Paus fågel = Pause Bird?

Gosh sometimes my brain just ends up in one big knot. After speaking English for so many years now, one thing I still think in Swedish is different sayings. Like there is a saying in Swedish that you have a fox behind your ear, meaning you are a bit sly and cheeky. Now these keep popping up in my head all the time and I have the most difficult time trying to explain them to English speaking people. Well while waiting for my girl to come out of school yesterday I was doodling to pass time and I instantly thought it looked like a paus fågel... a little thing you put in between to pass time.. well in English it becomes paus bird.. which makes no sense at all! I looked like a fool trying to explain it to another waiting mum.. Oh well I guess that part of my brain will always stay Swedish :)
