[shadow=darkred][glow=red]Today marks my first week without a cigarette. [/glow][/shadow]

Man that 3rd day was hard :hurt:

I think I might just make it this time.

Kick the habit now as you're just making life harder down the road for both
yourself and those around me if you don't. I've had several relatives die
from the habit, going through voicebox removal, cancer treatments, having
parts of their lungs removed, being on oxygen, etc. Just recently, my dad
had a big scare where they discovered a spot on his lungs. Luckily, it turned
out that it wasn't cancer like we had suspected, but it was emphysema which
means that his lungs are permanently damaged. He's not to the point where
he's going to have to go on oxygen or have surgery, but it has slowed him
down quite a bit as you can't do as much when you can't breathe well. The
only good thing about the experience as it was a wake-up call for him and he
listened to it. He's now kicked the habit. Now, if I can just get my mom to
do the same. She seems to want to blame my dad for getting her started in
the first place more than to stop.

Seriously, Congrats on your decision to stop.

Just think, the money saved on cig's can now be spent on cels! :multi

congrats on your first week! :elephant

my mum said when she quit she had really vivid dreams about her smoking a cig, and she's wake up wondering if she really had or not.

Good for you man! You're better without it. But realize this: If you ever revert to smoking tobacco again we'll disown you and throw you out into the cold. So there. :P

Where? Maybe we could shuttle NSP off to an Ice planet where he can atone for his sins. What do you think about that, Cloud?

Perhaps. Let's get back to that later. Do you think I should know that?
