Hello friends, wanted to let you all know that I managed to write me a three page short story trying out my new typewriter, and it seemed a waste to just type cuss words in it without any sort of agenda.
Anyways, I already forgot what it was about, but I did put the typewriter in it.

Holla, then.

Tracking my moods these last few days, I’ve been tracking the fifty kinds of bad I’ve felt. I don’t know if cataloging the times and places I want to smoke is really all that therapeutic. A little self talk to the tune of “dude, you seriously suck at most things you do. The least you can manage is to quit that expensive, health-harming habit” tends to be more useful.
Although the one thing about nicotine replacement therapy, if you wear a patch 24 hours – which I do, I’m having horrific nightmares, like the one where my parent’s house from 12 years ago is, during the summer, turned into a dorm for military school students, and my dad bitches at me when I eat some Cheerios. Or that other one when my girlfriend was traded out with an entirely different woman (one I’ve never met) and I was the only one who noticed.
At least I got my Logitech MX Revolution back – I found the receiver inside a PC I sold a week earlier, then I had to have my mom give me back the rest of the mouse from her garage. Then, I had to order a magic-special-eight-volt adapter from Logitech and wait a week. But damn, I missed the scroll wheel.
College started today, and I can smell a cigarette being smoked a mile away. Hey, wait, when was I able to smell?

This patch is not made of real sugar.
Regardless of what I’m doing, I feel like I ought to be smoking while I’m doing it. Hopefully this will pass before I snap off a finger off and try to light it.

Okay, so I’m not having the best day. Besides having zero focus, I’m fighting intense urges to run amok (a term I think is from Thailand or Malaysia, I believe). I didn’t trust myself to eat until after 4 PM.
In the “things that aren’t shaking out quite how I thought they were,” my guts aren’t agreeing with the fantastic sandwich I made or the entire pot of processed cheese dinner product. Also, I wasn’t expecting to be all jittery and energetic.
The patch itself is weird. I understand that lighting leaves on fire and huffing on the fumes isn’t exactly natural, mind you, but I haven’t had a single drug prescribed to me since Bill Clinton’s first term. Initially, it was uncomfortable and I had a slight burning sensation.
I guess that says something about nicotine itself, how its more poison than not.

So, tomorrow, I’m stopping smoking.
Today, I went over to target, bought a first week of nicotine patches (no point in buying too many at once) and a hundred pack of nicotine gum.
this is a picture of a patch and how it works
I plan on quitting smoking as of when i wake up, this morning: Monday, August 24.
Hopefully, this won’t be nearly as bad as I remember nicotine withdrawl – I’ve been a smoker since 1996, and i’ve only been off the butts for six months. I guess thats why I doubled up on the nicotine replacement theraphies:
I smoke around 25-30 Marlboro Reds @ .8mg/cigarette.
That’s around 20 to 24 mg of nicotine per day for me. That means that between my nicotine patch, i have a whole 2 doses of nicotine gum *just in case*
I guess nicotine therapy addiction is better than smoking, at least according to our friends in congress and Auto Tune The News.
