quit tomorrow.....

180 degrees

My addiction was taking me in a direction I didn't want to go.  I knew I needed to quit, but I couldn't.  I had 5.3 billion reasons to keep going.  My health was good.  I can afford $120-150 a month on the shit.  The list goes on.  However, dipping was starting to get on my nerves.  Damn, I need to spit somewhere.  If I swallow, I'm gonna heartburn like a mofo......Got additional life insurance.  Mrs tarp non-nic user, 20$ a month or so.  Me, $200 a month!  WTF.  This shit is dragging me down.

I just reached 180 days of nicotene free living.  Man, thats the best 180 days I can remember.  I was contemplating what this really meant in the big scheme of things and how things have changed since I quit.  I thought reaching the HOF was a big milestone.  It is, but its not the end.  Your/My addiction does not just throw in towel and walk away.  But it starts getting much easier to control and deal with. 

I was out kayaking and had my compass out to figure out the wind direction.  I was paddling about northeast, 45 degrees on the compass.  Hmmm, my quit reminds me of half of this compass.  At 0 I was killing myself.  Day 1, I'm quit and I'm not heading in the direction of 0 anymore.  I can feel 0 pulling me that direction, but with support (KTC  Mrs Tarp) I will not go that way.  Day 2, same thing, but I feel good without Nic.  Days 3-7 hard to remember, the fog was thick but I kept going.  My support system was pulling me away from 0.  Eventually I made it to the right angle of 0.  45 degrees.  I guess I could head back to 0, hell I just proved I can stop dipping whenever I want, whispers the addiction.  The days continue to go by, more good days than bad.

90 degrees.  Whats so good about that?  The sun comes up in the east.  New day.  New Quit.  I'm in control of my life today.  Let's keep moving.  100 days.  Hall of Fame.  This is the second step in the making of a bad ass quitter.  The first being the day you made the decision to put the compass in your hand. 

Now that I'm past 90 degrees, the pull from 0 is less.  Not gone, but weaker.  Some days I don't feel it all.  Some days, it tugs at my sack with a vengance, but I roll on. 

I just hit day 180.  I'm exactly opposite day 0.  I like the sound of that.  I'm gonna post day 180+1 from now on.  I want to head the exact opposite direction of myself at 0 degrees.  I will keep my compass in my  hand, always cautious that the needle doesn't stray past the 180 mark.

Feel like you are losing your way or going in the wrong direction?  Here, take my compass.  It will lead you the way.

Yes, moving forward. Well said. I might just jump in the kayak with you. I like the destination you are paddling toward.

It's only a one seater, you're gonna have to sit in my lap :wub:

hmmm. Might just grab another kayak.

Day 107

The day I caved.

The day Sarah Palin became President

The day NYC fell into Long Island Sound

The day any sports franchise in Seattle wins a championship

The day I shaved my testicle hairs

The day I turned down nooky of any kind

The day that will never happen!!!!

Fucked up on that one.

Never give yourself an out. Ignorance = caver. See you on day one.

...it's over the line Smokey!

All right, mainstream Seattle sports are a fucking zero. Are you happy, you crazy fuck?

thanks for the help NOLAQ. When I think Seattle sports I think of Shawn Kemp and the Bone, Jay Buehner (sp?). Maybe they would get better followings if they recruited some of those hot ass asian chicks I see at the SEA-TAC airport? Fuck man, the asian voice on the airport train almost makes me spew in my jeans every time.....

You know what Pacific Northwest Asian chicks really love?

A hard to get man with a shorn scrotum. You're out.

How about the Supersonics in '77?

I believe you mean '78? In that case, they lost to the team formerly known as the Bullets

Yeah, Go Oklahoma Thunder! And it was actually 1979 (see the attached picture featuring Lenny Wilkins). Come to think of it, the Seattle Pilots were a pretty strong ball club back in the day too.

When the Seahawks win the Super Bowl three games from now, they will finish the season with a winning record and you will be on day one. Again tarpon, never put your quit in the hands of others. Be humble and keep it in your grasp.

Mr Nic User

I've started to notice something. Not sure how long this has been going on, but know I have him in my sights.

I sit on the ground floor, window faces west to a nice courtyard where people sit and eat lunch. They also congregate to suck on cancer sticks. Whatever I don't give a fuck, except for that one hottie with the big tits, boy would I like to free dive into those bad boys. I digress.

Mr Nic as I call him comes by in the morning usually between 10 and 11 and stuffs a fat stogy in his piehole.

This guy looks like a total douchenozzle. He's no taller than 5'6" and about that wide. His fuckin flabby belly hangs over his belt by a good 10 inches, fat fuck. Too many goddamn donuts (no offense to any cops).

Today he's wearing this god awful shirt that is a flag. Stars on the left, srips and shit on the right, what a fuckin homo! Not that I don't find that patriotic, but maybe it is the american way to kill yourself with US tobacco products. Legal in all 50 states!!

I wanna go out there and slam my testicles down his throat.

Ok, I'm timing his ass, how long will he sit out there. He is wsting your tax paying dollars to do this shit. Oh wait, I'm wasting tax payer dollars typing this rant. Oh well, don't regard that point. If you have a problem with it, you're gay.

you start out with " a hottie with big boobs" and end with shoving your testicles down another guys throat? ? ? ? :huh: I must be gay! :rolleyes:

Day 108

Guys that are badass:

*Inspector Clouseau from Pink Panther series (Peter Sellers)
*Cato from same (bad mofo!)

Chuck Norris is gay. He did all those commercials with Christy Brinkley and never ever did he have a raging boner. Nor did she ever show up pregnant. You know if he banged her she'd be preggo, his sperm can not be contained.
