Calling Switzerland?
I need to call Switzerland, because one of my dear dear friends lives there. And I need to tell him I'm knocked up, because I love him and I know he would be excited for me!
I just don't know the cheapest way to call Switzerland. Anyone regularly call other countries? I don't. I would take your advice.

collect. call collect for sure.
Andy is really excited, but when I told him I was knocked up, he told me that only unwed teenage girls get knocked up, and therefore that makes my child a product of loving husband wife love making, and therefore I should be referred to as 'with child'.
Haha. But we both agree that the term knocked up is more amusing.
And that if you take away the negative connotation, then it's actually quite true.
Andy was excited. I told him how nervous I have been, and I told him all the new things I learned about having a baby, and he said he's thankful that he was born with the dick. Haha. Andy cracks me up.
He asked if he would be able to hold the infant, even though he's never touched an infant (yes, he used the word infant). I assured him that he was on the list of people that WERE allowed to hold the baby.
Then we discussed the list of people who are NOT allowed to hold the baby. Like Kevin's cousin, Whitey. Andy told me that in his opinion, anyone named Whitey should be on the list of no baby holding.
Oh, and I didn't have to figure out how to call him, because I e-mailed him and told him I was going to try and call him, and he called me.
Kari--getting a calling card is a great idea. I think I will do that, because honestly, I still haven't figured out how to do it. I tried this 10-10-987 thing someone at work told me about, but I kept getting the message to please try my call again. Grr.
Melissa--collect is always the cheapest way, you are right:)
Haha, I am sure he would have appreciated that:)
andy who used to sing al green with us? LOVE him! teen agers, i think, should be "with child," since we shouldn't talk about little kids as knocked up or whatever. grown women, single or happily married, can be knocked up, or in a family way, or whatever. i think it's fun. it almost implies something saucy in your happy marriage...
Yes, that's the Andy! I love him too--he rocks. He's working on a post doc in Switzerland right now. I miss him a lot. I am pretty sure he stills enjoys singing Al Green, if his woman lets him.
