Put on yer eye patches and polish up old Polly, Saturday is International Talk Like a Pirate Day!  ARRR!  Elena reminded me of it so now I have the date circled on my calendar. 

     Last year I drove Dear Hubby bonkers talking like a pirate and I didn’t tell him he had Elena to blame, nor will I tell him she reminded me again this year.  From the time I woke up until I went to bed it was shiver me timbers, arrr, and ahoy maties.  I’m sure I Arrred and yelled, “Hoist that mainsail” too many times.  That could be why he went to bed early… 

     If you want to drive your loved ones or work mates crazy for a day, talking like a pirate works wonders.  I even talked that way at the grocery store.  You should have seen the looks it got me.  It was silly, it was fun, and I had many giggles all day.  It certainly was a lift to the spirits.  So go out and have fun Saturday and don’t forget to ARRR and shiver me timbers a few times.

     (Oh, boy I can picture you all now…Man the bilge pumps, the sh*t’s  gonna to get deep.)
