Drinking and Smoking - How to Quit While Getting Filthy Drunk
I alone hold the secret to quitting smoking: continue all your other bad habits with increasing regularity. I decided to do a nice solo renegade run last night, stumbling all over Northwest Portland, going from bar to bar to bar without smoking a single cigarette.
The only time I really wanted to smoke was when I was in this nonsmoking restaurant/bar, but that was mostly due to the obnoxious trustfund kid sitting next to me endlessly babbling on about what it takes to be successful in business.
I’ve been coughing black shit out of my lungs lately. I was stumbling towards Cheers Northwest, I nearly puked on my way from coughing so damn hard. Once I got there, I entered it’s wonderful diviness, hung out with the a great selection of video poker junkies, tweakers, old men, and hipsters. I downed another makey make.
With every drink my resolve not to smoke was stronger. Usually, drinking lets down your inhibitions, but in this case, it only made me strive to do better.
