My nose won't stop bleeding.

Not on mine. I have this stupid show called "Drawn Together" on now.

is it part of the comedy central festival?

If you go to comedy central, you can check out the schedule yourself. Maybe you can make more sense of it.

I don't have a clue what you are talking about, littlek. I don't see anything about a comedy festival on their website at all, and I don't see anything on but regular programming on the channel. But don't worry, I won't lose any sleep over it.

About two hours ago was two full weeks without smoking for me. I still feel like I want one all the time though. And it's not getting easier at night when I come home and I'm just here alone. So I get on A2K. Or practice italian. And suck down Werther's originals one after the other for hours. I suck on the lifesaver lollipops too, but the Werther's have become, by far, my favorite new addiction. I have gained about two pounds...I don't think that's too bad, really.

This is really f*cking hard.

I don't care about that show or your nose, but are you set for your trip, er, or as set as you want to be??

Aaaah, the trip! I forgot to get back to that on the other thread. I just booked a hotel in Venice a couple days ago, and I have narrowed Florence down to about six or seven places. I should have that booked by the weekend. I have also researched a little bit more on Rome and the Amalfi coast portion of the trip, and before the end of February I should have all the hotels/places to stay booked for the whole trip.

Here's the link to the B&B I got in Venice. After I made the reservation, I realized that the room might be a little bit small for the three of us, but it's only for two nights. And I think it's in a really interesting part of Venice. What do you think?

And my passport came in the mail today! That was incredibly fast. I applied less than two weeks ago. they said it would take between four and six weeks. Sweet! I have a passport now!

So, in answer to your question, yeah, I'm pretty much as set as I want to be right now. It's coming together.

WTG on the two week mark, Kicky! Sure it's hard, but you're worth it. It won't stay hard forever. Sorry, that sounded like my mother Shocked

Ok, we've covered crutches, how about diversions? What else could you do instead of sitting at home at night? Hanging out in bars wouldn't be good - too much association with smoking and worse than Werther's as a habit, but maybe you could hang out at a bookstore reading travel books or at the library. If those are too dorky I'm sure we can come up with other ideas.

Kicky, perhaps you should alternate sucking on werthers with chewing on toothpicks - not for your weight, but for the sake of your teeth!

I am coming to this thread late and was wondering if anybody could tell me what kind of a conclusion you came to regarding the bloody nose. Mine has been bleeding a lot lately and I'm afraid I'm starting to run low.

0 Replies

Well, for me, it was all about keeping humidity in the air, I think. I used the humidifier I have and that helped. Plus if you stop picking your nose, that helps a LOT.

Now, I want to know where the hell I can find these damned flavored toothpicks that people have suggested.

0 Replies

Stiptic pencil and pressure to stop the bleeding, then Vaseline to keep it moist and prevent it from rupturing again. That would be my suggestion.

0 Replies

JP - and a cold pack to the back of the neck.

kicky - try a health food store.

0 Replies

Kicky just go bar to bar until one of them have the flavored toothpicks, then grab a handful and stumble home.

I get flavoured toothpicks at the drugstore - at the end of the aisle with the toothpaste and other dental stuff.

For you maybe. That postman you shot for "walking too loud" was ONLY winged and will live, but it did count as a 'bad' moment for him, now didn't it?

Did you make it through the weekend without smoking?

0 Replies

No problem. I even got drunk on saturday night and STILL didn't smoke! I didn't even really get any bad cravings. And I found those mint-flavored toothpicks on sunday, so I might just be able to quit smoking AND keep my teeth.

Glad to hear it.
