Details Of One Crazy Night With Two Crazy Girls...

Started the night off with Aksel. One word: Yum!!! Has a great kick.

Then we had a Leif. Grr is all I gotta say. That drink is good.
Forgot to take a pic of Kjetil. It looks just like Leif. It's different. I liked the whiskey. Didn't like the beer.




Then we did Patriotic Missiles. I like the blue stuff.



Then we went & played pool. We came back & the bartender made us 2 of her very own drinks. She calls it Swamp Water. It has like 20 different alcohols in it. It was freaking awesome, but that did us in for the night.




I ended the night with Simen. I so loved Simen last night. Not so much this morning. Repeat after me girls 'peach schnapps is not my friend' Never again, never again. *shakes head*

    @mel: i´m glad your dad is ok for now!

    thanks for the pics... i love the colour of the simen! :-)

  3. @Cricket No clue. I must have a high tolerance for alcohol. The bartender was mixing the drinks really strong though. I'm still feeling a little woozie right now. I think I may go eat something.

    @Teekanne Glad to have you back!!! I love the color of Simen too. Too bad you couldn't choose between all the hot men.

    ReplyDelete
  4. @Teekanne That's not fair!

    I printed the bunny picture and put it in one of my drawers at work. Whenever I am stressed I look at it and laugh.

  5. Hi ladies!
    Wow! So many drinks!!! As Cricket said are you even alive???

    @Teekanne Welcome back ma sista! I really missed you! So, did you bring one Norwegian guy for each of us? Where's mine? I don't see him!! LOL Hope you had a lot of fun! I'm glad you're back!

    ReplyDelete
  6. @mel: yeh too bad.. ;-) But i bet i couldn´t hold up with the sport programm most of them need to have... they all look so fit. ;-)
    First need to train a little bit and then go there again! ;-)

    @Cricket: haha.. i bet you do! haha i would too.

    @dana: sorry. i promised them to get you all and come back next week for a grand prix party! haha! ;-)
    we had a lot of fun... yeh. we enjoyed ourselves pretty much.. haha.
    at least we met a few guys in the hostels who where pretty nice but unfortunately not norwegians! :-/

    i´m glad i´m back too.. i really look forward to sleep in my bed and have a calm night without snoring! haha. mixed dorms aren´t the best choice but the cheapest! ;-)

  7. Home sweet home!!! :D

    @Teekanne Heiii hun!!!! :D
    how are you doing?!?! :D I'm glad to have you back!!! :D

    @Cricke 'Did you get the cute guy's number? And I hope you took your shoes off!'
    Well no to both! ;D This guy lives kinda far away for me and I'm not into distance relationships! :D I know, I have to learn alot from my cougar sistas!!! ;P
    And to the shoe part, well I honestly wasn't thinking about taking them off! LOL I was a little tipsy to be honest! ;P And I have kinda long to get the shoes on and off! ;D
    haha I bet thouhg I was looking hilarious, trying to go on my toes in heels! lmao :D

    @Mel these drinks are looking good! ;D I definitly have to try them sometime! :D

    @Dana LOL Good question!!! Where are your Vikings Teekanne?!?! ;P

    ReplyDelete
  8. @anja: haha.. good to see you baby! :-) as i see you survived the time without me pretty well and the girls treated you very nicely!
    except i´m damn tired i´m doing good. i brought the sun back home so i´m looking forward to a weekend full of sun! :-)
    How are you? Read about your night out with the military men! :-) Sounded like fun!
    so not into distance relationships? Norway isn´t that far, right? haha

    does an indish viking from San Francisco, a american viking form portland, a german viking who studies in goteborg count? i bet no, right?
    So i wasn´t brave enough to go to the men and ask for a pic for this blog... i´m kind of shy! ;-)

  9. Hey ladies,

    just stoping by to say hi. I'm so tired today. I'll just put on my PJ and relax on the couch.

    @Teekanne I'm hopeing for some pictures soon.;P

    @Mel your night was all about "House drinks". Hope you're ok now.lol

    See you all tomorrow. Don't party to wild.;P LOL

    ReplyDelete
  10. @Anja I understand about the distance thing. I don't do it either, well unless the guy is around for a while!

