I don't know if you've quit smoking or cut back or anything, but if you have it is possible that you are getting some hand shake that you don't really realize. I noticed my dexterity was crap when I first switched over. It has come back. I learned quickly to be careful about dropping attys with a cat in the house lol.

no not really -- I've been vaping about the same amount as when I started almost three weeks ago -- six weeks if you count lighter-vaping actual tobacco with the vaporstar thingie

I have to have a LOT of nicotine before my hands start shaking, but I have noticed that it doesn't take anywhere NEAR as much coffee to make me feel cranked/amped in the morning thanks to the ecig hehe... so maybe that's part of it

squirrels aren't supposed to drop their nuts though haha -- I think it might just be because it feels like it's already threading in but it hasn't yet so when I let go for a second to turn it it falls out

Sounds like you're just excited and rushing. It's pretty new to me, and I get a little caught up in the newness of it all. Also, my withdrawal symptoms kind of gave me some . . . jittery? . . . uneasy? . . . awkwardness, that I normally didn't have. It's still there a little bit, but not so much now. I've had the same feeling when I've tried quitting cold turkey before too. IDK, just supposing.

yeah you're probably right -- it IS really exciting having all these different flavors and carts and cartomizers and gadgets

plus not having to feel guilty if I just sit there and vape up a storm -- I was constantly having to tell myself no with cigarettes because you can just tell how much damage they're doing if you smoke more than you're used to -- something that doesn't happen with ecigs

Well, you can still get quite the nic rush too. I tried some 36mg drips, and . . . well, I wasn't exactly Mr. Nimble after that! LOL
 
Ha! Yeah, us southern tier peeps must be a clumsy bunch (that was a cute response,btw), because I have dropped mine several times!! I think it's because it's a bit heavier than a cig and I'm not used to the weight balance or something like that.

Going through cig withdrawals + the occassional nic od while finding your nic level is not fun! I've never tried any level over 24mg so I can only imagine what 36mg would be like.

I just used my standard 3 drips, but those particular 3 drips seemed like an eternity. Just mixed some 24 to come out of my 18 "safety zone" because I feel I'm vaping too much there and thought 24 might satisfy better. Let me just say that there is a mile of difference between 18 and 24 too. :laugh: I'm out of pg, so I'll have to wait to knock that batch down a little. It's already too thick with vg right now. It's a fun process, but I can't wait to find my sweet spot.

haha howdy neighbor :D you got your snow shovel ready?

another cool thing about ecigs -- snowflakes landing on them doesn't make a giant wet spot on your cigarette

Funny you should mention snow shovel. I just might be able to shovel the driveway this year without running out of breath and passing out...LOL.
