e-cigarettes
This makes me think you smoke them online or something. Like a virtual pet. Seems like it would be pretty safe!
That's not what making out sounds like -- unless I'm doing it wrong?

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Steph, that's huge news about your brother. How staggering, that it came so quickly on the heels of your big convo with him. Wow.
ita !, it is GOOD to see you back.
I will soon be secluding myself in copyediting purdah for much of the week, so I may just come in for occasional gasps of air. Two deadlines on Friday, I have 2 houseguests Wednesday night, and organizing a shindig for out out-of-town friends Friday night. I will not have a lot of time to breathe this week.
As soon as I get this...something sticky off my touch pad. WTF? THAT wouldn't be conducive to smooth editing. (Secret Confession: I think it's Heath Toffee Ice Cream. Oops.)

Electronic cigarettes - [link]
Basically flavored vapor, with or without nicotine, in a wee battery-powered cigarette look alike. I've tried one. It wasn't an acceptable substitute. One with clove flavoring might help, but I don't know. They can also be very expensive, the reusable ones anyway.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
good for you brother -- strenght to him , your sil, you and anyone else involved in the process.
and good for you smonster -- quitting is difficult - and it can be done even if the cravings hang for a long time. When my dad quit - it was quite awhile for the cravings to go , but no more bad flu and pneumonia were major rewards.
go Erin -- we support your ability to get through this work.
and I'm sorry Sean , but demons ten to be stupid and only notice bad things. They are wrong. you might not be perfect , but you are an intelligent hard working and attractive person( in all ways )
I took today off and plan on getting a few things done including the possibility of too much tv.

smonster, I have a friend who made her own flavored vapors, I think she liked them better than some of the ones she could get and I think they were cheaper.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I have one of those. Not a substitute, definitely. But I can see how it could help ward off the panic or the bad ass cravings if you were quitting.

I know quitting is a bitch, smonster, but good for you for quitting. My cousin quit smoking about 20 years ago, but he had easily been smoking for 20 years before he quit. He says he had cravings, but he says he can't remember the last time he wanted a smoke.

Steph, that's HUGE news. Much strength to you and your family.
Electronic cigarettes
I have idly considered getting a clove-flavored one of them, because there are times when I CRAVE a clove cigarette. Like, for all of last year.

Teppy, best of luck to your brother. I'm glad to hear he decided to get help.
