Starting today, Im trying to quit smoking. Stress on the word trying. Now for those who thought I've quit a long time ago, you're dead wrong. Sorry. I tried but my heart wasnt into it. This time, Im really gonna try.
Ive already prepared myself. I stocked up on gum and candy as a substitute for my after meal fixes. This is going to be a long and arduous road. Now I need to stay away from people who smoke my cig brand. Just one smell of it and ill most likely follow the scent as it drifts in the air. Kinda like the smell of coffee for a caffeine addict.
Ive never REALLY tried quitting before. Then again, I only started smoking last November. I know its bad for my health, but when you have all that angst, smoking is the only thing I can resort to as an outlet. Well, that and physical violence. hehehe Of course I ruled out physical violence. Im not big on catfights with the same gender. :P
But the government is wrong about one thing: smoking isnt just dangerous to one's health. I mean, for one thing not having a fix for a day really drives me nuts. Me moving back at our house makes it all the more difficult for me to just light a stick anytime I want to. Its also dangerous to a person's sanity. Now if that is not enough reason for me to quit, then maybe we should all light a stick and stay crazy.
Oh, and if my detox program fails miserably, either you guys send me to boot camp or iron out the straight jacket for me. :p
