You need to move to MN, a cigarette in 25 below will chase the urge away.   :-)

Scade has some small proffs of that. Sadly I have shaved my beard recently to seek better employment.  :bawl:

If you say that because you go outside to smoke.....here's what you do.

Cut off.....uh, .... -25 degree weather .....better make that, break off 2 long pieces of garden hose.....open window slightly....place hoses thru window......insert lite cigarette in one hose and suck on it....place thunb over the end while you blow smoke out the other.

Do matches strike in -25 degree weather?

I smoke a very dark, evil smelling roll-your-own tobacco called white OX. Unfiltered.

But I don't smoke.. I smolder.   :uhsure:

I quit when I became pregnant and never started up again. Before becoming pregnant, I couldn't quit for nothing.

My other half has been telling me he was going to quit for 15 years.

Dec 2007, he promised to quit in January.

He's still smoking.....

I haven't had a smoke since 12/16/08.

I feel pretty good about that.

The last time I quit, I made it about 11 months.

I hope to make it permanent this time.

I found myself gasping for air in my sleep back in November.  I didn't like that feeling.

So I decided to once again make an effort to stop smoking.  I'm doing good so far.

I hope to keep it that way.
