3 Months After “Quitting” Smoking
The longer I go without having a cigarette, the more I loathe the term “quit” and wish I didn’t buy “kylequits.com”. One would think that I should be super excited that I haven’t smoked a cigarette, which I am. However, I can’t deal with terms like “quit”. Really, I like the idea that I am putting off smoking. I don’t even want cigarettes anymore unless I go out drinking anyway.
Also, I did not quit ingesting nicotine. Although I hadn’t had a single dose since Mid october, I did smoke some cigars on New Years. Nevertheless, I am quite proud of the fact that I have not inhaled a cigarette in 3 months and I can feel my lung capacity improving and taste foods better.
At one point I wrote about 1 month after quitting smoking, and I’m feeling like a fucking champion now. Yeehaw!

I feel pretty good about 43 days, but I eagerly await the day when I stop feeling like bitch-slapping everyone who comes within my 3 feet of personal space. It IS getting better, but my skin is still crawling and all the little hairs are still on end. Maybe this is the price of cold turkey after five days of nicotine patches … Brad
