Thanks all! Feelin' the love... Feelin' the quit!

Y'know... I really did spend yesterday contemplating and enjoying my 700th day. These 100 day milestones are coming to mean more to me than my birthday. I mean, every fool on the planet has a birthday and a damn good chunk of them don't deserve it (cynical? Noooooo!). But, we few, we addicts who have chosen to take back our lives from the brink of extinction or addiction will result in... We celebrate every milestone because it's a second chance of our own choosing. How rare is that? Usually a second chance comes packaged with a heap of grace-n-mercy aimed at us. Not us, man. We choose. We own that choice. I choose, every day, to excercise my choice of that second chance.

Free and clean.

Old heads... Remember and refresh that quit.
Noobs.........Be thankful for the suffering because the freedom that is born from it is miraculous.

AJ... 701
Thanks for the great words of advice bro!

Wanna hear something cool that happened today?

Late last night I typed, "AJ... 599" then went to bed.
A few minutes ago I just typed, "AJ... 600".

What happened during the almost 24 hours between posts?... I slept about 6 hrs, rode 17 miles on my bike, drove to the coast with the fam, ate, shopped, walked on the beach, drove home, fed the cats, showered, snacked, lazed around... Y'know, just stuff.

That's it.
Just another day and...
I've worked hard to make it just that. Another day. No more quitting.

Just... Quit. That's what happened today.






Congrats to you AJ on just another day! :-/
You are a model quitter, a great friend, and a mentor for scores of new quitters on this site. Thanks for all that you do. Enjoy just another day today!
You are "the man" when it comes to being quit. It's clearly a passion for you and I'm glad you share that passion with us. Congrats brotha.
You sir are a rock solid quitter and a damn fine friend. Enjoy today and celebrate it with those two beautiful ladies that you have at home. After all they are the direct recipients of this great gift you have given yourself.
Congrats my friend on 6th floor. Definitely enjoy your day of just quit today.
Congrats my friend. keep doing stuff without the poison. Plus one tomorrow.

Mogul
'oh yeah'

Keep it up AJ. Things are just getting good.
Strong work AJ I am proud to be quit w you...see you back tomorrow!
Just quit indeed. You have worked hard for the freedom you are enjoying. Beautiful.
Well done AJ. Thanks for being such a good dude and great quitter. Proud to be quit with you today.
Very nice. Thanks for being here and doing what you do.
'cause. AJ. Rocks.
Congrats my brother from another mother! A little late to the party because iPhones suck but I got here as soon as I could. Nice job at posting 600. It seems like yesterday we were posting HOF and in awe of those posting 600. Those guys were (still are) rock stars. I'm not going to get into anything too long as we'll be doing the same thing in another short 100 days. Seems funny to say that as when we were new quitters, 100 days was a damn long time. Not anymore! Proud as anyone could be that you decided to quit when you did. Things do happen for a reason! Quit on brother!
