Potty Mouth, Part II

Let’s take a quick moment.

My husband just died.

He choked on mortification while reading my comments pertaining to, well, hairier parts of the male anatomy.

And then he died of embarrassment.

He and his hairier parts were loved and will be missed.


Okay- on a more serious note, I want to take a quick minute to re-post a small disclaimer I made regarding my potty mouth.

I am not proud of it. And I get all gloomy when I think that my inability to keep things to myself may alienate or offend people. I wish I was more graceful. I truly do.

I understand that some people don’t dig the crass candor and I truly understand.

But (pun), I also want to tack on another little disclaimer that sometimes I may post boy butts.

I can’t help that either. I love those little bubble butts more than anything.

I can’t keep myself from grabbing them, and we even have a little song about them that we sing after bath:

I see your hiney,
All white and shiney.
It makes me giggle,
To see it wiggle.
If you don’t hide it,
I’m gonna bite it.

I just love me some butts around here and I’m sorry if that makes people a little uncomfortable.

I could act all indignant and say “I don’t care what makes people uncomfortable. This is my space and if you don’t like it I don’t care.”

But the truth is that I do care and I don’t want to make people uncomfortable. I just have a little bit of a knack for it.

So, I’m sorry in advance if I inadvertently offend anyone.

I promise I’m not all bad words and inappropriateness.

I have good (serious minded) content in my head (somewhere deep) that I promise I will get to as soon as I get all this “Blogging about Blogging” out of the way… (which is sort of annoying, huh?).

If you stick around, you may enjoy yourself. You may give me life altering advice. Or you may hunt me down, stalk my family and make out with me because you love me so much. It’s all good.

Conversely, if you need to move on and blog break up with me, I understand. We had fun while it lasted, you and me.

30 awesome people had somethin' to say...:

I LOVE IT...I hadn't read the comments all the way yet from your "Commenting" post. I'm so going to say "oh shes taking the lesbian test".
Actually I have seen it a few times now! Just keep refreshing and the ads will change, it should come up for you eventually! LOL
I feel the same way about butts and potty mouths....but not together. yikes. I care a little, but ultimately, I can't help it.

noble pig said...

I love da butts too...don't worry about...really!

Chubby Mom said...

I am stealing your song. I have a house full of little boy bottoms. There are few things cuter.

Seester said...

Its so normal in our home to clench your jaw, pinch a nakey hiney and giggle with delight. We have a normal hiney, a tiny hiney and chubba wubba cellulite hiney (not mine mind you). I love them all equally, more than I love most things.

Heather said...

WHERE. ARE. THE BUTTS.

You tease!

Danielle-lee said...

I love your hiney song! I need to steal that!
I don't mind your potty mouth or your butt pictures, or you references to said hairy parts. No worries here!

Rachel said...

Hot damn~ Here you are!! I've missed you. Where have you been?
Where have I been?
I'm so glad you commented today. Seriously, that SFC is so easy to make. You could do it and your hubs will be thrilled and wowed and probably perform unspeakable acts of eroticism for you because you made that tonguegasmically delightful dish for him!!
*adding you to reader NOW*

I'm also going to read up on your older posts so I can figure out what you're talking about.

Angie said...

BTW-I just read your profile and must disagree with the Pepsi thing. I am a Diet Pepsi girl. My sister, however, does leave restaurants if they try to pass Diet Pepsi off as Diet Coke. She has issues with Panera-loves the food; hates the Pepsi products. That's one of my favorite reasons for going. Well, that and the chicken and wild rice soup in a big.fat.breadbowl.

Enjoyed your blog...the post about Cannon will definitely make any mother or grandmother grab their hankies! Blessings, marlene

Z's Mom said...

What a nice disclaimer.... I do like the butts myself and I, like the others, will need to borrow that song from you. I just found you...no blog break up here! :)

Talisman said...

Eh, people need to stop being so hoitey toitey. It takes all kinds to make the world go 'round and it's not like you're like me, dropping the F-Bomb in every blog post. ;) Honestly though, you can't please everyone and if I offend them, I likely have very little in common with them so why would I want to be "friends" with them anyways?

