Nicole - 8 days is FANTASTIC. I wish I could get DH to quit. He bought a "Quitting for Dummies" book, so I was hopeful. But then one of the kids asked him about the book and I never saw it again.
Nevertheless, YOU deserve big congrats.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Thanks Nicole. I'll check it out, see what it says.
Still, my question for everyone who wanders through SB still stands, about what you did post-grad.
Perkins--it's certainly an attractive option, given the community out there...
And now I'm off. Plane-ma for me, please.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Post-college, I went straight to law school. I wish I had gone somewhere to work for a year or so first.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
s/grad school/law school and Perkins is me.

Well, shit.
Big!Boss just asked me why he doesn't see more of me...that I should be here at least 20 hours a week.
Um...no.
So, I laughed. I don't think that was the response he was looking for.

So, I laughed. I don't think that was the response he was looking for.Well, sometimes it's all you can do.
I'm confused, though, didn't you have a big conversation about Stuff with him pretty recently?

No. That was my regular boss. I doubt Big!Boss knows anything about what is going on.
I suppose I should maybe take it as a compliment? Or...he's getting impatient about the project I'm working on? I don't know. I'm just trying not to panic and figure out how to work 20 hours a week. I just can't do it right now.

I'm sure it's OK. Don't panic. Maybe mention it to your regular boss though.

I'm getting the pig!

MG, could you casually point him toward quitnet dot com? You don't have to be an ex-smoker to go there and he could even set his quit date for a year from now, if he wanted to. The people are very supportive and the site has a ton of good info about quitting. Good luck, hon.
I still have no idea why or how Jan 23rd became my quit date. It just sort of happened. Not even a month earlier I had snapped at a co-worker to back off from trying to guilt me into quitting (his dad was recently diagnosed with lung cancer) and almost stopped dating a guy that constantly bitched about cigarettes.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Bad = Killer Cramps from Hell
Good = Leaving early today to get a massage!
I am hoping the good will obliterate the bad. I have taken four Ibuprofen and hoping that will also help.
