So.. I'm officially a non-smoker. It's been a little over a week and man is it different. I've been a smoker for the past 10 1/2 years of my life. Crazy stuff. Just sitting here thinking about that. It's so strange.. how when you try to quit, all the smokers mob up on ya. Say the "you'll be back's" and do shit like blow smoke in your face,

smokers can be fuckers.

I quit something like 2 years ago. Keep it up! and if you stumble... get back up!

I'm presently at about the millionth attempt of quitting. This time is strangely different, however. It's all going so smoothly. I had one near break a few days after quitting and ended up putting my boss in a headlock, but other than that..

it sounds like guilt on their part, or a perception that you're trying to be "holier than thou" now. maybe it's just that they're projecting all the stereotypes of self-righteous non-smokers onto you.

i'm lucky that people have been generally supportive of my efforts to lose weight, but for the few times people have tried to dissuade me i find it's best to keep my head down, keep at the work i'm doing, and what anyone else has to say is irrelevant.

Yep yep.. We're crazy creatures...

That's horrible. They should be supporting you.

Eh.. I guess I don't expect much of most people. Should? It's questionable what people "should" do. I look at should as a goal.. objective. Problem is.. it's something like a competition. Sometimes the other team is ahead.

Don't mind me.. It's 2 o'clock in the afternoon and I have a wee buzz.
