Smoke em if you gottem!
Well Im about 3 weeks into quittin smoking. I have slipped up once or twice but overall Im managing to kick it quite well.
Until recently I saw no reason to quit. I liked doing it, it looked cool and I was tempting fate all at the same time. However after becoming deathly ill for about the 6th time this year I have decided that I no longer want to be sick all the bloody time.
Its annoying and I dont like it. And apparently smoking is bad for your health and your immune system. Damn those preachy stickers on the packets.
While there are some great pros to quitting : better health, less stinky, better skin, less bowly, gettin a better sense of smell and taste and saving money etc.
However there are some cons. Some horrible cons...
The cravings are pretty bad. Of course this will pass but goddamn its nice to smoke when you have a beer. Or when you get home from work. Or when youve had a nice meal...oh i miss it so.
Then there are the nice social interactions when you smoke. Sitting outside talking about how to save the world. Acting like a wanker...blah blah.
But the worst of all is the loss of 'cool'. Smoking is cool. Lets face it. People who do it look great. Girls look sexy when they do it too. And it keeps you busy. If you are standing waiting for someone you are gonna look a hell of a lot cooler if yr smoking than if yr just standing there like some fat chump. am i right!?
So to counteract this loss of cool im gonna have to come up with a new edge to my style. I thought of chewin gum, constantly combing my hair...but none of these seemed to fit.
Ive decided to become a coin flipper. just stand around flipping coins. of course im gonna have to get a lot more coordinated to make this look cool. i drop shit all the time. but if i can successfully pull of a cool coin flippin attitude i should have a great life ahead of me.
be a great way to meet cool people too..
'hey what you doin there'
'just flippin'
'mind if i join you?'
'go right ahead'
*blank stares as flipping ensues*
oh yeah. Things are lookin up for this recent non-addict...
