We are old. Also, get off my lawn. There was an art to the "musical narrative" that tied an album together, a constraint within which freedom could be stretched. Like so many other things modern mainstream music has nearly killed. There, those are my contributions for dinner.

3 months? No wonder you feel like splurg! Happens to the best of us, three's are the enemy. Know what else happens even when crapular? NOPEing. Way to NOPE.

Read read read. I know it's a cliche, but education really is the key here. If you haven't perused whyquit,com yet, a lot of us found the materials there immensely helpful. Remember, they call the first one "Hell Week" for a reason - face it straight on, you'll be fine. Watch the blood sugar, fruit juice is your friend! Also lots of ice cold water.

Apparently. According to {{blech}} Wikipedia, he declined Page's offer due to the latter's rumoured "heavy reputation as a Crowleyan black magician"! Later turned down Deep Purple due to contractual obligations, and toured with the Stones but missed playing at Altamont where the Hell's Angels famously went berserk and killed the hippie era. There's also Jethro Tull and Fleetwood Mac in the mix, and I can totally hear both of them in his music, along with a lot of other stuff. I can't stop listening.

How come no one told me about him? When's the last time you listened to a whole album, front to back, over & over? * I just made that title up. Good huh?

And then some. <_<

amirite?

Buckle up, the next few days might get a little hairy. Nothing you can't handle though, if you've lurked on the board then you know some of the characters that made it before you - it's not a high bar. Welcome aboard.

OK?? It's awesome! Anyway, I keep it in a ducktail.

Gah, I missed another one. I'm bad at this. Congratulations on two years, and a nice speech to boot. Looking forward to hearing it again next year!

What's next, are you gonna dip my pigtails in the inkwell? Man, get over me! I'd suggest you get us a room, but that room's got a view I don't need to see.

You're embarrassed?? Why don't you write like that all the time? F***ing brilliant.

I just discovered the most amazing musician. 40 years later.

Your insults just run off my back like... well, I can't think of a good metaphor.

I don't know anything about doctors but I don't think they tell you anything over the phone or email. Don't let your head get away on you. It could be something, it could be nothing, and everything in between. The only thing I'm sure of is that smoking will make everything worse and you'll feel horrible. Whatever this is, you're going to face it without cigarettes, because that's who you are now.

Sounds like a dream you needed to have. Last week I walked into a vape shop on a whim and spent the whole night dreaming about vaping. I never even vaped in real life, but now I feel like I know how much it would suck. Thanks dreams! Also, good work for the sos, and again for not smoking. I'm deducting a half point for going running, cause now you're just showing off.

This won't end well. ps It's fake.

Whatever happened here, that's awesome news. Not an easy way to quit - she's earned it.

Way to go Doreen! Sorry I'm a day late - two years was a real moment of "finality" for me, and deserves to be celebrated.

Warrior, how are you doing? The addiction dies hard, and sometimes it can come out of nowhere and bite you you-know-where. Think of it as a fever that you have to break - it won't stay this way. Be strong.

so hot

Hi Michelle, sorry I'm late, but thank you for the great read!! This is exactly how it's supposed to go, how it has to go. You were tempted, you obsessed, you womaned the hell up and got past it. Perfect. This is exactly why you're here, and why we're here. You win this round, you badass. But there will be more rounds, so bookmark this thread to remind yourself in those moments of weakness who you really are. You'll go through it again and again, and each time your junkie lizard brain will learn how hard you are, and get that much weaker, until eventually there will be no more struggle. Good work.

Hey MeatHead Happy Anniversary!

somehow it's funnier when you do it

my grooves are sublime as a poo-flinging monkey
