silly endearments...

I was doing my usual chores today, and it hit me...I must sound really stupid
talking to my pets to any observer! We have a sort of curse when it comes to names.... instead of getting shorter they get longer! Here are a few examples...

Dora aka Dora princess pissy pants.

Sarah aka Sarah princess rodder face (I'll explain some other time lol)
Aka Princess rodder sarah face
Aka rodder rodder sarah face

Lola aka Lola burrblocking blue butt (again long story)

Moe aka THE Moe
Aka THE Moe toe
Aka Moe Moe

Saukura aka Polly prissy pants

Baby aka peakaboo baby blue head

Sausuke... aka Gigantor, aka big foot monster horse, aka Hugo Huge butt horsey

The point is either we lengthen the name with random gibberish or call them something completely different regularly. Somehow they have figured out what all their names are... but given the tone of my voice when talking to the animals (I know what I sound like because the birds just LOVE to repeat me to myself in my tone), and the things I call them I count myself lucky I live on a farm and people don't get to watch me or listen to the things I call my animals.

I'm convinced it can't just be me... I am always so happy to see all my animals that I talk to them constantly. I occasionally do videos of the animals and it shocked me to hear that I NEVER shut up... I just keep talking... I do it without realizing it.

Thats is typical for a woman talking about 8000 words per day, 500 per houre ( a man about 3000 per day).

That comment made me laugh and *nearly* rendered me speechless . My husband says I talk non stop, so I believe it. Lol

I'm w/Merlin by myself a good portion of the day, I talk to him constantly. He is very understanding. lol I call him birdy butt, little green man, bird boy, & boyfriend. When I'm outside, he calls for me. If nothing else works, he will call boyfriend to get me to answer. Shut up is not something we use here, thank goodness or he would start using it. lol

I talk to my birds and my dogs like that . I asked them one day actually "who does that ?' and I just wonder what they must be thinking about me talking to them like they are people that are in the room with me LOL .

All of our kids (mammal and avian) have pet names.

Our 24 yo daughter was always Sweet Pea.

Our 22 yo son is Drewski and Sweetness.

David, our 18 yo, is now mainly just Handsome. He's had tons of goofy pet names over his lifetime, but he's been Handsome since the day he was born and still is.

Luke, the yellow lab, is Cool Paw Luke, Lucus-bo-bucus, Lukity-luke, and when he's being bad, Silly Mutt! (although he has papers proving he isn't).

Max is Maxi-Max, Maximo, Destructo Bird and (probably) Maxine.

Jade is Jadie Jade McJadie Pants, Miss Fabulosity

Ruby is Ruby-bubi, Rube-Rube and Ruby-rube

Eva, the b**chy cat, is Eva Super Diva Goddess and Crazy Cat.

I talk to my animals all the time like they are little human friends. LOL
People would think I am nuts but I don't care...I love my pets and they love me.

See I knew it.... I'm not the only one who has weird long variations of names.

Now I'll expalain The "rodder" in sarah's pet name. She makes her usual cockatoo noises, but one sounds sort of like "rodder,rodder,rodder"... hence Sarah Rodder face lol

When we first got Lola she would always say a lot of words... one we never could make out and she would say it over and over "burrblocker, burrblocker, burrblocker"... hence Lola burrblockin' blue butt (she was a blue and gold macaw). RIP Lola (she passed away at the estimated (by our vet) age of 84). It was still far too soon for me.

AI have a little silkie terrier (freakeshly small 3.5 pounds)... His name is Jonah, but I call him cat dog, guinea pig dog, tiny pain in the butt, "Moma's little Jonah boy", pervert dog (he LOVES one of my cats), My favorite though is "truck dog"... We have a big farm truck and I take Jonah almost everywhere with me, so a lot of the time people will walk past a big rusty farm truck and inside is a tiny 3.5 pound dog...lol. Weird part is we have real "truck dogs" my husband has three hunting dogs. Two red and white irish setters, and Visla... but Jonah is "truck dog" (although he can't jump in by himself)

 

[ShreddedOakAviary]

Of course when I was little my dad and mom called me weenie... "Christinie, weenie, bo beenie" turned into just weenie.... So I also call EVERY animal we own "weenie" on occasion... cause darn it if I got called weenie so will everyone else...lol
