Quit Smoking (read all 34 entries…)
101 days! 9 hours ago

most days i don’t think about smoking & everything’s great.

but with the holidays coming up – it would be really, really nice to be antisocial and smoke outside in the cold, alone. maybe with a mug of hot chocolate.

i just have to remember that the side effects of quitting* are worse & last longer than having a long meal with a christian family friends.

*not the moody withdrawal, but all sorts of awful sinus-throat-nose-related discomfort/pain/congestion/weirdness

November - DJ'd at a fundraising event 9 hours ago

Or, I made a playlist. Which took a really long time since I mostly listen to inappropriate music for a cocktail party.

This was fun but less satisfying than other volunteering experiences. Maybe because the effect is so indirect. I don’t know the nonprofit organization well enough to understand how the money from the fundraiser will be used.

Quit Smoking (read all 34 entries…)
patch + cold = dry throat suckiness 6 months ago

argh! i forgot i had the patch on & that it makes me thirsty. i’ve been downing tea & reading about throat diseases. phew… i’ll just take this patch off. i think the cold & fear will be enough to keep me from smoking today.
