There are now huge chunks of time (read: almost 24 hours) where I don't think about smoking a single puff. It's nice, although what I really want is to not think about cigarettes at all. One of the reasons I quit was because I was tired of how much they ruled my day. It still feels like that sometimes. Like I can almost see the ghost of a Cigarette King in the corner of my mind, still wearing his jeweled crown, still sitting on his high throne, waving his matchstick scepter whenever I feel like I might be finally, really, actually over it. I want to break that matchstick.

Hey Bess...the nicodemon will always be whispering in your ears, sometimes when you least expect it. The best way to deflect that is to get rid of it with positive thinking and putting it back in to it's scummy little hole. A great site that you may want to look at to give you more insight is quitsmokingonline.com. It is a free site that looks at the mental thinking of a smoker and it's great reading!! Keep up the awesome job you are doing!! WAHOOOOOOO for YOUUUUUUUUUU!!!

I give you credit. You made me smile. That is the funniest post I have read on this site so far. You are a clever writer. Thank you for poking fun at all this. I'm with Polly, stay positive, which you seem to be doing. I'm on day one and I've been positive due to the people on this site and being free from cigarettes and it's been easy. Can't wait to be where you are.
PS-Let's take that scepter away and start calling the shots ourselves. Thanks again.