    I have a pair of shoes like that. They are such a pain to get on and off but they look so awesome I wear them all the time anyway. I can't drink too much though because the heels are 4 inches! I wear them when I am out with my big boys.

    @Teekanne Sounds like the boys from San Francisco get around, huh?

    @Gordana I am jealous! I want to put on my pjs and lay on the couch really bad right now.

    ReplyDelete
  11. @Teekanne I did it survive barely! Yea, they were looking out for me great!!! :D haha weren't able to prevent me from going to the gutter though!!! :P

    I'm really tired too! haha and my feet hurt! 10 hours in heels weren't good for them! ;D
    haha we had a blast last night! I haven't had so much fun in a while in 'real'! :D Was so worth it! :D
    Oh well, I'd make an exception for Norway!!! :D But this guys wasn't really hot enough to make one!!! ;D Unlike the men we're thinking about! :D

    haha nope they don't! sorry!!! Especially not the german one! ;P ...kidding! :P

    lmao shy?!?!?! Yea sure!!! :D I nearly believe you that one!!! ;D

    @mel so glad to hear everything went well with your dad..and am sorry to hear about your disillusionment with simen....lol:)

    @teekanne...gerard butler=hamster. too funny!

    have to run...happy friday everyone!

    ReplyDelete
  13. @Cricket well the distance is one thing! But the men that are in the military for these 21 weeks here, are normally really horny and not looking for something real! So I normally leave my fingers off them! lol :D

    yea I love these shoes too! Well do you know how many cm 4 inces are? Just curious! :D Mine were about 6 cm high! :D And normally really comfortable, but not after that long! ;D

    btw how is everyone?! Hope you're having a great friday? :D

    ReplyDelete
  14. @gordana: i just have to select a few of the 700 pics i took! ;-)

    @cricket: yeh it sounds like. he was ok.. so at least i know where i will sleep when i´m in san francisco on day! ;-)

    @anja: i knew you would make an exception for norwegian guys haha
    the german doesn´t count? ok,.. yeh he was annoying.. he asked us about hints what he could put on his list for "things i have to do in my life" (there were things on like "building a house", "burning my house", "holding a baby", "seeing an opera"...)
    haha. he was the most snoring guy.. i don´t know if it´s bc of the nation! haha.

    i´m glad you had a big night... hope you didn´t talk about the blog haha.

    yeh i´m shy... believe it or not... ;-) (at least with handsome vikings!)

    @suzanne: i think we didn´t meet yet. welcome to the blog! :-) good to see you!
    i love the video.. haha it´s funny..
    did you already post it on aksels blog? ;-)

    since yesterday i cannot stop watching this annoying orange clip:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cL_qGMfbtAk

    WHAAAZZUUUP!!! Haha... We decided to scream "whazzup" to the men who shared the room this night with us. but we already were asleep as they came in :-( that would have been fun! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  15. @Anja Sounds like the summer guys around here. Story of my life!

    4 inches is 10 cm. They're very high!

    I am dying to go home. 1 more hour.

    ReplyDelete
  16. @Suzanne LMAO That video is priceless. Yeah I don't think I should have had both Svindal brothers in one night. ;-)

    @Gordana Yup all better, but I'm still starving.

    @dana I think I'm alive...I might not be, but I will let you know if I am blogging from the great beyond...

    For those of you who were wondering what the male version of a cougar is it's manther. They are talking about it on The Doctors. *sigh* Maybe I should get Dr. Travis to come check me out & make sure I'm still alive. *devilish grin*

    ReplyDelete
  17. @Teekanne That was funny. Poor little Apple.

    ReplyDelete
  18. @Teekanne haha I know I'm really predictable with that matter! ;D
    haha well not since yesterday! You gotta feel lucky btw! You're one of the few exception I make at the moment for Germans! I do not like them right now since they kicked us out off the World championship yesterday!!! ;D ok it's prolly going to last a day more or so, but though you might wanna know! ;P haha

    LOL nope I didn't talk about the blog! Should I have?! I was thinking once or twice about you ladies though! :D But I didn't wanted to scare everyone with my addiction! :D

    haha ok I think I'd be shy with handsome Vikings too! soo but you'd talk to our hot Vikings, wouldn't ya?! ;D

    lmao!!! That vid is hilarious!!! Whaaaatsssupp?!?! LOL :D

    @Cricket I see!!! ok that are very high heels!!! :D I don't think I'd be able to walk with them! And I'm tall enough already, so no need for those! ;P

    ReplyDelete
  19. @teekanne...many thanks for your warm welcome...it sounds like you had an awesome holiday! oh no...would never post the silly vid on aksels blog...am afraid it would upset him.

