Oh my

Marjorie is back with Bob, and this morning I accidentally saw them in amplexus in a semi-private corner of the tank.  Marjorie looked unbearably smug, and Bob...well, Bob just looked dazed and a bit winded.  We may have a bunch of little frog princes and princesses in our future.

Character Spotlight On:
Bob: Passionate and melodramatic he nurses a recent heartbreak. He comes from royalty, but this has been a closely held secret. He yearns to play polo, however, he is a frog. He has a strong and assertive breast stroke.

Vanessa seems like a crackpot to me. Bob will have a LONG life filled with love and CROAKING? Seems like she's giving mixed messages...

I can imagine Sarah's early grades report cards... "Sarah has a... ahem... um... vivid imagination."

Yah, for sure...I bet she got an "A" in writing!

On today's installment of "As the Frog Turns", Marjorie appears to have shifted her affection from Bob to Julio. Emotionally devastated, Bob attempts to jump out of the tupperware container. Lilith tells him to not be such a pollywog. There are other frogs in the pond.

OH MY GOD! BOB CANNOT kill himself over that tramp!

Little does Marjorie know, Bob is a prince in disguise. What a dimwitted wench.

Poor Bob. It's not easy being green.

Today, on "As the Frog Turns", the 4 frogs came back to us, along with one more buddy. African Dwarf Frog Total: 7. Bob is happy, but the rest are still nameless. The guinea pigs feel quite superior.

Conrad Boucher at 8:14pm June 16
Sounds exotic. What are their names?

Sarah McGinnis at 9:36pm June 16
Haven't named them all yet, but the one that almost got away is Bob.

Cheryl Farnum Rendino at 9:43pm June 16
I think if you have a Bob, you better have a Phil.... there ya go, name them after the punch lines to jokes about men's names.

How about posting a pic and then take suggestions from your FB friends? Sounds like a party!
