I Quit

It has been 30 days without a tobacco product. I began smoking, stupidly of course, at 18 years of age - who the hell knows why -chicks dig it, you do look very very cool, etc...Anyhow - after ten years of being a slave to this drug, i decided it was time to give it up.
I go out of my way to eat fairly healthily, organically, naturally, vegetarian(ely?) - most of the time - so the smokes never really fit...This last point was ofcourse brought to my attention by my lovely ladyfriend, C...! Anyhow - I bicycle at least 10-15 miles a week, do not drink sodas - still drink plenty of beer and good coffee though - but hey whats a man without any vices, huh?
The quitting process wasnt too bad...I didnt use any nicotene aids - i did utilize a lot of toothpicks.
The urges have pretty much stopped - although - i do miss, sometimes - the actual act of stopping what im doing, heading outside, rolling a smoke and just being outside - now i just go outside...what a concept! - ha!
What am I going to do with all that extra money im saving from not buying cigarettes, you ask? Im sure ill spend it on more bike stuff - camping/backpacking stuff/beer/coffee - you know what everyone else spends their hard earned moneys on.
