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.

Good Morning All:

This a.m. to the blood center downtown for a donation, and a nice lunch somewhere. Got to get my assorted trade goods and plunder together to see how much will fit in one-third of the truck bed.

Got one bow you may be interested G'nad. Got several trades lined up. Five days and counting.

Like a log! I was exhausted after such a wild day yesterday.

Had a HORRIBLE nightmare though, which woke me up about a half hour ago. I dreamed that the boys walked to the mall and tried to play with a toy fire truck at the mall and the store owner ran them off and they walked home. It was like 9pm when they came walking in and I didn't even know they were gone! Then I cried and cried and every time I'd stop crying I'd think about them walking home in the dark and I'd cry some more. (It doesn't matter that it doesn't get dark at 9pm right now...)

Then it woke me up. Now I'm drinking some of that cappuccino, like the kind I sent to my friend in Iraq. I'm out of other coffee. This is instant, but it'll do.

Something about that strikes me as funny.... Mostly g'nad trying to look at the chickens.... scratchin' his head thinkin'.... 'dunno, they all look like chickens.... what does she want me to notice?' ;~D

I once went to an after work thing and had enough tequila to make me think that having a female co-worker call the Mrs. and tell her I was gonna be late was a good thing...

That is the funniest thing I have heard in a long time.... Man, you are lucky you lived through it!

Ha! No.

Get this: I didn't find out until last week that I'm supposed to be in KS permanently as of July the 7th. I was under the impression that I had until September to get this move done (I wasn't even permanent until June, for crying out loud!) So...the boss says "commute to KS every week for 4 10-hour days and go to NC to take care of "house stuff" on a 3-day weekend. Right.
