k.....
*sigh*
On occasion, I swear.
I mean--OCCASIONALLY I curse.
I'm not, like....some drunken sailor or anything.
Himself rarely mutters a naughty word.
k....He rarely mutters a naughty word that I UNDERSTAND as a naughty word. LOL
I do think he has a 'secret, foreign language' (LOL HE calls it English) and ends up looking all pure and innocent cuz we just don't KNOW they're naughty words!
So I'm going curse free for 24 hours!
Mostly cuz he said I couldn't. LOL
We had to have an understanding of exactly what qualified as a curse word, of course.
So the two of us sat at in the coffee niche and cursed. LOL
(glad there were no witness for that one....LOL)
And if I DO, by some odd chance, curse--I start my 24 hours over again.
Okey dokey.....easy peasy!
I'm a determined person!
I can do this with minimal effort.
He laughed.
Even MORE reason to take him to task!
k........
11:15am--READY, set......GO!
Yeah, yeah....I called him a 'chicken ****' at 11:17.
(he IS!)
*hanging head*
k...READY, set....GO!
12:25 I experienced a not so good moment with my shoe and twisted my ankle.
(don't ask....)
Arrrrrghhhh. (oh, if that woulda only been the word outta my mouth....)
k.....READY, set....GO!
12:27 the stupid LAST onion I had was rotten in the middle and spaghetti sauce needed made.
AND ---We have company coming, dangitall!
(that, by the way is NOT a curse word and starting over wouldn't have had to happen HAD I USED IT!)
Fudgebuckets! (nope, that's not what I called the onion messing with MY plans, sending me TO the grocery store--which I DEARLY love visiting, dontchaknow........)
k......READY, set........GO!!
I was sailin' along pretty good.
And then it happened.
Yep.....
12:55--The STUPID cord to the STUPID vacuum cleaner wrapped itself around the STUPID lamp in the STUPID livingroom.
Rawr.
RAWWWRRR!!!
*sigh*
I 'rawrr-ed' AFTER I said a........ different word.
RAWR!
k......READY, set........GO!
JUST so ya know--I'm now three hours, curse-free!
Wooohooooo!
GO ME!!!!!!!!!
(k......How long can you keep tape over your lips before it pulls off all your skin?)

I think I'd do alright with that if I stayed home and did a dvd marathon, or something like that. If I had to leave the house and go somewhere in my car? No chance. There are stupid people on the roads, dontcha know!
Good luck!
one hour at a time....
Not that I am gonna foolishly attempt this feat...(The Teamster just asked me if I could....)
Does flipping the bird count?
gigglesnort hehe
Ooooohhhhhh, I like the idea of this! Good luck, Mel!
(But I could never, ever do it. My language is appalling these days.)
*jeff b: VERY GOOD! Oh, man...you made me laugh...thanks!
*Mel: Oh...I don't think I could EVER do this! This would be like trying to see if I could stop breathing for 24 hours!
(I think "I" would need DUCK TAPE)
I'll send you some Reiki...maybe that will help!
3 hours is awesome. i don't think i'd even make 24 minutes.
Hilarious!
I wish you luck. I KNOW you can do it!
A few years ago I conducted what I called The F-Word Experiment. I just wanted that word out of my vocabulary. You know that it took me probably 4 or 5 days before I could get through a day without it slipping out of my mouth before I realized it?
When I finally got it down, I pretty much stopped swearing altogether.
Not anymore, though. I had a couple of VERY challenging situations present themselves and the F-Word Experiment was Out The Window!
Hmmm...maybe it's time to try again?
nahhhh.....
Is this a good time to admit that this would be ridiculously easy for me? Probably not. I have to be really, really irritated to let a curse slip. It's pretty rare for me, actually.
Good luck though, I'm sure you can do it!!
There is no way in hell I could go 24 hours without cussing. Cheers!!
Hehee! It is tough!
I had to start watching my mouth every since Sweet Pea was about 18months old and started saying "ship!" whenever she was angry. She never fully mastered the word, thank goodness, and has since forgotten about it.
I don't think I could do it. But, does it still count if you just say it in your head?
Cos I dont kmow how I could stop that.
