Eighth day of quitting cold turkey. 8:00, over coffee: I wish I were on the porch smoking! 8:30, in the car: it smells great in here, I love this! 10:00, at work: smoke 'em if you got... oh wait! 10:30, with a co-worker: they're proud of me and I'm gonna stick with it! 12:00, on the way to lunch: if I don't like smoking, why does his cigarette smell like the best thing in the world? 1:00, on the way back: no need to roll down the window, this is awesome! 1:30: the next person that walks into my office is getting a &#?*!!#@ stapler thrown at their %!*#@*! face!

I started smoking as soon as I possibly could, and loved it from the very beginning. Nicotine never left my side; I let it become ingrained in everything I did, a part of my identity. As more and more of my friends quit I continued to smoke, and even more. Now I know that I am a nicotine addict, and long to live life as a free and happy ex-smoker.
