Red face Stirlings swearing

ok, not that we swear much...but tonight as Geo and I were in the kitchen, I was joking that he was in my way because I was trying to get to the cabinet that housed the food I was going to cook for the birds.
Our conversation got a bit loud, and from the other room we hear a loud *DAMN*
so it was Stirling...in George's voice.

"Damn" tell Stirling we're going to call the profanity police on him...
I just hope when they show up they don't arrest George!

I shudder every time I slip in front of my boys. Can you imagine me having them in my office with me and letting out with a string of profanity to make a sailer blush? I can. I doubt it would be good.

'Damn' is kind of funny though. Especially since he used it in context.

I really try not to swear in front of them, but of course it happens. I was trying to cook in the kitchen and the dogs were under my feet and after a few times of tripping over them I finally yelled "get the $#%! out of the kitchen". Luca my YNA and my african grey Zoe are on the top of their cages in the living room and I hear Luca saying "chichen". All I could think of, if he puts the whole sentence together I am done for...lol. They are always listening.

Think thats funny you should have heard Tutu today.

My teenager is whining to me about something (what else is new) when Tutu starts going "whine, whine, whine" and repeating it until the teenager SHUT UP. It was freaking hilarious.

A couple of weeks ago I had to do some traveling. Unfortunately this required the teenager (17) to be left home alone. Standing rule is that no one is allowed in the house while I'm gone. Well since that trip Tutu goes off on these loooooooong vocalizations of "oh oh ooh ooh oh oh ooh ooh oh oh ooh ooh...".

I'm still waiting for the um, climax on that one...

Old habits die hard, or at least resurface on occasion.

There is a shop corella at my work and the young boys who worked there a few years ago taught it some choice words. So now it goes a little like this...

Customer: Hello, Bill
Bill : Hello
Customer: Aren't you clever!
Bill : f*(k 0ff
