Smoking

[Wossi]

Yesterday afternoon I realised that I only had 1 cigarette left in my packet. I thought about walking to the shops and picking some more up but instead said to myself "why bother, let's see how long I last before neededing a smoke."

Fast forward to 10pm and I'm distracted, can't concentrate on anything and give in and smoke the last ciggy. Feel light headed and my heart races. Screw it, I think, no more.

So for the first time in 14 years of smoking I've gone over 12 hours without wanting a cigarette. Sure, I could easily give in and ask someone at work for 1, but with the new house coming up in June I'm going to need all the money I can so figured now is a good time to quit. I'm thinking of buying some grapes at lunch and everytime I feel I want to smoke I'll eat some grapes instead. Should distract me long enough, plus it's better than eating biscuits or crisps.

So wish me luck
