Thanks for the words of encouragement guys. For the record, we Marines are some sexy beasts.
I noticed some tobacco glorification (in the words of Doc Chewfree) this morning on KTC. I am done with tobacco in all its forms. The stuff stinks, it doesn't do anyone any good, and the price is skyrocketing. The only method I may miss is hookah. That was the only method of tobacco use that was more social than addiction behavior for me. You know what though, phuk hookah too. It is just a gateway back to where I was 67 days ago. I have no desire to go back there. I have too much to live for, too many people counting on me, and have too much invested to ever turn back. I have no problem looking at a future never using tobacco again. It was taking my money, my energy, my youth, and slowly taking my life. I always prided myself on my teeth. I have some damned good teeth. When I started having dental pain and a receding gum line, that was the final straw for me. Phuk tobacco, Phuck nicotine, and Phuck the can most of all.
