My Pledge to Quit!

[TheWitchDr]

Now I am fully committed to this method of quiting. I love this product especially when DJing in Bars and Clubs. I don't have to go outside in this damn cold.

So, after my last "Real" cigarette I will be counting down (or up however you look at it) to six months smoke free. When I reach the six month mark I will get a V4L logo Tattoo.

Good luck and it is always nice to see another member from Chicago. Go Blackhawks

I just started vaping yesterday and think it's great.

I just need to quit having the urge to go out on the balcony every time I pick up my ecig.

This is so not like quitting I almost feel guilty. On my 9th day without a nasty stinky cigarette and I feel great. Also lovin' the taste of this Dark Chocolate cart, hehe

Truly, easiest Quit ever. You guys are gonna love this!

I love not smelling like smoke all the time and feeling like I have to cover it up. I especially love not having to go out in the cold. I think I will miss going out in the summer and driving with a cig. Its just diff with the ecig. Hopefully since I will have some time before summer it will be easier. LOVE the tat idea! Chi-town rocks! What clubs do you DJ?

LOL Took me about a week to get over that. It'll pass

Best Wishes WitchDr... I look back and think,, "I beat the Devil before the Devil even knew I was playing"

Sorry it takes me a bit to respond to my post on the weekends. That is my work week.

"SaveFarris" I have spun at Zentra, Crobar (once), I'm also at some bars in wrigleyville (always wearing my Sox hat Lol). I'm mostly a "House Music" DJ. Been focusing on making my first record, so I haven't been at any major clubs lately. When my record is out that's when I'm going to hit the clubs again.

And to all the others, thank you for the words of support. I need them right now. My stress is peeking and it seems as if the cigarettes are the only thing to calm me down.

The one thing I'm finding hard with the E-Cig, is. I don't seem to get that "finished" feeling I do when my cigarette is done. Has anyone felt this too?

 

[Mary Kay]

WitchDr...yeah, it's kind of funny when I first started I looked for an ashtray to put out my e-cig! I also had to use my cig case for a while..after 37 years of reaching for it, I couldn't seem to break the habit!

Give it a few days, the old habits will stop and you can feel "done" any time you want! It's amazing to pick up an e-cig and take a vape..then put it back down for later. At first I used to take a drag in bed just to see the pretty light!

The other thing I still find amazing is changing a cart out..finished or not, switching flavors and then switching back. try that with a misty!

have fun at work..inside where it's warm.

I forgot to add..tat? Couldn't you just have some cheesecake and call it a day> Ouch!

 

[maaron]

Hey witch Dr. That is a hell of a plan! One kind of decks/mixer do you use?

 

[gsc4077]

Just started vaping this year. . i love how i can stay warm inside and vape away while i watch my family go outside in the freezing cold lol. I found it amazing after a week of not smoking, how sensitive i became to the smell of smoke. Hopefully will be converting my bro's and sis over to vaping soon.

Thanks "MaryKay" Cheesecake would be good. However, I DO LOVE tattoos. When I achive 6 months I will get it as a badge of accomplishment. It won't be a big one, just a small one on my arm somewhere.

"marron" I still use turntables. I just got a new set up this summer. I have one 1210 MK5, and got a 1210 M5G (with the blues lights) for the same price as the MK5. I also bought a Allen & Heath Xone:02.2 Battle mixer, the sound is amazing on that thing. All this powers my laptop with Traktor Scratch Pro. I also have some midi controllers I use to control the effects. I LOVE being a DJ. Started when I was 12. Do you spin?

yea I used to spin....i ended up selling my stuff for extra cash I had 2 Numark TTX tables a behringer djx700 mixer and a pioneer efx500 for effects. My dream set up was always 2 pioneer cdj 800mk2, a pioneer djm 800 and pioneer efx1000! I wish I didn't have to sell my stuff....I miss it!

I hear you. I lost 2 systems and all my studio gear (ProTools and all) to hard times. You'll have gear again one day. I was and still am not a fan of Pioneer. They charge WAY too much for that stuff. The DJM800 is nice, but for a touch more I can get my Xone 4D. That is my goal for this summer. That and the new QSC K Series powered speakers. The constantly coming into hard times and selling my gear has kept me from getting to the "World Tour" gigs that I have been after.

I want to see a pic of that tat when you get it! I remember a while back a girl on here was talking getting a tat with the same design as the leaford lanyard but I'm not sure if she ever did it.

 

[SaveFerris]

Crobar use to be a fav spot for me. It has changed alot over the years. Would love to hear your stuff when it comes out.
I totally agree with the wanting a finished feeling. That was and still is hard for me. I need closure and the feeling like I smoked and now can move on after I finished my cig. At least this is better for us. It does get easier and its all about changing or learning new habits.

Haha didn't expect to run into this topic on ECF, but I totally agree with you on Pioneers. Its good to be familiar with them though if you do club sets. Also cockroaches will have something to spin on after the world ends because they are built rock solid. Quality gear, just groooooossly overpriced.

I actually kind of skipped cdjs all together. I was a dedicated vinyl head forever, but just picked up a Numark NS7 and its blowing my mind (and saving my back).

QSCs are on my list as well

I've got a friend with a 4d.... super rad. 4 decks is insanity. Awesome insanity.

Hey maybe we should start a "Vaping DJs" subforum

MaryKay, my desk is constantly covered with loose carts...I change all the time. Occasionally I will find a flavor that hits me and I'll vape away but I change flavors a lot. They all are so damned good!
