Spent half an hour typing my latest blog entry, and when I went to post I got the "Server is too busy" message and lost it all!!!
ARRRRGGGGG!!!!!!!
Not going to do it all over so here is the long and short of it.
1-vaping, it's a habit. Better than smoking, but still a habit. Don't fool yourself
2-Nicotine....it's addictive, should we stop using it? Is it really that bad or is it a stigma ingrained by the anti-smoking crowd?
3-Flip flopping.....its what I'm doing, why? Am I going through some type of withdrawal? Am I insecure? Will I wet the bed? Who knows
4-Got some 0mg nic juice....use it when chain vaping
5-Patience...... there's a reason why they call it a virtue. Use it more often
6-my new pass-thru.......been using it

Hey, kinda liking this new format, what do you think? Sounds like a "next on Larry King Live" commercial.
Finally I will share the one truly positive thing that happened today. You know it's good when all of a sudden you realize you did (or didn't) do something.
It dawned on me just a bit earlier that I went all day without thinking once about having a cigarette. Not once, at least I don't recall doing so. I'll take that as a did not do it.
Its not like I'm fighting a demon hanging over me every minute of the day as I might if I was doing all this cold turkey (where did that term come from?).
It's more like the thought will cross my mind occasionally. I'm realizing now that vaping has not been a complete replacement for smoking, meaning that there is still effort on my part that has to be applied.
I've been having those occasional thoughts because feeling the smoke in my lungs was more fulfilling to the habit's need. It's something the vaping emulates, but cannot totally replace.
Refer back to #5 above. Till next time.
