Day 120. Haven't had craves since way back but, had one on Saturday. What a bitch. No problems, it passed quickly. Trigger was getting ready to go to coach my son's baseball game. Getting on that field made me feel like I needed dip. It passed and I haven't had one since. But - I have to tell you guys about it. 120 days in and that crave was still there in the back of my mind. It came out of the blue.

Thanks to all of you. I have said it before and will continue to say it - KTC and the support  communication with folks on this site was critical to my 100 days. I couldn't have done it alone.

Thanks again to everyone who supported me. I am grateful and appreciate it.

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

Day 90 tomorrow.  To Worktowin - no, I didn't think you were crazy, I thought life would be better.  But, just didn't know exactly how much better, or when it would get here! 

I told someone at work (a dipper) that I was 80 some days quit.  Their infinite wisdom was "oh you've got this.  You are out of the woods."  While seemingly supportive, the context of the conversation and the non-verbal part was very interesting.  Here is what was actually said... 

"Hey, I'm a dipper and let me give you some advice.  It is ok to put down your guard now.  You don't ever have to worry about caving again since you made 80 days.  You have summarily beat this addiction and are no longer addicted."

Funny how that nic bitch sneaks around trying to find a weakness.  But, I know better.  I post everyday because no matter if it is 20 days, or 30 days, or 40 days, or 80 days, I quit one day at a time.  I can't put my guard down if I post roll.  I will worry about caving every day because I post roll.  I haven't summarily beaten shit.  I am addicted to nicotine and always will be.

90 days in tomorrow.  Still vigilant about my quit.
90 days?!?!? That train is getting ready to head to cowtown. Look forward to meeting you and kc guy next week for a burger and some beers to celebrate. Believe it or not, it keeps getting better jayhawk. Keep fueling that anger and keep in quittin!
Wow 90 days that's bad ass man I remember when you were tooling around here in Jun now look at you kickin ass and taking names and now the train is on the way to get you. Got your coin ordered yet its a big accomplishment be proud get your coin. I carry mine everywhere n when I get a crave now I take my coin out and twirl it in my fingers...n poof crave is gone. 90-100-5000 all start with posting roll and quitting EDD. quit with you today
Complacency sucks, one moment of it is the difference between being a user and a quitter....OIB

Day 80 tomorrow.
Couldn't have made it this far with out KTC, my posting roll, worktowin pulling for me; KC_Guy, Erussel (and the personal shit both of them owned while quitting) srans, and a bunch of other folks on this site.

Through all of this, I have learned something... 80 is good. 100 is better. But the best number of all is one more than yesterday. ODAAT.

Day 80 tomorrow. Someone else will be starting day one. I hope I can be as much of an encouragement as the folks who helped me.
Freaking awesome job brother. Keep it up, I am running a little ways behind you but I have you in my sights.

That sounds creepy in a way...lol....
