The doc gave me a li'l nicotine inhaler, which I used to call my "nicotine nipple". <BR/><BR/>The oddest part, however, was that I noticed that while at any social gathering I felt unbalanced by the lack of a "prop" - nothing in my hands, no attitudinal stance, no ironic huff of exhaled smoke to express disdain or humor, etc etc.<BR/><BR/>About a week later I was in a bar to see a band performing and it was worse. That is until I realized I could order a cappuccino - thus armed with a large cup, a few packs of sugar, a spoon and a napkin, I then had an entire collection of "props" which allowed me and endless variety of affectations.<BR/><BR/>Yet, after all this time, I'm losing it - I started having a cigar every now and then last November. I call it filterless cheating.Joe Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04326800254526438870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20232261.post-1143641577708758382006-03-29T08:12:00.000-06:002006-03-29T08:12:00.000-06:00Good show.

The squirrel queen is proud of you.<BR/>It's obviously not easy or everybody would quit at the drop of a hat.<BR/>Hang in there and we'll deal with the world of smokers when we get to it. <BR/>Puffers and their evil peer pressure. You've been hanging with a rough crowd.<BR/>First it's smoking,then the next thing you know you'll be hot wiring cars and joy riding.<BR/>Then it's on to bigger crimes like bank robbery and murder.Squirrel Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094701326429719808noreply@blogger.com