    @mel...both the svindal boys in one night...you trollop...lol:) glad you enjoyed the clip. i always thought the male version of the cougar was call a mid life crisis...lol!

    @anja...i think there is a name for the type of shoes you are talking about...FMP's en btw...am having an awesome friday! busy day at the office and sunshine. what about you?

    ReplyDelete
  20. @Mel I'm glad you're OK! Ha ha! We need you and love you so please stay alive, not six feet under! The drinks look great but I don't wanna try none of them!
    Thanks for the male version of a cougar!

    @Teekanne & Suzanne Funny video! lol

    ReplyDelete
  21. @Mel: Manther? hmm men going for younger girls isn´t that normal? ;-)
    Haha.. i loved it yesterday. i was laughing so hard i was crying haha. i couldn´t stop!

    @anja:
    haha:. oh yeh i heard it in the radio his afternoon. wow... that´s a story! Now we´re playing semi finals? right?

    haha.. so you didn´t scare the men to death better for you! ;-)

    Haha at least i will be stuck with alcohol so i would talk to them! ;-) and you´re next to me. i had 2 taken girls with me...

    whaaaaazzzuuupp! ;-)

    @suzanne: it wouldn´t upset him... at least we know he does it better at the end! :-)
    Ok, we wait for mel to post it haha.

    ReplyDelete
  22. @Suzanne Nope I'm not a trollop. I'm just a lush. I think the men got upset that it was just a mid-life crisis & we women had a cool name. IDK if he would be upset. He may think it's funny.

    ReplyDelete
  23. @Anja I am only 1.65m so I need all the help I can get, especially since I prefer guys a LOT taller!

    @Suzanne FMPs is exactly right! LMAO

    18 more minutes to the weekend!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. @mel it does appear the fellows are feeling a bit left out of the cool nickname dept. too bad so sad. like the others were saying...i too am a bit shy and would feel terrible if the funny clip made him mad. do you wonder if he trolls this blog? is that how he found out about the viking drinks?

    ReplyDelete
  25. @Suzanne ok you gotta explain me what you mean with FMP's? :D
    Mine is great too, I'm just really tired now! :D but it was worth it! :D

    @Teekanne Grrr!!! Yea, I didn't see all of it! But I heard you we're just lucky!!! ;P I liked the end thouhg, when our guys we're kicking your's asses in real! ;D I know I'm weird, but I kinda like seeing them punch eachother! ;D

    I see! Poor you! Lol yea, you'll have me besides you, who'll be rolling on the ground laughing bc of all the stuff on here! lmao ;D
    At least then, they'll think I'm the only weirdo!!! ;D

    @Cricket I see! lol Well with my 1.75m i don't think I need much help there! Not since we're not having many tall men here! ;D hmm, I guess I really need to go to Norway! lmao :P

    ReplyDelete
  26. @cricket the weekend countdown is on! fmp's..bwahahaha! and why is it tall guys go for shorter girls? this tall girl wants to know :)

    ReplyDelete
  27. @Suzanne No I posted the drink list on his blog & he thought it was funny. *big smile on face* Yes I still get a happy buzz when I think about it. *giggles like a little school girl*

    ReplyDelete
  28. @anja fmp= f*ck me pumps glad you are having a great day:)

    ReplyDelete
  29. @anja: yeh you´re weird.. haha. I don´t know if i should like it they punch only for a puk.. they should punch for a girl! Haha

    ok. next time you´re in my bag! :-)

    @mel: you deserved it! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  30. Maybe I should warn the people on ALS not to drink more than 3 House Drinks in one night...

    ReplyDelete
  31. @Suzanne lmao! I see!!! :D haha Nice to know! ;D

    ReplyDelete
  32. @mel i'm getting a contact high from your happy buzz.

