Yeah I had those numbers and used them a bit here and there. It is to those few people I have spoken to that I apologize. Y'all can throw all the f-bombs you want, I don't care. Cold hard truth is that I went back to it in the spring/summer of 2010. Why? Because I enjoyed it. Yep. Could put a wad of dip in my jaw right now and enjoy the hell out of it. But I won't, because I want to stop. I want the enjoyment of it to go away and never come back. Now, aside from the roll call and introductions, you will find that I am not on here that much. Nothing personal, but I met a few guys on here last time that I really enjoyed talking to, and it will take a while for me to make new friends. I have what executives call an abrasive personality. In other words, I am a smart ass arrogant prick, but I am usually right about what I am percieved to be an asshole about. Blunt and straightforward, the only way I know.
So, Chewie, Tom, Chuck, Adam, a few others.... Sorry guys. I missed yall.

After doing some digging it would appear that you asked for numbers over a Memorial Day Weekend in 2008. Did you not use these numbers, because your intro thread ends there.
Your mind is a lying, cheating, stealing whore. Your body is a saint. Now, who are YOU going to listen to?

Well Atomic I am noob for what its worth and I don't believe I'm familiar with your story but I'm sure there are a few quitters here that will sleep better knowing you have returned. I would usually take this opportunity to drop as many f-bombs I can on you in questioning your reasons for allowing you spine to "jello", breaking your word, knowingly stuff poison in your mouth, but its Tuesday and I'm feeling optimistic. So why not enlighten us? Teach me what not to do. What will be different this time? How will you fight to honor your word?

Well I think you know what you have to do. Get into your quit group, give up your story and help them keep their quit along with yours. Glad that you've decided to regain control, now use your experience to help yourself and others.

Look who's back. Been a few years I reckon, and yeah I fell off the wagon and back in the Coffingaggin. Gave it up again just a few days back, and here I be, the proverbial prodigal, begging for mercy and humbly apologizing to those I left behind with no explanation.

PM me your number and I will send you mine.  If I send it to you, you better use it instead of coming in posting day 1 after the weekend.  I will be around the house most of the weekend, except Sunday when I will be meeting up with some quit brothers in Boston.  I will have my phone with me though.
You have a PM.

Thanks guys, a ton. Long four day weekend of work and grillin. I'll whip this.
Any time brother!

Special request time. If you would be available this weekend for a phone call or maybe two, how about pm-ing me a contact number. I have a lot of outside, great weather think I'll slip a dip, work to do, and my home pc is still in the shop. I probably should have done this last weekend as well, but I made it through. The witch is out of my system, but man the itch is still strong.
I'd appreciate it, and promise not to call at wierd pissy hours, at least not east coast pissy hours.
Thanks men.

Some. I'm actually on my 8th day, but just my second day here, so I'll start with yesterday being my first day. Work seems to keep me busy enough to keep from getting in the mood for one, but the drive back and forth is difficult at times. The craving is really worst right after eating. I've been drinking a lot of water to keep from fattening myself anymore.
If you are 8 days clean, post em up bro! Does not matter when you joined this site. Good job on 8 days!
agreed... roll call is for the days clean, not days on the site.

Welcome. I gave up a 28 year cope habit 131 days ago myself....had tried it all...can say with absolute certainty....this site will work.

Post Roll in the August group and introduce yourself. Posting roll is very serious..you are looking me and everyone else in the eye and giving us your word that you will not under any circumstances dip TODAY. Get in the habit of posting first thing in the morning...takes the pressure off because Nic is no longer an option for that day.

Read everything, get involved, get a plan which includes some phone numbers to call prior to caving and asking permission. This will work.

Like your name but don't blow up at your family...they didn't do this, you did. If you need to blow up....this site is fair game....especially fun to pick on 40 and our resident homosexual...Jpine.

PM me and i wll give you my number....brace yourself, strap in tight...first 3 days suck...no gettin around it.....but when you get thru them, you will begin taking the control back from the nic bitch whose ass you have kissed for 26 years.

Now...lets do this....
Where is that Roll Call deal? You'll have to forgive my internet ignorance, as I'm not much of a community person, online or otherwise.
And about my name, well, I'm not holding Mrs. Diesel or the critters accountable for my stupidity. I happen to be a diesel truck and equipment wrench, and the Atomic part is playing on my signature line, and the environment where I exercise my profession.

I got to this point because I was a triple secret dipping ninja-sith, and having been busted for the third time telling my wife the same lie. "No honey, I'm not dipping anymore." For her, dipping wasn't the issue, I had done it since age 12 and was doing it when we got married. I decided to quit, then caved. Three times. The lie is what put the stress on our marriage, and upon seeking some help, I was directed here. I will probably vent on y'all and practice all my Marine Corps words I haven't used in a while if that's okay.

I do fit the stereotype. Redneck, hillbilly Southern White trash man with a wad in his lip, and I'll rip the seeds off of anyone accusing me of being something else. :D
I will be here everyday, with the possible exception of the weekends, as my home computer is having a stroke right now, and I'm trying to avoid having one while paying to have it fixed.
Welcome. Great decision.

You can do this. I am computer stupid as well. Think I jacked up roll for 3 or 4 days. Just post up and it can be fixed. Hold on to your ass.
