Not a smoker anymore!!!!!

Watch it, buster!

I helped put that damn cookbook together several years ago. It happens to be full of a bunch of my friends' recipes.

Can I just apologise to Rae for hijacking her thread, and congratulate her on the monumental effort it must have taken her to get so far into her new life as a non-smoker.

I am still waiting for Rae/Misti to take me on their knees and spank so that I can quit smoking (again)

Thanks, Graham. Sorry for being such a bitch about it. I detest pot and any discussion about it.

We're waiting for you, Guatam!

Butt that cigarette, Gautam!
Quick, before it's too late!
It's just awful to see others taking it up again after having abstained for years. Exactly what I did about 4 years ago. Stoopid!
BTW Rae, am getting closer & closer to giving up, myself ... The idea just sort of starts to CORNER you after a while, doesn't it ?

'Corner'.....hmmmm.....That's a great way of describing it, Olga!

Come on ~ give'em up already! You can do it!

You, too, Guatam! :wink:

*only* after I have got my spanking !

Rae

Last time I gave up for around 15 years & I doubt I would ever have taken up the habit again had the sky not been falling in! Big, big, dramas!
I know from experience, for me it's best to PLAN for it & then I relentlessly work on myself till I HAVE to stop!

Man, I hate dramas! Icky little episodes.....yuck!

Plan your little heart out ~ whatever works for you ~ just know that we're all behind you!

Ahem.....

Thanks, Rae!

Now that you've given G a good spanking, he has no excuse, Right? :wink:

Absoflippinlutely!

Gautam!
Gautam!
Hey, Gautam, where are you hiding?

Working?(In Chicago???) :wink:

Gautam, now if that's all it takes to get you to quit smoking, get yoself over here! Book dat ticket honey!

Oh, msolga, when I quit smoking, my life turned upside down, talk about drama! I got divorced, my mother died, my sister came to live with me, temporarily, but this same sister makes me nuts, even tho' she means well. So, I was more than stressed! There's always going to be drama in life, more so when we most need to be tranquilized.

That was a test, misti.

You PASSED!!!

That was very stromg of you, Misti. A lot of people would use any one of those reasons to light their next cigarette. I'm impressed!

Okay, as I have got a lovely spanking from Rae, I have decided to quit.

From next Wed I wont smoke. I say next Wed, because I will be boarding a non smoking flight for 9 hrs - so if I can stay smoke free for 9 hrs, then I think I will be able to stay smokefree after I get off...

Though considering I am flying cattle class after a long long time (almost 5 yrs methinks), by the time I get off, I will be probably so tensed up that.....

But I shall resist !

Hooray!

Sounds like a plan, Gautam! Hey, whenever I have to take a long flight, I always carry Benadryl (mild antihistimine, makes me very drowsy) and earplugs. Then I can sleep through a lot of the flight. A friend of mine uses audio books with headphones...they put her right to sleep. An inflatable neck pillow is good, too, and it's easy to pack. And above all, remember...no tight clothing! (I'd wear pajamas if they let me! I'm never gonna see those people again!) You can always change into something wonderful as soon as you land.

Oh...and if I were you, I'd take a BIG package of sugarless gum.

Congratulations on making this decision! We're all behind you!!!
