I quite enjoyed having a counter on at work today. It seems I've saved some quid so far and earned myself a bit of life and not smoked about 100 fags. I put myself down as stopping from after my odd puffs at the beginning so although it's been 10 days since I've really smoked it's only 7 since I haven't had a single puff. It feels MUCH longer.

I SO SO SO fancy a smoke right now. Just a couple of little puffs would do, not even a whole one ... sigh ...

My head's still aching.

And I've got turtleneck.

Get your head out the window and inhale some cold fresh air. Feel good to be alive and in control of the deadly addiction thats had you by the balls for years.

charliecat · 12/11/2004 20:58

Believe me....you came to this thread for a reason didnt you..????
There are a zillion good reasons not to have a puff, there are NO good reasons to have one.
