Day 13, need more gum

November 10th, 2008

I’m doing ok but I’m running out of nicotine gum…damn it!! Apparently, they don’t give you more than you need at the stop smoking clinic thingy as people have been selling them on ebay?!?!  Tossers. It just ruins it for people that really need the service.

Anyway, I’m doing ok but I don’t seem to want to go out the same as before?  I’m not drinking as much when I do go out which is weird. Probably good for me though eh! Anyway… everyone is still alive and I’ve nearly done two weeks. Wooo! Bring on day 14…

Only two left....OMG....

Only two left....OMG....

Day 6 and everyone is still alive

November 3rd, 2008

I bought a crap car this weekend, worked with my dad, did some building work, had a beer and still no ciggies. Check my bad ass. Well, my large ass - I’m eating a little more….lol.   One thing at a time Jon, one thing at a time…

Day 3 - still no smoke!

October 31st, 2008

Ok, that’s day three started. Had another drink last night, really really wanted a ciggy but didn’t have one. Sweet. Going to Top Gear Live today so that should be cool. Can’t smoke inside anyway, or on the train.

The big test will be this weekend, getting shit-faced and still not smoking. Bring it on… Got to get it out of the way at some point.  I’m also working with my dad this weekend who smokes 20 a day so that could be quite hard. Still, I’ve got to get over all these hurdles…thank the lord for my little saviours, the nicotine replacement jobbies. Especially the inhilator - really works. Over and out… I’ll still kill you all…

Day 2

October 30th, 2008

Ok, went for a beer with Simon last night - got through it, just.  Didn’t murder the wife but definitely got a little twitchy.  Didn’t sleep very well cos of the nicotine patch which doesn’t help and my mouth tastes all funny. Hmmph. The whole ‘excitement’ of giving up smoking starts to fade as quick as a black shirt in the washing machine.

Still, I knew this would happen and I’m good. I reckon I can get through day 2.  Oh yeah, went to the smoking clinic last night and got some more supplies and one of the silly bitches kept taunting me putting her fingers to her mouth and pretending to smoke?  I mean wtf?  She’s dead to me now…

Anyway, don’t fucking talk to me. Lol

Packing in the smokes

October 29th, 2008

So, my first post. What do I write about? It’s got to be giving up smoking. It just so happens that today is my first day of giving up.

I (was) a 20-40 a day man so it’s definitely going to be tough but I know I can do it this time.  Every time before I’ve tried to give up I’ve been really panicked and worried about it.  I don’t feel like that this time. It’s different.
