Over, Said & Done

On the 16 th of this month I happened to have been at father-in-law's house. I had laundry to do and also took in a few wheelbarrow loads of firewood to the porch. As life and happenstance often do, a curve ball came whizzing by. I had left my vaping gear up here at the house.

Asked him to bum one of his cowboy killers. I stepped outside after getting it lit. It was a crisp and cool morning. Still, figured I'd like being outside with a smoke instead of indoors. I got a terrifying shock in a way. No more than two drags into the cigarette and I had to stop.

It tasted like pure manure to me. I could feel my body heaving against the thing as well. My hand physically withdrew with the cigarette. I snuffed it out carefully & took it back in and passed it back to her dad. I can no longer smoke cigarettes. My body refuses to let me.

This is terrifying in the same sense of nerve damage causing me to punch myself. "Oh wow, I'm not in full on control of my body, great joy."" On the other hand, I'm glad my body is compelled to avoid cigarettes. As a bit of a treat, let myself ask her bro-in-law to help me mix something up.

He has a recipe using some RY flavor. I like that flavor but it seems to linger too much for my wife. I tweaked his recipe a bit, adding 3% menthol. As an added bonus I got to see him choke and gag. He suggested trying it at .5% menthol instead. I told him I was fine with the 3%, and I am. I may agree later on if I have this mixed again, to drop to 1% though. It does seem to overpower the rest of the flavoring.

If naught else, may add a bit here and there to other flavors.

Interesting story, Morley.

vaping dropped me from 2PAD down to about 6 cigs a day in a week and I continued to smoke one with coffee in the morning and one after a meal. One day I decided to vape and smoke after supper just to compare the two side by side. Doing that made me realize just how bad a cigarette tastes next to RY4 juice. I decide then to finish the several cigs left in the pack and not buy another. It's been almost 6 years and I haven't touched one since (or even been tempted). They stink!
