JamesSavik Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 Today is 19 May 2011 and I've been all day with out a butt. Decided to quit once and for all. Tried a few times before but never quite made it. This time I'll keep it a secret. Other times when I quit smoking I became such an asshole, people pitched in and bought me a carton. So far, so good. No homicidal urges and I only punched a few people at work. Typical Thursday. Quote Link to comment
Lugnutz Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Been there, done that. Years ago, one boss threw me money to get a pack and quit being a crabby pain in the ass. One good thing, I'm going thru a pack every 2-3 days. Been wanting to quit again (Happens every few years) but things get stressful and a smoke helps relax a fuzz especially at work. Think a problem out. Don't quit quitting. Quote Link to comment
JamesSavik Posted May 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Day 3. Hoping for the Apocalypse. Hatin' life. Contemplating bloody murder. All those coaches that I've ever heard exhorting athletes to DON'T QUIT, never knew what a pain in the azz quitting could be. All fingernails gone. Am starting to chew on an old wiring harness from a Toyota. Quote Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 I've heard Nissan harnesses taste better and have fewer carcinogenics. Or something from an old lNash, if you can find one of those, is supposed to be good. I guess you're not using the patch. C Quote Link to comment
Oliver Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 This time I'll keep it a secret. Thanks for sharing that. Wish you all the luck and strength you need. I know how it feels. (never made it, but you don't want to hear that, I think.) Quote Link to comment
Lugnutz Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 I guess you're not using the patch.C Nah, he quit cold turkey. It was cheaper than quitting ham. BTW, where are the zombies? Isn't the world supposed to end again? Quote Link to comment
TracyMN Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 All fingernails gone. Am starting to chew on an old wiring harness from a Toyota. This one had me ROTFLMAO As for telling, James, it's hard not to if it's all you can think about. Haven't decided if it's ever helped me or not. I think you have to care what people think for that to work in your favor... You do your best, that's all we can ask of ourselves unless we want any lasting peace in our lives... I'm all for a play-by-play, if day one is any indication, it will get better (funnier) before it gets worse (the other side of funny). For us, that is. For you: Tracy Quote Link to comment
Merkin Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 I was finally able to quit, years ago, when I got too sick from flu to inhale. I was down and out and on near life-support and of course I couldn't light up in an oxygen-rich environment. Try to get sick. Quote Link to comment
JamesSavik Posted May 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 5 days. The people in the office have sent me on the road. I personally think they really could have faxed the documents. Today I drove to Picayune and ate seafood gumbo and shrimp. Smoking is almost a reflex. So much of it is completely below the conscious level. I find myself looking or asking for my brand while waiting in line at convenience stores. The long ride made me really want one. I played loud music really loud. Found a nice floor mat to chew on. When do the cravings geaux away!? Quote Link to comment
Lugnutz Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 According to my brother who quit 6 years ago, they don't totally go away. Could try cigars. Or dip. Quote Link to comment