    ReplyDelete

    @anja: fighting for me? no... i don´t like icehockey players at all. they have too many missing teeth! haha.

    i missed the fight.. think i need to check it out on you tube.. ;-)

    ok. be in my bag or directly join the trip! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  36. @Teekanne haha you're mean! I don't know so many Ice hockey players, so I don't have an opinion about them! ;D

    haha yea, I'll be in on the trip! That's easier than being carried in the bag! lmao :D

    ReplyDelete
  37. I'm off to bed! Hugs and kisses to you all! Have fun!

    at least the could teach me how to break on skates without crashing at be boards.

    ok, we´re planing to go to krakau next.. but that could change every day! haha.

    my car is standing in the parking lot since wednesday i guess. my mom said it´s working again but i didn´t try yet. i will do tomorrow! but my neighbour is sure he fixed it! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  39. @Dana good night sweetie! Sleep well and sweet dreams!!! :D

    @Teekanne haha I guess I need to find me some hockey players too then?! Bc I cannot skate at all and braking is impossible! haha I always just kinda let me drive out (is that a word? lol) or drive into these boards! lol I don't go often though, I don't like sitting on the ground on ice!!! ;P

    haha I bet it can! :D I just need to talk you into it a bit again I guess then?! ;P

    Nicee!!! Glad your car is working again!!! :D Good to have a mecanic as neighboor! :D

    ReplyDelete
  40. Whaaaaaazzzzzupp ladies!?!?! TGIF!!!!!!!!!!

    Welcome back Teekanne!! I love your pics, Norway is breathtakingly beautiful, amazing! I've never seen any place like it. I love the picture of you with the thumbs up! ;D

    OMG Suzanne FMP's!!!?!? Classic!!! I love it! The vid is cute too! Thanks for sharing!

    @Mel Damn girl! I can't believe you ingested all of that alcohol and live to tell about it! I would been face planted into the floor ;D The drinks look quite yummy so I will have to try out the Svindal boys tomorrow night when I go out with the girls. ;D I'll be in heels so hopefully I won't topple over on the dance floor, haha!

    Getting ready to head to dinner with the family, just thought I'd stop by and say hello because I am an addict you know?!? ;D

    Have a wonderful evening ladies and I'll catch ya later!

    Cheers!
    xoxo

    ReplyDelete
  41. @anja: i don´t think you should really search for them just to learn skating.. there are these skaters or speedskaters who could teach you. :-) I would join the course at least i can skate! haha. it´s fun for about an hour before the feet begin to hurt! :(

    Oh... you´re invited to join no matter where we´ll heading to, but i don´t know yet where we will go! ;-) maybe helsinki?!

    @kristen: thank you for your welcoming! ;-)
    I will add a few more pics these days. I got an advice of anja not to upload all 700 pics i took. but there are lik 1000 pics coming from the girls i was with. so i would upload a few of them too!
    have fun with your family! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  42. @Kristen Hei girl! Hope you're doing well?

    Well have fun at family dinner! :D Have a nice evening and talk to ya later then! :D

    @Teekanne haha and they're looking better?! Oh well, I'll just stick with the winter sport on snow not ice! :D Like snowboarding!!! ;D
    Ok I'll do it when you'll be there to support me!!! :D

    Ok!!! I've heard that!!! :D Oh helsinki is awesome too! But isn't it expensive too? :D oh well, I need to earn some money for such a trip anyway! After this summer I'm so going to be broke!!! Totally!!! :S

    well I did say that, but honestly, who'd look through all 700?! :D And you know, you wouldn't wanna have all pics on the internet! Where every weirdo can see it!!! :P The ladies on here are of course excluded on that! :D

    ReplyDelete
  43. It's sounds like there is a fight brewing on ALS...*shakes head* I hate fighting. I hear enough of it at work.

    What is up with all the naked statues?

    ReplyDelete
  44. @anja: hmm i don´t know... at least the skater like figure skater look a little gay but it´s ok! haha.. i don´t know about the speed skater since the have this hood on.

    i was just told that norway is the most expensive country up there. so i think finland or sweeden isn´t that shocking! haha.

    don´t spend that much money in canada and all will be fine i guess haha.

    haha. those ppl who are really interested in looking my pics haha. no i understand but it´s really hard to sort some out.

