Quitting Smoking
I quit smoking this morning. It is going pretty well so far.

I just need to get past to Friday and I'll be OK. My one smoking co-worker is off on vacation this week so this is my best chance to avoid temptation. We're each other's doom when it comes to quitting.

I quit for a few years, up until New Year's eve last year when I was a little drunk and had one, and then slowly over the couple months after that I ended up hooked again. So it's been a year now of on-again off-again smoking and I hate it so much.

Good luck!!! Hope you win the war against the COPD stick! :D

Jim tries to be courteous and I appreciate that. But everything stinks of cigarettes and it is tough to be aware of it because your sense of smell and taste are deadened by smoking. If I ever caught him smoking in the house or in the car I would skin Jim alive because those are shared spaces and I don't shit in his pants so it is only fair.

But, you will get through this Jim and you will really appreciate it when it is over.

He hates it so much. I tried not to ever smoke around him and only smoked outside.

The worst part about dating someone who smokes is "tobacco mouth." On a scale of one to Mussolini, how strict is (e:james) when it comes to smoking in the house and around him and such?

I was the one who asked for a cigarette, that's all that matters :)

But it wasn't you, no.

Oh man, I think there was an e-strip party last year right? I wasn't the one who gave you a cig at New Year's Eve was I?

It took me almost 2 hours to get from my house to the end of the block. I should've worked from home.

Not Sick.
I am finally, gloriously, not sick. I was too afraid to say so yesterday -- but today, today I can confirm it! 3 weeks of misery is thankfully over.

No more flus or colds or aches or pains.

It feels nice :)
