Quick rant for this evening.

Had a great weekend throwing down with the folks I went to college with 10 years ago. It's amazing what little and lot can change in 10 years. Within an hour of our arrival I was already being asked: "are you still chewing?" And I was damn proud to say NO! I'm 156 days quit. Although they were happy for me it was and continues to be a little bit astonishing how isolated in my quit I am. Except for ya'll fuckers here on this site. I'm just saying how individual this is and how much you can't really share with the folks around you the struggles we go through.

This morning was a hangover bliss neatly covered up with a mamosa and a half a glass of hearty stout. Nice and tasty hair of the dog so to speak. Then came the shitty prospect of driving for 4 hours back home (took 6 actually due to road side attractions). This brings me to the point of my rant. I don't have problems partying down and not even thinking of nicotine. What I found interesting today was that the hung the fuck over 4 hour drive tried to tip the scales. I'm resolute in my quit and fight every day but as things get easier and easier it continues to slap me in the face from time to time. I suppose my point is that you can't let your guard down. You gotta have someone on post at all times even if you think it's all good. So a big thanks to KTC today for simply being here for me.
long Drives are still my biggest struggle as we approach 2hundo. Gotta make sure I have seeds, gum, water, etc. She is a sneaky bitch, aint she?

Proud to be quit with ya brother

The problem is not the problem.  The problem is your attitude about the problem.  Do you understand?

If its too much trouble to post roll call, you could always fuck off.

Quit TONY GWYNN
The Tony G story is very hair raising. Putting in a dip before the wound in his mouth was even closed shows just how powerful the Nicotine Grip can be, and how blind addicts can be to the truth. Glad I am quit.

Weekends.  Not my favorite part.  I'm one of those guys that gets up early for work and generally puts in a busy problem solving day with little room for distractions.  Get home and fluff through the news and get to bed early.  Monday through Friday.  Then the weekend comes.  My dive in full throttle as fast as you can and hope you come out the other side ready to go two days of the week.  

I hate weekends right now.
Hang tough brother, you got my number if you need it.
Make sure you run some! I suppose you are doing that.
Just stay clean. You will find a whole new world of things to do. I hated the weekends too early on. Keep your mind busy, get some exercise.

My weekends are full now and I look forward to them. Spend time with my family, friends. Life is much better without dip in your face !!
Agreed.

I spent the last hour or so here reading like I usually do on the weekends when I don't have to work and just hanging out. A guy here posted a link that led to another link that had a particular resonance with me today. Part of it said: "The law of physiological addiction states that administration of a drug to an addict will cause reestablishment of the dependence on that substance." I know that this is preached throughout the KTC site but in the context of this article it really meant something today. Lately I've not been so much concerned about the day to day, although it continues to be a constant struggle. I stick to the quit and participate and keep moving forward. But the for some reason the long term future is freaking me out.

Thx Bros and here's to a great weekend!
