So, as someone who has been smoking since they were 13 (off and on, mostly on once I hit college) I am pretty proud of the fact that I've smoked one cigarette since last Saturday. The trick is not knowing any one who smokes and not walking to Wawa.
Note to self: do not read your old emails. It will make you want to smoke. And cry. But mostly smoke.
So was this a congratulatory post or a self-defeating post? I don't know!

I say congrutlatory! well done!
Oh hell congratulations!!!! I think of it as well today I don't smoke. And then the next day is well today I don't smoke. And every day, even when I smell old stale smoke embedded in someone's clothes or hair and I think wow that stinks, every day I still think I would like a cigarette. Some of us are just so much more addicted than others. I am one of the totally addicted so I hear you. Change your habits for a while, I had to not read any fiction when I quit last, because reading and late night smoking were intertwined.
Good luck!!!! Don't try the patch or anything, it just makes the nicotine harder to really give up. Holler if you need us!
Thank you kindly. I'm relatively optimistic...but I expect the occasional minor lapse...but I also don't want to go back to full-time every day smoking. So, that's good. I think this is the first time I've actually not wanted it.
I'm impressed ! oh, and I miss you ;-)do
