I'm making my New Year's Resolution list early this year. It's full of the stuff I never got around to in 2011. Lose weight. Be nicer. Write more. Read more. Curse less.
It's that last one I always seem to dismiss first and foremost. The first day back to work usually has me screaming the EFF word not once or twice, but multiple times.
Last year I tried to stick to it by having somebody hold me accountable. I was to pay Bryan five dollars for every profane word I uttered. One hour and fifteen dollars later, I cancelled the deal.
Only fifteen dollars? Nice hundred Nessa :)
ReplyDeleteMarvelous - you seem to have written my resolution list for me...
ReplyDeleteOk... Been drinking tonight and just posted the wrong comment on your blog. Reading one thing, thinking another. So onto the swearing, and yes I wish I could give up, or maybe just do it less. Good luck with that :)
ReplyDeleteThis post made me chuckle. I don't think I get through a day without at least a little low grade swearing.
ReplyDeleteBut, but, for fuck's sake, fucking woman, fuck is the most versatile fucking word in the fucking English language.
ReplyDeleteJoe- it would have been more if he'd stuck closer to me.
ReplyDeleteSharon- feel free to use them. Truth be told, I probably won't.
Dicky- haha! No worries. It only takes one margarita for me...
Sensible- Under my breath wouldn't be so bad, but I tend to get very loud...
Robbie- it's right up there with sh- er...Shinola...
i swear too much too.
ReplyDeletea bit off topic, but i had a dream the other night that you and i were skateboarding in san francisco and being chased by a knife wielding charlie sheen, who also happened to be your ex-husband.
id- weeeeird...the knife-wielding bit is pretty accurate, but Charlie Sheen's got nothin' on my EX when it comes to crazy.
ReplyDeleteNot swearing is over-rated. Some situations actually CALL for swearing.

Swearing feels good some times. It's a cheap and simple cure to many frustrations. Right now it's mostly @#%& Christmas >:)
ReplyDeleteCold As Heaven
Have a great Christmas Nessa.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! Maybe you could really just say "eff word" instead. People will think that you are losing it and be nicer to you.
ReplyDeleteHa! See, this is why I never bother to make resolutions.
ReplyDeleteYour 100s are always entertaining, Nessa. Hope you had a beautiful Christmas. And have a fucking good new year! ;)
Oops. I meant farkling good new year. :D
ReplyDeleteI enjoy the way in which you have discussed this particular topic. Very insightful.
ReplyDeleteFarkle you! Mother farkle! You mean farkle!