    @Mel: haha.. yeh i saw that.
    looks like kindergarden to me... gosh the girls heaving spring feaver! ;-)
    I talked to anja on Fb and my first reaction was:
    "Talk to my elbow my hand is on vacation" but i think that would make thinks even worse!

    naked statues? that´s art!!! At least in europe it´s called art! haha

    ReplyDelete
  45. Hey ladies! I have 20 minutes to kill while I have some treatment cream on my hair. I am supposed to be going out at 8 but I might not make it!

    What statues are you talking about?

    I can't believe those posts. I don't even want to comment there. It totally sounds like a kindergarten!

    ReplyDelete
  46. @Teekanne It seems like that's all they do over there. LOL talk to my elbow my hand is on vacation LMAO I love that. I get that it's art. I just don't understand why they must be naked. I guess I'm just too American about nudity.

    ReplyDelete
  47. @Teekanne I see! Oh well figure or speed skating isn't that popular here! :D but I'm more into 'big' guys not men that look more like women! ;P

    I don't know! I heard whole Scandinavia is expensive! but well Switzerland is expensive too another German just told me today! ;)

    I understand too! sorting our is the hardest part! ;D you could to a photo album and put all 700+ pics in there! ;D
    Not a good idea?! :D

    @Mel & Teekanne I agree it's kindergarden! haha spring feaver?! didn't we have that already?! ;D when Aksel was on holidays!!! I just hope it's not going to start all over again... *sigh* Oh well, I don't care as long as that is not causing Aksel so quit his comment section! That'd really pissing me off!!! :D
    But in the end it's his decision to say something! i stopped reading all the comments a while ago, when we weren't allowed to go off topic anymore actually! :D Reading like 50times the same is getting boring! I just kinda pick certain ppl I know, normally say something witty or interessting! Like you ladies! ;D

    So thanks again Mel for creating this blog!!! :D Here we can have fun and go off topic and no fights!!! that's what I like most!!! :D I mean this blog exists for more than a month now and not a single fight!!! :D

    LMAO Btw Teekanne, I like the "Talk to my elbow my hand is on vacation"!!! I gotta use that when there are annyoing ppl bothering me in real! ;P haha Thanks!!!

    Ok I'm off!!! Good night all and sleep well! :D

    ReplyDelete
  48. @Cricket Teekanne posted some pics from her vacation on facebook & there are naked statues in some of them.

    ReplyDelete
  49. @Mel Ohh ok. I don't have Facebook anymore. One of my friends from work was being stalked by some nut and he was harassing all her friends. He sent me like 100 messages in 2 days and I just had enough, so I deleted it.

    I am going to wash this stuff off and get ready. I'll talk to you all later. Enjoy your evenings!

    ReplyDelete
  50. Hahahaha.... I guess she's been in the Frognerpark :D

    ReplyDelete
  51. @Cricket That sucks. I would have just blocked him like I did this person that stalked my friends & I.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I see there's action on Aksel's blog again. I just can't understand why some people have to be so uptight to what everybody is writing or not. And the people who are complaining are those who are no better!

    ReplyDelete
  53. I agree with you there Anne-May. They are just a bunch of hypocites. Just like the people that were complaining about people going off topic. *shakes head* This is why there will never ever be peace on earth. It's in human nature to fight. Most of us fight the urge, but some of us just love it.

    ReplyDelete
  54. @Anne-May did you see Kelly's reply to you? If you should need any help I do offer my services. I'm already wearing my 'Don't piss me off I'm running out of places to hide the bodies' T-shirt. *angelic smile*

    ReplyDelete
  55. @Anne-May Nice try on the diplomacy bit on the other site!!

    However, I don't think it will do much good - those 2 individuals I think are jealous of each other, even though they have never met. Their posts are similar in many ways.

    Hows everyone else? I have just got back from a few days in scotland,

    ReplyDelete
  56. oh good lord.... What's up with that woman?? Sometimes it seems like she's married to the guy.... lol Yeah, i did see her reply. She said that she isn't attacking. My god, she dosen't know what attack is then. She never called anyone bananas... Well i didn't eigther.

    Mel come out NOW!! I'm pissed off!!!!! lol

    ReplyDelete
  57. @marie I think they are too. I'm great. How was Scotland? How are you?

