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.

Wow, you were there weren't you Corin.

News. I can teach one class if I do it for a percentage of the pay for that class.

If I do that I would be getting shorted about 20% for the class but it is only taught on Monday Wednesday mornings from 8:30 to 12:15 (I would have to be here till 1:30)

I could do that and still look at Sam's and WalMart. It would help. That would end up $1600 over the next 11 weeks.

No, but I want to! I'm still mad I didn't get out and see it on the big screen.

I don't ever remember even hearing about it! Our #1 son came home last week and told us that one of his friends had mentioned it. I enjoyed it a LOT! Besides all the cool fight sequences, it was a good story.

I'm in... aslong as there's an axe in the tat... we need to discuss placement too...

I'll look around for a good design that includes an axe! These are temporary tats. They'll last about 3 weeks.

I am a failure as a woman.

ROFLOL.

I know just how you feel:)

Even my husband tells me I think more like a man then I do a woman, (he always means that as a complement too). I hate shopping. I do 99.9% of my shopping on Fri. If I forget something then we do without if at all possible. And all that shopping I do at Wal-Mart, and Albertsons because they are closest too home.

Our church is taking registration for a ladies retreat and is really pushing me to go. The thought of sitting around for 3 days in nice clothes with a bunch of women, talking crafts, and garage sales and silly games sounds absolutly boring beyond imagination. Nothing against the women personally, but I just can't do it. Sounds like you might know what I mean.
