Oh noes: long time no write.
Several times this week, I've started blog entries and not finished them. This week has been a feverish flurry of working at work and at home and doing some necessary shopping in between to prepare for My Norwegians, as I began to call them recently. See, they're more than friends, but not technically family... it makes sense to me and is easier to say than "My host family from when I was an exchange student eleven years ago in Norway.
O GAWD, has it been eleven years?
My day has been filled with true Norwenglish, as we spoke a blend of Norwegian and English to each other and to Ben (who only understands English and is really nice about not being included in snippets of conversation where we barely realize what language we're speaking). They have gone to bed, I drank a little more coffee, wine and Norwegian aquavit than my stomach would prefer, and now I am thinking about going to bed at 10:30 on Saturday night. Lame.
I am taking all of next week off and will be traveling to San Francisco for a couple days with Ben and My Norwegians. Hopefully I will be able to finish the blog entries that I started to write about before we leave. Ooooo, suspense!
