In which I preen just a little

Fifty-two weeks exactly would have been 12:30 Friday night/Saturday morning, but today's the calendar date anniversary.

I do realize it is wrong that I wish to celebrate my quitting anniversary by having a cigarette. I won't, but I sure want to.

*blushes* Thank you. The drugs helped. A lot.

You are Awesome. ::nods::

I would like to give you Magic Chocolate (it's healthy, tastes great, and has no fat or calories) in place of a celebratory cigarette. (It's ironic, but I think very understandable, that you have that urge.)

(And wow - $2000!)

Yup, I figure I've paid for my laptop and then some!

I tend to feel extremely self-conscious about putting it in these terms, but the truth is I have many of the same issues as any other addict. This is how I dealt with stress and in general how I made myself feel better for 20 years. (I'm always amused at people who seem so bewildered when asking, "Why do people smoke?" Because it's a drug and it works.) It's going to be a while yet before it's not the first urge that I have along those lines.

And I get Andy, yay!

Congratulations - that's fantastic!
