Herman

Seeing as I've developed insomnia in the past couple of months I thought now would be a good time to write a nice post on Herman (the Frog). 

This is Herman. He's a little blue frog made out of plastic with a heart of gold (actually he's hollow, but that's beside the point). This picture is actually him in Gent, Belgium, from my trip to Europe in September. Jesus there's a lot I did that I probably should have documented through something other than just a Facebook status here and there. 

So my best friend Kass and I were at Colony Place one day just shopping and walking around when we stumbled across this little blue plastic frog laying on the sidewalk. We decided we couldn't just leave him there so we picked him up and I decided that I would take him home with me. Not really sure if there was any real thought process behind naming him Herman, I think it was the first name that one of us threw out that we both liked. We thought it would be cool if I brought Herman with me to Europe and took pictures of him at all the cool places I went, then I would tag Kass in them. Kind of like she was there too. The idea caught on and developed into Herman traveling all over the place with me and getting his picture taken with cool people and places. We're hoping to get on Ellen someday. 

So there's the story of Herman and how he went from laying on a sidewalk to icon. He's actually reached celebrity status when he met Frankie Muniz and now has his own Facebook page. You could say he's a pretty cool frog and he's a great ice breaker.

"Hey would you mind taking a picture with my frog?"
