Three weeks without a cigarette, folks... 
I'm whipping it again. This time for good. I hope.

20. Actually, that's exactly what I've been doing. 
I might also sing, depending on where I am.
Oh my.  The maudlin waif primitive also sings and dances.

24. Way to go! 
I smoked well over 20 years. It took many attempts to break the habit but I finally did.
You feel a sense of accomplishment and feel better EVERY single day that you are smoke free. The feeling never goes away, it just gets stronger every day.
Now if I could just do something about the booze and the women....

25. Booze is no problem... 
Women either. Of course, the wife frowns on that sort of thing, so...
Hmmm.  Very curious.  The maudlin waif primitive doesn't mention dope being a problem.
But no report since then, although one hopes, naturally, the news is good.
