Day 718 and I woke with a vague feeling of total defeat. Then I realized it was all a bad dream. WTF?!!! Almost 2 years later and that nasty bitch is still lurking around.

I suspect it was triggered by Dove season...getting my stuff ready for September 1. Or maybe it was college football? Those were two of my toughest times. Whatever it was, it underscored one thing...NEVER LET YOUR GUARD DOWN. That bitch is still lurking out there.

So if I'm reading correctly, it looks like groups are looking for one place to post role, and another to "chat"... that about right?
If only there was a link that you could click on to "Live Chat".

Sounds good to me it seems that if you try to chat in roll call it gets lost. Or last roll can get lost in a big brew haw and have bumps. But wtf do I know I'm still finding my site legs.

June Platoon.  I converted to the church of soberness yesterday.

I really am glad I found this place.  This has helped me realize that I am quitting for good.  Not for show but for good.  This is a good place for the support I need.  I have done a lot of reading...I think I need to type "Fuck, Fucking, Fucker" more to get into the brotherhood.   'crackup'

It's day 2 but I have just barely past my 24hr sober mark.  So I have been really introspective and sad.  Maybe the next 24 hours brings out the "FUCK THIS, FUCK THAT and FUCK ME."  Its actually awesome to have a forum to vent.  I enjoy knowing that I'm not alone even though the quit is an individual moment. 

Keep me laughing, (let lose on your rants and vents) I don't think about the cravings when I laugh.  I'm only laughing at the vents because I get it and can relate. 

Anyway, I have enjoyed some HO Fame members but if anyone is like me in the first stage of the journey and wants to carpool.  I'm here.
Hang in there. Embrace the suck over the next 48hrs or so. I am on day 15, fighting this fucker every day and winning every day. I love winning this battle. you can do it. PM me if you need anything or want a number. -ww
So maybe this is what you mean by being foggy. When I am invited to PM (does that stand for, "Phone Me?") I click the fucking little icon enter some statement, like here is my number my real name is....when I click to send it, it says that I don't have an address entered.

Okay so I take the persons stage name and click on it. I don't FUCKING understand how PM works. How do you reply with a PM that goes to the person who invited you to PM.
I just shit my pants trying to understand this.

MT - Awesome man, I am on day 10 today...glad you are here!
It is really the only place where everyone just gets it. They aren't happy for you because you are quitting something that they think is gross. We are happy because we know exactly what you are going through and how much it sucks.

Hit me up with a PM if you need anything, I am down bro...lets keep on the quit today.

I owe my life to this site and the people on it. I was a miserable, lying failure until I found this. By posting roll, I have managed over 500 days of freedom...and counting...

But one thing I have forgotten about (until today) is the $$$ saved calcluator on the KilltheCan.org link. I averaged half a can per day for 20 years...around $3 when I started (I think) and about $5.25 when I quit...figured $5 per can average. And a few days ago, I passed the $1,000.00 saved mark.

Of course I have run up quite a tab on candy, seeds and gum, but that is still a $1,000 kick in the nuts to Big Tobacco. Pretty fucking cool. Multiply that by all of the other bad ass quitters on this site and I'd say we're pretty much fist-fucking Big Tobacco in the face. Really fucking cool!!!
