    Stuck as a pirate

    Alright so I have this really bad problem right now and as the title says I be stuck as a pirate. This week be VBS week at me church and last night was the first night. We have skits at the beginning of each night and I volunteered to do them. When we had our first skit meeting we were told about the parts and characters, a pirate, a cowboy, a space cadet, a frog, and a princess [it be themed as an amusement park so the characters don't seem so random]. I of course chose to be a pirate for I always saw meself as the pirate type. Last night after VBS and into today I have noticed that I am still talking like a pirate [just without the voice change I do] dialect and accents. I still have a full week of this and I don't know what I be going to do about this. Any ideas on how to rid me of the pirateness when I don't have to be a pirate?

    I will post pics when I get some. I be looking mighty good.

    Just accept your inner Pirate. You'll be a better person for it. I wouldn't recomend the the pillaging and everything that goes along with it. People tend to frown upon it.

    Yeah...you're going to a wake in my old neighborhood.

    ...but I don't want to be a pirate!

    Hey...at least they didn't make you the princess!

    Keep an eagle eye about ye

    If a pirate ye be matey, it sounds a sweet berth ta be in for to lay low the whole week in VBS. Keep yer wits about ye and an eagle eye out for any of those mutinous lot out to slip ye the black spot. They be up to no good, only plottin' to take ye place and depose their captain. Don't find yerself marrooned like Ol' Ben Gunn left to eatin' goats and coconuts, cravin' jest a bit of toasted cheese.
