Woooow

1,406 today.

I relish typing that comma every day. And, unlike some, I will ALWAYS type that comma because I fecking earned that shit!

Something funny... even +1000 your Quit and your mind keeps evolving into this new you. It's amazing and it further shows me just how much I was owned by nicotine.

So, right around 1,000, I thought I'd revisit the whole idea of being involved here. Not log on daily... post roll occasionally... fade out a bit and... enjoy being Quit. I earned it right? 1,000 days and 100% roll gave me the right to decide I could relax a bit, right? Well... sure. I'm a big boy. I can do what I want.

But...

Left to my own devices, for 25 years I stuffed my face full of tobacco all day long, every day. To the tune of 2 cans a day the last 10 years or so.

My track record is shit.

So... who the hell cares if I end up posting roll the rest of my life? Do I need it?... No. Not really, but that 15-20 seconds it takes to do it, is an easy, and stark, reminder of how deep I was trapped. Never again, man. I thought it was a burden for awhile but now... I see it for what it is... freedom. Every day I post roll is another day I crush my addiction. This place doesn't make me "still think about chew". No. Hell no. I owned that I was Quit from day 1. At this point... I almost never think about a dip. Days/weeks go by. No joke. This place is such a part of life now and that's ok. It helped me to find freedom. It works. Why the hell would I fuck that up by fading off?

Again... my track record is shit.

1,400 days vs 25 years... my Quit isn't close to even. So... I'll stay.

And post roll.
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

Just one and you will be back where you started.
And where you started was desperately wishing
you were where you are right now.
