how do keep track of our 50$ purchases, with our ecf user name?
I had heard about ecigs here and there for the last few years but never really investigated them. Then about a month ago ran into an article on one of the tech blogs I regularly read, E-Lites electronic cigarette review: no one ever said healthy was delicious -- Engadget , and it got me thinking, quit smoking AND get to buy new gadgets...I can totally do this! 
Didn't realize it would take a masters degree to figure it out

No, seriously. Vaping has eliminated my dependence on analogs completely and in an unbelievably short amount of time. I made it through my first challenging situation as a non-smoker and came out shiny on the other side.

So here's my entry #2
Lets take a trip back one week ago this morning...
(que hazy fog and black and white flashback)I had been analog free for 9 days, first time in 17 years I'd gone longer than a few days without a smoke. I was feeling pretty good, proud of myself, generally over the worst part of quitting. So of course it was time for a speed bump in the otherwise smooth road to healthy vaping.
Dum Dum Duuuummmm(that was the soundtrack sounding threatening)The work trip![]()
(begin the montage, pick your own power ballad)Day 1: 7 hours in a rented Uhaul van with a coworker who still smokes, has a special ability to get under my skin, and snores loud in our shared hotel room
Days 2, 3, and 4: 12 to 14 hour days spent largely in crawl spaces and attics. Followed by more snoring...
Day 5: 6 hours work THEN 7 hour drive back home...
(end montage playing "Eye of the Tiger" with strong willed Lax vaping his way thru the whole damn week)
And the moral to this story... I watch to many moviesNo, seriously. Vaping has eliminated my dependence on analogs completely and in an unbelievably short amount of time. I made it through my first challenging situation as a non-smoker and came out shiny on the other side.
Here's my travel kit.
