Lets Not Swear

Ok Hello again. I am starting off by saying i am a catholic. It seems a tad unusual to start off that way but its important. It is the season in my religion for us to give up something for lent, in order to better understand what Jesus went through and such. I don't pretend to know all the details, but i get the idea. Well me and my twin have decided to give up swearing for the 40 days and 40 nights (did ya see the movie? I did i liked it) anyway, its proving to be a lot more difficult then originally anticipated.
Its like this, my twin and i curse on a daily basis. Sure i don't do it around family members and certain teachers(some of them are pretty cool with it) but when i get around my friends? Well lets say i swear so much i could probably make a sailor proud. Its so annoying and i can't just not do lent because this year i actually want to try to make it through the entire thing and not give up like a pansy. One would think if i can not swear in front of my parents, i could totally do it full time. But i never realized how much swearing has become a part of my vernacular. Twin and i have devloped a punishment system for everytime we do slip, we get a slap on the hand. And its not those girly slaps, we do the whole i-can't-believe-you-said-that-and-now-i-will-leave-my-mark-on-you type of slap. Ugh this will be an interesting next 40 days. Wish me Luck.
