Brian you are badass. I quit with you proudly.
Congrats on your 1 year
Amen to that. Great year B! Thanks for your support
Congratulations on the year of freedom! Many more to you my friend.
To my dear friend Brian,

Congratulations on 365 man I remember when you showed up in the dojo defeated and ashamed, but look at you now! You have become an excellent leader and a shining example of how to overcome a cave. I'm proud of you man and I'm honored like always to quit with you!
Congrats on the year and bringing up something I hadn't thought of yet. At my dads I had always smoked a cigar with him and the older guys in his neighborhood. I'd better give him a call to let him know I'm quit so he doesn't bring a cigar to Fathers Day next weekend for me. Seriously this could have wrecked me too. I don't do well with surprises like that.

Quit with you today Brian.
All I can say is you've just given the KTC community a shining example of a stellar recovery from a horrific fall. Proud to be quit with you, Brian!

Since when do we get 2 intros? Bunch of this going around lately.
It's another forum to say what's happening. Definitely not a pleasure or goal mine.
I agree. This should be merged with your old intro thread. (I made it easy to find for the Mods)

Thanks Marine.
AJ- yes, my group is aware and I've been ripped. But also supported.
The process started early in the day. I was in the wedding party and we were getting ready a few hours before. We starting pounding beers and one of the guys busted out a box of cigars for later in the evening. It stuck in my head and the Nic Bitch began her work. I kept myself busy being caught up in the wedding activities and drinking. By the time the box of cigars came out I had made up my mind that I would have one and would hide it from my group, never to admit it. My wife tried to stop me but I was too stubborn.
I didn't have my plan in place.
I posted roll every day but became complaisant in my Quit, took it for granted that all was well. I let my defenses down and failed.
Did you post roll on the day you caved and had the cigar?
Last post was June 8th. It is likely that is when the nic bitch first had his ear and not 'over the weekend" at the wedding... Nonetheless, this is probably about he weakest story I have ever heard if that is possible... I've got a long way to go before 1750 days. I quit tobacco only 637 days ago but I ain't going back because I can't live that life again! None of us here can!
I used to say that when I was at 637.

You are an addict just like me.
And somewhere along the way, you forgot it. Time to remember again. Or you'll get to do this again later.
Agreed.
That's the point I was making.
You know the deal. No sense drilling that home. Best thing you can do now besides staying quit is to show Sept how it's done.
Thanks Brother, that's the plan.
I cannot think of any suitable words for something like this. Simply terrible all around.
I agree. There are not suitable words.
