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 miss SuziQ's middle of the night catch-ups.

Well, aren't you just a sweetie!?

Got back from MA late last night. Had a great time with the family, but a cold that had started on the Monday before I left developed into full blown acute bronchitis. I guess that nasty air on the plane didn't help. I went to an Urgent Care center on Sunday morning and the doc prescribed some antibiotics and an inhaler. On the way home last night, I wore one of those face masks on the plane. I know folks were probably wondering what was up with that, but I didn't care. I just didn't want it to get any worse. As it was, on the flight from Gulfport to Atlanta, some family had their little dog in a carrier in the plane with them. The thing whimpered and barked almost all the way, and I think, during the time I had my mask off to drink a gingerale, the smell of it brought a coughing spasm that lasted a few minutes. Even a Ricola didn't help! The second leg of the flight was MUCH better, and we even got in a few minutes early!

I'll go back now and catch up on what was happening during the last week.

Well, yes. Yes I am.

Welcome home. Hope you get feeling better. Bronchitis is no fun.

Just now read your post about your choloesterol reading of 160. I don't think that is high at ALL! The last time mine was done it was 190, I think, and the doc said that was on the high side of normal! My family doesn't tend toward high cholesterol though SSQ's does.

Corin Honest Snaig does it again!

To say you've honestly snaiged again implies that you've honestly snaiged in the past. And I'm not so sure that's a valid implication. ;^)

I'd be receiving a lot!

But just think of how many you'd have to give away on your birthday!

Guess it all evens out, actually.

We had a fun time at the casino. We usually go to the Grand in Gulfport. This year we didn't win anything on the machine where all the cousins each put in $10 and try to win big for the group. After that, we split up and went to find machines we liked. My sister and I spent some on the quarter machines, then went to the nickel ones so we'd lose our money more slowly. ;o) On the way out, we passed by one cousin who had won $1,000!!! We were so thrilled for her. She and I were the only ones who had never won any big money (anything over $50) since we've been getting together. So maybe next year will be my year!

The girls loved Greek Wedding. I think you'd like it; it is just a sweet story, but hilarious in the telling!

*Ahem* "Corin Honest Snaig" is immortalized in the keywords of the second thread.

Do not question the sacred writings.
