Man, quitting smoking is hard. Anyone wanna go burn down a monastery or something?
you can do it!!!! Just think about what you can do now with your cigarette money. I'll send some positive thoughts your way.
when I quit it was years ago and I did it on a buddy system with a friend. When either one of us was about to cave in we would call one another. We also added a wager so that whoever lasted would win out (I did). I had tried before unsuccessfully but really felt like having that support was helpful. He and I would call each other all hours of the day and night and just talked each other through the bad moments.

^^ After 18 long years, smoke free since 8/19, except for a minor mishap in NOLA for Voodoo when I was pretty quacked up at Kiss and the kid next to me handed me a Marlboro Light, which I HATE, but I loved that one! But never again if I can help it, I cringe at the thought right now.
I quit when I was pregnant and haven't had one since. I held an unlit one when I went to the pub one night last month and thought about lighting it but never did. Hopefully my will power will hold up. I haven't gone out or gotten buzzed many times since I had Audrey so I have not been tested very often. The thought of smoking gain grosses me out but when I have been drinking I seem to forget how bad they smell and how raw my throat feels after a night of heavy smoking. Having Audrey to think about really will help. Now if I could only get Dallas to give them up as well....but that is an entirely different can of worms.
more than anything I think for me , or at least just as much as the nicotine, was learning to live life as a nonsmoker. Think about all the associations ....with coffee, when drinking, after a meal....those moments felt empty. but if you think about it, there is no more or less nicotine delivery at those times than at others. Its really all about behavior modification.

Yeah, luckily I have friends who are respectful about it and don't give me a hard time or wave lit smokes in my face. Cigarettes were my main stressor at roo this year, since we got to the farm and found out that the american spirit tent wasn't giving away smokes this year, nobody in our camp had prepared for that, I had to front the last of my money for a carton on saturday, and some folks didn't bother paying me for the smokes they took. Needless to say, there are going to be two big changes to my roo next year. I'll be a non-smoker, and there will be a few people who will be camping with someone other than me. Well, and #3, hopefully it'll be nicer weather. And some delicious ham sandwiches.

For the 1st time in the over 4 years I've lived here, every single thing in this apartment is mine. There is absolutely nothing here that I don't want here. And it is awesome. Now I just have to figure out how to keep it this way.
So, is it actually a follow up to Forgetting Sara Marshal? I thought that movie was decent for the type, and Russel is ok, just kind of overly popular for reasons I can't understand.

It's a sort-of follow-up; the events of the first movie are referenced in this one. Jonah Hill plays an entirely different character though.

I'm still in Manchester, left the farm for the first time last night to go to a Mexican Restaurant and then sleep in an actual bed. Another half-day of work coming up, then packing up camp and the drive home. If you smoke cigs and throw your butts on the ground at Roo, you are dead to me.
"Get Him to the Greek" is easily the funniest movie I've seen in a long time...
Russell Brand was actually funny?
My boyfriend has always really disliked Russell Brand, but he saw him on Jimmy Kimmel a couple of weeks ago and said that he actually seemed really personable and funny.
I'm looking forward to seeing that movie, but we won't go see it at the theater because people around us never shut up during movies and it just makes the whole theater-going process irritating. Will definitely get it as soon as it's available on Netflix though.