    ReplyDelete
  58. *grabs her trusty baseball bat* All right let's go kick so butt!!!

    ReplyDelete
  59. @ Marie Just can't understand the jalousy on his blog!!! Semms like some people have first right to write what they want when others just can go to bed.

    ReplyDelete
  60. @ Marie I'm fine thanks :D How are you and how was Scotland!

    ReplyDelete
  61. @ Mel. Anne Marie

    Scotland was sunny and warm for once - the weather can be as changeable as Norway. It was a working trip, so lots of train travel and hotels. Was in Aberdeen and edinburgh. Did get out for 2 hours for a walk on the coast though.

    I have aksels blog will be good again once the ski training proper and the racing starts - more interesting responses usually.

    ReplyDelete
  62. @marie Sounds like fun. I hope ALS will go back to normal & the cat fighting will stop.

    @Anne-May Glad you did not respond to Kelly's little jab. I'm proud of you for taking the high road. *knuckle bump*

    ReplyDelete
  63. @ Mel I don't bother using energy on BS!!! LOL I said what i meant in my post earlier and that's it! :D Don't wanna get in trouble with our host in there :D

    @ Marie Always had a drea of Scotland!!!!
    It will be calm on his blog as log as we don't ewspond and respond! And i DO look forward to the season with The World Champ and all the races. People will have other things to concentrate on then fighting for nothing!! At least i hope so. lol

    ReplyDelete
  64. @Anne-May There is no point in fanning the fires. Yeah we so do not wanna tick Aksel off. I know he's a quiet person, but I'm pretty sure the man has a temper not to be toyed with. I know way too many quiet guys...

    ReplyDelete
  65. @Ann Marie - a 'dream'or a 'dread' of Scotland??

    @mel - have you taken the verification code off the blog? Makes things much quicker

    ReplyDelete
  66. @ Mel Yes, he's quiet. But i do NOT wanna get in trouble with a guy that's 190cm and about 100 kg.lol

    ReplyDelete
  67. @marie Yes I did. The girls complained about it in one of the blogs.

    ReplyDelete
  68. @ Marie lol a dream of scotland. typed a little to fast :D

    ReplyDelete
  69. Sorry I meant Ann-may not ann-marie - I think the second glass of wine is not improving my typing!!

    ReplyDelete
  70. @ Mel that's way it goes way faster than before.lol

  71. @ Anne-May LOL Yeah you never wanna get on the bad side of a quiet big guy. Though I think it would take a lot to get him ticked off.

  73. @ Mel He might be a quiet guy but i don't think he's without a temper if you stretch him :D I'm sure he is able to speak with big ugly words, at least.lol

  74. @Anne-May that's what I was saying. I'm sure he has a temper you don't wanna mess with.

  76. @Mel, Ann-Marie

    I agree that Aksel is probably very quiet and calm until something really upsets him. I think in interviews he admits he is very stubborn. I can imagine he will be pushed so far, and then he will react and I would not like to be on the wong side then!!

  77. @Marie great minds think alike. I was thinking why they would use salt on snow too. Salt melts snow in my experience.

  78. I found this on Wikipedia:

    Chemicals can be applied to the snow surface in order to harden the course. The most common chemicals used are sodium chloride, calcium chloride, urea, ammonium nitrate, and potassium nitrate. This "salting" is done mostly when the snow is wet and slushy. When a race course is salted, the salt crystals break up into ions. These ions lower the freezing point of the snow, which hardens the surface. This provides a dense layer of snow with a consistent surface throughout the course, making the race more fair for athletes running later in the race.

    Two important factors that determine whether salt will work are crystal structure and moisture. Crystals that are too sharp will prevent the deep penetration of the salt into the snow. Crystals that are too round lack flat surfaces that can bond tightly to adjacent crystals. The snow also needs to have a moisture content of around 60%. Salting a race course works best when the weather is sunny and warm. Salting may also work when it is raining, since the rain adds moisture to the snow. In general, salt will not harden the snow if it is cloudy and just above freezing.

