Little Spoiled Brat Inner-Addict

Day 8:  Grr!  Damn printer.  Wrong toner cartridge- idiots.  Now I have to-  I have no idea where the receipt is. Idiots.   What did I pay for the wrong toner cartridge? 100 bucks? Too much to blow off. Me: idiot for not keeping reciepts.  I deserve to lose 100 bucks if I'm such an idiot. I hate receipts. I hate incompetence. Sick of technology. 

HAS THIS EVER HAPPENED TO YOU?  On day 8 of quitting? " Ooh... just a puff or two; because You're mad.  Because you deserve it.  Because...."

 I thought this got easier as the smoke-free days totalled up; a continuum : from "hell week" to - easier.  But my inner-addict is bouncing off the inner walls more than ever.   

No worries; I'll not touch a cigarette.  It helps so much that I just can't let all you folks down.   And I admire so much now, the folks who have years under their belt.  I bet we "newbies" seem like a bunch of whiners, huh?  

I've got my Eucalyptus pen.  I invented it:  just a cheap pen with the guts taken out, a dowl soaked in Eucalyptus oil inside.  Cool, refreshing, and from my little research , kind of good for you in moderation. (not vapor, just fumes)  

I ran it past my nurse cousin: she thinks it's brilliant and wonderful, etc.  

DISCLAIMER:  I AM NOT RECOMMENDING THIS AND SOME PEOPLE ARE ALLERGIC TO EUCALYPTUS.  I ENCOURAGE YOU TO RESEARCH THE BENEFITS OF EUCALYPTUS, ETC.   

It's just helping me right now.  I'm pretty sure that the best thing to put in your lungs is air.  DK
