If the best we can do people is watch Lori lose her mind getting lost in an imaginary frog soap opera and finding out that Kimberly finished Due South and a book ... we are in a lot of trouble.
By, the by, if you call 1-800-GoFrogs as I did today, Troy (apparently Hugh's assistant) is not very helpful ... at all. He will, though sell you box tickets to the Seattle Mariners games (weird, huh?).

It seems like things have been quiet the past week or so. Not a lot of blogging. And you have to write something really out there (like frog soap operas) to get anyone to comment! You would think that everyone suddenly has something to do besides sit on the computer and post or comment! I, of course, am not one of those people.
I want to know what you said to Troy (Hugo's assistant). Does he now think that Texans are crazy?
Nah, I'm a chicken. When I called this morning I got a voice mail so I knew what it was. When I got a '.... something something something this is Troy' I asked if Hugh was there and he said he didn't know him (ah-hah! just a tactic to keep the little people away) and said I had the wrong number. Told him I was sorry.
I might call again (use my cell phone so the number is different), but only speak Norwegian, just to see what he says. As you can see, I, also don't have a lot to do other than pose frogs and fold laundry today(finished!!!).
I SO want to leave the impression that Norwegians are crazy!!! I KNOW I can pull it off. Even if I have to convert over to very broken English with a heavy Norwegian accent - I've done it before and I get away with it. In Paris everyone was being mean to the American asking questions, but the Norwegian asking questions? Boy they were the kindest, sweetest people on the planet!
So Nutty Norwegian coming up!!! I will let you know how it goes!
(Poor Troy - I hope Hugh is paying him enough)
Uffda! Norwegians do seem incredibly cute, friendly, and lucky! I speak from experience...Doug is half Norwegian. All they have to do is flash a perfect charming smile, sport an attractive wool toggle sweater, and the world goes gonzo! All I'm saying is I'm growing out my hair, getting some serious blonde highlights, and heading to Norway to get my own broken accent...then the world will be MY oyster! :)
I'm gonna buy a wool toggle sweater and make sure that learning Norwegian is in my future... with Court's description and the fact that my heritage is Norwegian, I'm thinkin' I've gotta work this!!!! Ohhh baby, I'm there! Go, Norge!!!
Ja, kommer til mine hus og vi kan snakke norse idag!
Ja, Say what?????
"Come over to my house and we shall speak Norwegian today!"
Si, Senorita! Oops, wrong lingo, ha ha... :)
Lori, I really would like to learn some Norwegian phrases--it would be especially impressive when we visit Doug's mom's hometown. It seems there is a Sons of Norway lodge on every corner. Although you could not pay me to eat lutefisk.
