msbelle, I'm glad that G feels like he has enough Chosen Family to celebrate.

Today is the last day of this bout of PD and tomorrow Grace has surgery. I am tired thinking about the fact that I have to go back to work in two weeks. Too exhausting to contemplate.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wow! Good for you, shrift! I think they are upping the price by a dollar here, which means I should really quit this time, but I don't wanna.

Because books.

That's awesome, shrift. I need to quit, too. Jesse, maybe we should quit together?

But not quite yet.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure prices went up to $11 a pack here in Chicago, which was a small factor in quitting for me. I mean, I could afford it, but it made me cranky. Plus people were aggressive about asking for cigarettes and now I get a lot less street harassment.

I'm not sure what tipped me over from Not Quite There to Let's Do This Thing. I guess I'd been thinking about it for a while and then I got the Lord Voldemort of colds, so I figured I'd quit while I was already miserable.

My *problem* is that cigarettes are still relatively cheap here in PA.

Of course, that's over still $5, and I remember when they were $1 a pack.

I definitely bought two packs when I was in PA over the weekend, and wished I had gotten more!

But, you know... I can't quit before I go to Vegas in a few weeks....

I will support people quitting in any way I can and of course you can quit anytime Jesse.

I will just take all the money I've saved to buy a plane ticket to Hawaii this fall. We're waffling on what islands, though. Maui and Big Island, maybe? Or maybe just Big Island, because volcanoes.
