses! (Horse and pony? Can I say horses?) You're right, though...Bay doesn't look like he's getting over that jump very gracefully. ;-) What a pretty little jumper the pony is, though!

have a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning that I'm slightly concerned about, so those of you who pray, if you wouldn't mind mentioning me tonight...

I'm too late to pray for a good night's sleep, but I'll say a prayer for you now!
