Oh, goodness No!  You're most definitely not alone!
My household goes far beyond picking up the "Britishisms", we 
scourgify and levitate things;  teasingly call each other Filch or 
Slyterin or MrsNorris; lost objects *must* have been disillusioned; 
and we all try to Accio the remote. 
Chocolate is medicine; we wish for Time-turners; my daughter is no 
longer the goalie on the soccer team, she's the Keeper; 

and mishaps are always Peeves' fault. :-)
