I have redundancy down to an art. There are backups to my backup's backup. I'm never anywhere without at least 2 mods and 2 tanks and a spare bottle of e-liquid. I say "at least." Oftentimes, I carry three... I've become a real fan of my squonker, so I carry that, one tube mech, and one iStick. I have a 2 bay charger in my shop, and a 4 bay charger at home, and I carry a couple batteries, too. I ran out of juice once very early on and I had a battery die once very early on. When that happened, I had a cigarette and it was foul foul foul foul nasty awful gross. Never want to repeat that experience... I did get a craving about 2 weeks ago. When I was acting as a river guide, I refused to bring my mods on the raft, and one of the other guys lit up a cigarette when we got out of the water... smelled terrible, but I wanted one anyways. I did not have one, but... It proves I ain't wholly out of the woods yet.
...even on weekends!!...after about 2 year, she started slacking off (persistent creatures!)..and she no longer does that...I refused to get up to feed her at those times anyway 
(tough love ) ...they get it in their head when breakfast is...and THATS THAT.
..hear ya there, Shawn...and perhaps none of us ever ARE totally out of the woods....I keep a pack ( gettin to be a really OLD and gnarly pack!) of pipe tobacco in my glove box for just such "emergencies" ...I have a hand to mouth addiction that equals my nic fix and have found this "back up" plan..and I only need a little pinch in the cheek.. has saved me more than once from totally goin ape **** cold turkey when I'm without my gear.
..here's a tree 
Hopefully in a couple more days my throat will be all better and I will finally be over this junk.
) ...or there's a Blue Light Special goin on at Walmart...heeheehee ..the Charlie Brown teacher swat team helicopter..... that should be a SNL skit!!
6/23 - 4: The same thing happened this afternoon while I was talking to the neighbors. We waved at them like "here we are" It must have been a person on foot as the helicopter moved out of its original circle and finally started moving to another direction.6/23 #5
I got home from errands this afternoon to find a police helicopter circling a couple blocks down from me. They were trying to say something over their loudspeaker, but no on can make it out over the sound of the engine. For all I know they were just playing a recording of the teacher from Charlie Brown--did as much good. And, after a few minutes, it flew away.
I wear ear plugs to muffle her meowing and have tried tough love with her, but she licks me nonstop, puts her paw in my face and/or sits on my head! If I hide under the covers, she claws at me through the covers.....cats are creatures of habit! I used to get up at 2dark30 a.m for one job...and even after I no longer worked those hours, my cat..one in particular ..would still DEMAND that I get up and FEED her at 230 a.m.
