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.

You've read my mind! I've been perusing job listings quite a bit lately! It shouldn't be too hard for me to find the "stupid data entry job" I've always wanted! ;)

Good morning! Stayed up too late playing AoE with my brother again. This time we teamed up against the computer guys and crushed 'em. Now I need coffee.

Couple more days until DSL!

Good Morning!

It hasn't gotten really cold yet...that comes tonight and tomorrow, I believe. Work is officially closed today. Wonder how I'm going to get the cat to her dental appointment tomorrow.

Hehehe....the dreaded "S" word....snow! When I got up this morning, they hadn't even started clearing the interstates and folks are wrecking all over the place. Highway patrol is telling people to stay off the roads, Seymour Johnson is mission critical folks only...

Good Morning!

I am up. Been awake since 3:00 in the morning, but finally got up. Tired but couldn't sleep!

Hope it doesn't make me grouchy!
