I’m going to my parents house for a wee bit less than a week for the holidays. This means, good food, no computer, and NO SMOKING. My mom is hardcore anti-smoker-allergic-anooying about it. In fact if I told her about it she’d probably disown me.
So i’m gonna go smoke about 5 cigarettes right now until i get that yuck taste in my mouth, and then i’ll quit. No more Vitamin N for broccoli!. Sigh… it’s a good thing the actual chemical addiction is only three days… I just need to find something to do with my hands and my oral fixation now.
Any suggestions? Chew straws? Gum? Does gum really help?
Okay, he’s surviving. I forgot to ask when I spoke with him how the no smoking was going, and he has no internet access at his folks, but… apparently the lack of Vitamin N hasn’t killed old broccoli! yet.
El Hubbo has, many times, quit smoking just for the purpose of visiting the rellys.
I think you’ll be surprised how easy it is to abstain because no one else is smoking. Until something stressful happens. Like Mom pushes one of your kiddie buttons. “Why don’t you iron your shirts like I taught you?” or “Are you going to have ANOTHER piece of pie?” It will be then that the nickymonkey attacks your back like a pustulating boil.
Oh yeah, I’ve done the quit-smoking-for-the-rellys thing too.