    Salting is typically only done in slalom and giant slalom events. It is important to salt the apex of the turn especially well, because that is the part of the turn when the skier exerts the most pressure on the snow. Speed events (downhill and Super G) have a larger surface area, making salting expensive; the high speeds of these events also make salting potentially dangerous.

    ....and then the next question is how does that affect the wax on the skis? I will wait and see if someone answers the first question, before asking that. I have to admit I have a very analytical mind and like to know how things basically work.

  80. Well I'm off to bed. I have an early morning tomorrow.

    ReplyDelete
  81. @mel So you have answered the first question, now waht about the second question!!!LOL

    Are you going to post this answer on the other blog? After the 'bitching' earlier this evening it would provide a good contrast.

    ReplyDelete
  82. @Marie I don't know the answer to your other question. I'll leave that question to Aksel.

  83. @mel

    Do you remember when you started this blog, about being called silly little girls/teeny boppers? I think your last response on ALS blog puts paid to those accusations.

    ReplyDelete
  84. @Marie LOL But I am so a silly little girl & a total teeny bopper!

    I think your last response on ALS blog puts paid to those accusations.

    I sure hope so. I may not know a lot about the sport, but I'm very good at finding info on subjects. I love to learn about things. I have a thirst for knowledge.

  85. good morning everybody! :) how are you doing?

    @mel: yeh you might be too american for it! haha at least in europe i think half of all statues are naked! I think it´s bc most of them were formed in the time of naturalism which shows things how they really are.

    @anne-may: yeh it was frognerpark! :-)

    @anja: yeh switzerland might be expensive too, i will let you know! haha. i wonder now why ppl complain about the prices here. ok at least we don´t earn that much i guess! ;-)

    @Mel: thanks for the info! :-)

    @cricket: i will post liks to my pics later i guess! So you can enjoy all the naked figures too! ;-)

  86. Good noon everyone?! ;D

    How are you doing?! ;D

    @Mel thanks for the info about the salt thing! :D I was actually wondering about that too! :D But I'm just to lazy to ask over there, since normally noone's answering! ;D

    @Teekanne morning hun! ;D You're up 'early'! ;D
    Well I don't know if switzerland is expensive, I don't think so actually! But well we do earn more money here, so therfor all is more expensive! :S well you'll see for youself in March the latest! ;D

    I'm doing great! And you?
    We have beautiful weather! I'm well-rested and my mom and I go to 'play' some golf in a bit! :D Well she wants to go and practice her tee and I join her and will try it out! ;D lol Let's see how good I'll be! ;D lol

  88. Welcome Back Teekanne!!! You sound like you had an awesome time! I'm jealous! ;D
    Did you already catch up?!?! Wow, you're fast! ;D

    Wait, wait, wait! You're shy?!?! I don't believe that! Especially coming from the girl who wants to poke Aksel's butt!!! LOL ;D

    Thanks for the birthday wishes! ;D

    @mel *shakes head* Looks like you partied! How are you not dead? LOL ;P

    I love the Drs.!!! Great show! ;D

    @Anja Sneaking into army barracks...is that all you did?? LOL ;P Looks like you have some moves too! ;D
    I don't think any man is hotter than Aksel! ;D

    @Suzanne HAHA That's priceless!!! Awesome!!! ;D Definitely perfect!

    @Anja and Teekanne If you ladies are too shy, I'll talk to the men then! ;D I'll set up a date for you two!!! ;D

    haha I went to my first hockey game a couple months ago! And my friends and I were joking that we would get signatures and hugs from all of them! My friends chickened out but I got hugs from the 16 players on the ice!!! ...and you're right...they do have missing teeth! LOL
    I love ice skating! ;D ...havent' been in a while :/

    @Marie Scotland?!?! I'm so jealous!!! ;D

    Nice heels discussion ladies! I'm short, so they come in handy sometimes...but I'm much more comfortable in tennis shoes or Converse!!! ;D

    @Ladies *sigh* It's a cylce on Aksel's blog! I've learned to accept that. The ladies, and gentlemen, don't know each other but for some reason, the discussions turn personal. And that always creates problems. Sometimes you just can't avoid offending others. :/

    @Anne-May and Mel There's no need to get defensive. It will cool off eventually.
    Just be happy! Come here, and party! ;D

    @Mel :( I liked the verification...but I'm probably the only one! ;D
