    Default I lost the battle, but I'll win the war....

    The wife and I made it to the PACWNRS expo today.

    During the drive up I thought she loved me. I still thought she loved me when we paid our admission. Then she said "it" the one sentence that started the great frog battle of 2015......

    She said, "we should buy one of those dumbledor frogs" with a smile on her face, and twinkle in her eye. "You mean pacman frogs"? I asked, making a quick interpretation of "dumbledor frogs".

    "Like we saw at the last show" she said. "Gex's booth is right there" is what came out of my mouth before my brain could stop it. And off we went.

    Before the first shots were fired, let me explain the battlefield. It was set up like a grocery store. Candy(pacmans, mantis, small geckos) near the front doors, the good stuff, I'm talkin' prime rib(darts, mantellas, cool tree frogs) is kept in the back of the grocery store. Set up so you have to wade through aisles of nonsense to distract you from going straight to the good stuff.

    The first battle started while we were at the GexWear(awesome dude btw) booth with all the pacmans, as I'm looking at the frogs, and talking to Lance the breeder, I hear "he winked at me!" then she said "look how it keeps its eye on me when I move"

    She looked like a little kid at a ice cream stand,with a big smile, she's all doe-eyed, with this little green frog in her hand. How could you say no to that? Right, you can't. then shot two caught me when I heard "can you put a hold on him for me"
    It was that moment I realized, I'm probably going home with a pacman.

    If you're keeping track of sides, she's got two shots on me, and I haven't even loaded my gun. Was I going to give in? Nope, not today. Daddy's here for the back of the store stuff......DART FROGS, and they had them. Tincs, Leucs, and Aurautus oh my. That's when the battle got going.. back and fourth about "do you like this one" or "how about these?"

    This went on for a bit, when we decided to go back to the car and "discuss" what frogs me(frog guy) and her(non frog guy) are interested in.......

    I lost the battle for my darts.
    Please say hello to pacman the dumbledor frog, or dumbledor the pacman fro
