Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I know someone who quit smoking by immersing himself in either an iodine bath or an epsom salt bath.

That sounds...extreme.

by immersing himself in either an iodine bath or an epsom salt bath.

Because he was literally smoking? Due to being on fire? IOW, huh.

Go Cindy!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Go you guys! I will exhale in your direction, if you really really insist.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

apparently the iodine or epsom salts sucks out impurities and relieves the symptoms of nicotine dependency. Or, this is what my acquaintance believed.

Wednesday will be 21 days since I've smoked. I stopped taking the Chantix one week into not smoking because it wasn't agreeing with me. It's killing me, but I'm doing it.

Go team Cindy! Believe me, if this sticks, you will be so happy to be free of the evilest weed.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Go, all the smokers who aren't anymore! Congratulations!

Strawberry disappointment.

Yay Cindy! I gave up five years ago and have become the most obnoxious and huffy anti-smoker ever.

Go, Cindy! I've seen how hard it is to quit (my father failed at quitting two times before he succeeded), hang in there. You and your family will be all the much happier for it.
