Oh Barnacles!

Mimi has taught the kids to say "Oh, Barnacles" (from SpongeBob Squarepants) instead of "Oh Crap!" and "Crapballs!" I hate to admit it but they most likely get the "Oh Crap!" from me and "crapballs" came from a kids movie. It is pretty funny to hear them say it. Chloe is saying it everytime I need to speak to her about something she has done. For instance last night, after getting out of bed for the fifth time I say "You are going to bed and you are going to stay in bed or I'll get angry" in my loud voice. (Not quite yelling but getting close)

She replies, "Oh, Barnacles, Gramps, BARNACLES!" yelling the last part.

It works pretty good. I recommend to anyone reading the post that they try it today. It will make you feel better. When someone comes up to you, before they can say anything yell "Barnacles!" at them. People are guaranteed to leave you alone.

Another pretty cool tool that the "stats" function allows me to see are all the types of operating systems that looked at the blog. Here are the stats:
