Mike

bakon, Nice of you to start this thread, (I haven't read it yet), and all the posters in it. Seems a long thread already. I smoked last nite, and am smoking again, today. I apologize. I'm kinda ashamed. You've already invested so much into my quit. Yet here I am, throwing it all away, again. I am not the person I was before. Or, it seems like this. My other times when on "the sites", I felt strong, and in control, (or at least until towards the end of my last quit). I don't feel that way now. Dancer; You were speaking of needing a quitting partner to run with, or something to that effect, and I said "You bet". I cannot be this person though, even if I was still "clean" and had not smoked. Please, connect with the others, as I know you can. So, there you have it.

I will not smoke today.

Yep, just over 24 hours, without nicotine. No quit-smoking aids, but the QT. Thank you, everyone, for putting up with my rantings and such before quitting. I really appreciate your patience. I needed to prepare myself for the quit, and get familiar with the QT. Thank you, for welcoming me. The first 24 hours quit, where a surprise. I am not having the old-familiar cravings. (You know, those seemingly every minute jolts of "I want a cigarette"). Maybe, just maybe, I am finally experiencing an "Easy Peasy" quit. :)

Thanks, Babs. I enjoyed your pics by the way.

Ya, Ava. What's more important in one's life, than that. Good one!

No. Thanks, I will look for it later, when my head isn't in the clouds. Have ever flown in a small airplane into a cloud. It looks like you are in the middle of a ping pong ball. That's me right now. :)

You bet!

Hey, dancer. I am just ~23 hours from my last hit on a butt. (Quitting again). I don't know by what name you will remember be by, Schmokefree, oh yes I had a panda bear avatar a few years ago, then the stop sign. But, I think you should remember me as Mike, too. Take it easy. No pressures here. I too, needed to join some friends on a site again, to help me sustain a quit. (If that is what you are doing). Anyways ... good to see you!

huh?? When I look at the bottom of the main page, to see what members are doing, I often see "Searching", or something like that. So to try it, I stuck "Mike" in the search box, and this was on the first page. You guys make my heart ache, sometimes. ... I wasn't lurking, I was busy smoking and slaying dragons. luv yous

I will not smoke today.

Sounds good. But, I just heated some brown rice, chicken and mixed veggies. I'll keep in in mind, (of which I still have). 6

I'm bored. I think I am going to eat something. 6
