Tricksy Hobbitsy

About Me

I blog therefore I am. The hobbit currently lives in a box in the sky in South Korea. She likes to drink Oros and red wine, but not together. The hobbit moves on a red scooter and explores other people's truths all day at Jeonju University where she has a office and a photo copy machine.This hobbit can become vicious when provoked or threatened, please refer to the directions for use in the subtext supplied with her. Generally, the hobbit is a good natured and excitable being.Amoungst many things tha Hobbit likes to eat capers and Mrs.Balls Chutney, not together though. She likes to google peoples names and watch people from her apartment window. Celebration... is self-restraint, is attentiveness, is questioning, is meditating, is awaiting, is the step over into the more wakeful glimpse of the wonder - the wonder that a world is worlding around us at all, that there are beings rather than nothing, that things are and we ourselves are in their midst, that we ourselves are and yet barely know who we are, and barely know that we do not know all this. - Martin Heidegger
