"Time…" he cried, "Give me more time." Which was, of course, the answer.
Paraphrased or quoted (sort of) from the Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien.

I read, my freinds,
I click “I like, I like, I like”,
For you are wondrous inventive.
Sometimes you make me laugh,
Sometimes I cry a little,
Sometimes you give directions,
To make one fit as a fiddle.

Pictures, the world to behold,
Stories, wonders to unfold.
I comment here, comment there,
But my fingers are tired from typing
Work looms, like storm clouds
Dark on tomorrow’s horizon…
So I guess I’d better get prepared,
Get some sleep, rest my silly head…
Night, night my Triond friends,
I’m headed off for bed.

    I try to comment, if only briefly, on all of my Triond friends work. This is so time consuming I hardly get time to write!

    I often get so caught up reading my friends’ work that the hours just fly by, and then a sulky teenager will inform me that my turn at the computer is over, and ask: “what’s for supper” and I’ll hear: “she went in my room again!”. The real world is so brutal; can’t I just stay in Triond land for a few more hours?

    Time flies when you’re having fun. At my age it flies even when I’m not.

    Wonderful, I try to keep my comments short so that I comment on lots of peoples work, but I always get carried away. I love Triond.

    There are nights my husband has to drag me away from the computer. Hope you had a good nights rest. I did.

    all so true – so little time, so much to do.
