Apparently I was trying to "help" and mistook whiskey for furniture polish.<br /><br />They'll hear nothing against it such as, "How the heck did a two year old have access to both liquor and poisonous cleaner?" <br /><br />They just always said, "Someday you'll have a child JUST LIKE YOU and THEN you'll understand BWAHAHAHAHAHA!"<br /><br />Nice.<br /><br />LOLJulie Pipperthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169574697104642479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13083972.post-68936695378842717322007-01-18T09:54:00.000-06:002007-01-18T09:54:00.000-06:00Sandy, my potty-mouth...errr, well let's see...I h...Sandy, my potty-mouth...errr, well let's see...I have one, a (not) nice sailor-y one at times if I'm honest. However, probably 85% of the time I'm able to use what I call Creative Cursing Euphemisms. My sister hooked me on SHEEE SHAAWWWW (which is a good save from Shit) and dog dog dog dog dog (which is a good save from damn) and my husband and I liberally use AHHHH FARFENUEGEN (sp? which is a good save from oh fuck!). <br /><br />In this particular case, I was so overcome with the surreal feeling of horror that I wasn't willing myself to NOT curse I just was past being able to form a full sentence, and as luck would have it, my mind fell away just at the spot of HELL, GOD, FUCK and DAMN.<br /><br />So you see, it wasn't restraint, just shock. LOL<br /><br />Of course yesterday, as I arrived at school, a good friend of both of us involved in this story walked up to me and said, "HA!" then could barely speak for laughing so hard, "BWAHAHAHAHA I hear YOUR KIDS ruined FRIEND'S carpet HA! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA I'm just glad we were NOT THERE! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!"<br /><br />I must have looked shellshocked because she said, "OMG SO KIDDING!"<br /><br />And I said, "No, no I was willing to cop to it. Except I needed to correct you, it was just Patience, as Persistence was in a time out for KICKING FRIEND'S DOG at the time, so she has an alibi." <br /><br />And, of course, this sent her in to further gales of laughter. Still, she let her son play with my kids after school so I guess our rep didn't suffer too badly. ;)<br /><br />Actually, I think it enhanced their street value at school. I heard one kid say to my friend's daughter, "You cut your OWN HAIR? With SCISSORS? Again?" in a tone of awed horror and wonder. Then my daughter said one girl in her class said, "Wow, you got to LOSE a TOOTH and PAINT CARPET."<br /><br />Wow.<br /><br />She must feel SO COOL.<br /><br />I said, "Patience, I hope you were TOO ASHAMED to even answer. I can't imagine feeling PROUD that you ruined Miss Friend's CARPET!"Julie Pipperthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169574697104642479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13083972.post-23470841061850796472007-01-17T18:36:00.000-06:002007-01-17T18:36:00.000-06:00Hi, I have been lurking for a bit and decided to f...Hi, I have been lurking for a bit and decided to finally comment.