On the other topic... I like boy butts too. If I see one I have to pinch it. I think I've scarred my toddler for life. ;) Of course, I did the same thing to his older brothers and they're mostly normal... well as normal as a boy can be.

Mrs. R said...

You are so stinkin' funny. I love the song!!! I am adding you to my blog roll just for that song.

MomMega said...

Hee hee...I have no idea about the tune to that song, but I am singing it in my head. Can't wait for bathtime tomorrow. I love me some little butts!!

Scary Mommy said...

Thanks a bunch. I have had that song in my head since last night!!!!!!

Alice said...

Ummm..yeah...my mom (who's thumb I am apparently still under) just wrote to let me know that she cringes when she reads curse words in my blog. *sigh*

EmBee said...

I'll still be here... Because, I... GET... You!
*to be read as, "You, complete, me! (ala Jerry Maguire)... But I wouldn't say that because that would be SO Awwwwk-ward!*

Rph Mommy said...

Just found a new song to add to Wee One's bath repertoire.

Lurve me some of those little bubble butts too.

thenewbornidentity.com said...

You totally need to sing that butt song when your boy goes on his first date...it'll ensure he won't get into any trouble!!!

Carrie said...

I like boy butts and I cannot lie

You other mothers can't deny

That when a boy walks in

With a rump of smooth skin

It puts a smile on your face

They can see it from outer space

So take a nip and leave him

Push your kid away, then retrieve him

Now grab another bite, just for spite

They love it when you tease them.

Danielle said...

!!!laughing!!

Carrie! you have too much energy and creativeness! This is hysterical!

My brother used to sing this song when he was about 6! Looks like we have another song for after bath!!

Mama's Losin' It said...

Hoe funny, my husband and I were just talking about this this morning. A fellow blogger told me she didn't like Pioneer Woman and thought I was better than her, because Pioneer Woman calls her brother retarded. I was like....ummmmm.....

I looked at Pat and he laughed because I say retarded all the time at home. So we started this big discussion about what kind of readers I attract and who out there might hate me. I try not to use offensive words when I blog but sometimes "retarded" might slip out...and I'm like you...I kind of care about offending people. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, but at the same time I can't really change who I am and sometimes people are slightly over sensitive...I guess it's just a fine line we walk here in blogland...

I love your disclaimer though...and your husband's hairy balls.

Stephanie said...

This is hilarious! I gasped when I read your husband died and started cracking up as I read the rest of it. Now I am addicted. So funny!

I foudn you on a comment you posted on SITS. Love it! And will definitely be back.

christine said...

Oh, you are so right you are so my soul sista! i am completely adopting the hiney song! my husband just cracked up as i sang it..

leezee52 said...

I found you through SITS and your blog is awesome....It's ok I sometimes have a potty mouth too and I'm proud of it. I'm gonna add you to my blogger pals...K?

Danielle said...

Rachel - Crap! I've been hanging around over at your place but uncharacteristically quiet. Shame on me!!

Do you think my husband would do the laundry (correctly) and run my hot bath if I made that. Cause that? That's HOT!!

Great to hear from you!!!

leezee - The Blogess once told me "Blogrolls are like encouraging butt slaps. You don't ask, you just do it." Sums it up perfectly!!

jennifer, playgroups are no place for children said...

I'm stealing carrie's song!

Boy butts, well really KID butts are so darn squishable!

MereCat said...

Butts are good. Please don't censor here. That would make me feel like I had to behave myself or something.

Black Hockey Jesus said...

Bring on the butts & swear words!

Kellan said...

How funny! I loved the little butt rhyme! I like me some little baby butts and man butts - not hairy ones though - NOPE!

I'm Kellan - nice to meet you. Haven't known you long enough to be offended, so hope I see you soon. Have a good day.

Stephanie said...

Oh, no blog break ups here! You totally make me laugh!!!

Keep 'em coming!!
