It's 10:30 on a sunday night.... I don't care - I have batteries now! Post #3!!
I was in a store yesterday and when I took out my wallet it smelled like an old ashtray. I have literally never smelled cigarette smoke on myself until yesterday. It was revolting. I can't believe I went around smelling like that for 16 years. I was literally embarrassed. Needless to say I need to buy a new wallet.
Currently sh***ing bricks due to major constipation, due to what i've found out to be the lack of nicotine in my body (I vape 18mg and 24mg with an LR atty on an ego, seem to be not working for me). Not a good thing because its really painful, but i guess a great sign that i'm getting off of the nicotine addiction
Oh so that's what it is lol. I've been "going" more often lately and I've been trying to figure out if I ate something funky.
I've also noticed I've been sweating alot more the past couple days, even in air conditioning. I'm also vaping 18-20mg and I'm debating whether or not to bump it up or just let it ride.
Due to my increased airflow I'm feeling like an 18 year old again during "snuggle" sessions and I've only been vaping for about a week. I almost can't walk today because my knees are so sore, neither can my gf
I just received my PV and goodies yesterday, so I'm basically at the front end of this quitting thing.
BUT-this thread is exactly the kind of thing I need to see!
I have had MANY of the things in this thread happen to me.
I can't smoke in my house, so not having to smoke outdoors in 102 degree heat is NICE.
Today, I'm getting more kisses from the wifey because "the STINK" is gone--she usually complains that even after a good toothbrushing and mouthwash she could still smell smoke from my lungs. Yeah, it was that bad.
Whoever mentioned panicking when tossing a .... out the car window only to have it get sucked back in the rear window, I feel ya! No burns in the front seats, had plenty in the back
I don't think this one has been mentioned yet: Stepping out to smoke is at least a 5 minute commitment (unless you want to waste half a smoke), 10 minutes at least if you're at work. Still, I don't always want a whole cigarette. Now, I can just have a couple puffs, and just put it down. FREEDOM!
Oh yeah, when it's 8:00pm, you already have a buzz, and realize "Oh God I only have 2 smokes left, and I can't leave!"
One more on smoking at work-I am the ONLY person in the office that smokes. I used to go pretty far to get out of view, hotbox a smoke (all the while holding it at arm's length to keep the smoke offa me, which sounds like it didn't work, so I was just looking like a .........). Only to come in, throw the .... in the trash (no ashtrays outside), wash hands, wipe face and mouthwash. What a hassle!
Burned fingers cause the analog got stuck to my lip: check
Torn skin off of lips from same situation: check
Smoke slap in the eye: check
Ash in the eye: triple check (almost had a wreck like that once)
I just hope I can hold up when out for drinks with friends. That's gonna be tough.
Thanks to all!

here's another one. Making all kinds of new friends because they wonder what your sticking in your mouth that lights up blue.. and all of your current friends wanting to take up vaping because they want to quit cigs as well.
btw Pyro. I spend a lot of time in bars. My best friend/housemate runs karaoke. Plus I bartend two days a week. Have had absolutely no prob at all with drinking and vaping. still haven't wanted an analog 2 nights out at the bar down... if it works for you like it did me you'll be fine
I was riding in a buddy's car this afternoon him smoking in the car was burning my eyes and it smelt horrid ... I used to always smoke with him in the car, I was really surprised by how much it bothered me
Thanks man--I enjoy my time out and socializing, and even though most bars around here have banned smoking indoors, was wondering how my resolve would hold up.
I used to bartend as well...hard to imagine NOT smoking in that job! Congrats to you sticking with it
Seriously, appreciate the encouragement!
Going to church/confession and knowing I'm not offending anyone, especially my priest!
Having someone get into my truck and say "wow, your truck smells good"
My hair is softer and behaves MUCH better
Going to the baseball game and not having to worry about where a smoking area may be
Can't wait to go to a hockey game and actually watch the happenings between periods
Going through an airport and not having to find an exit to smoke, only to have to go through security check again to catch my connector....not having to give up a lighter and find someone outside with matches/lighter before I have to go back in for my connecting flight
Racing my dog up the stairs without exploding at the top

**not having to worry about putting out a ciggie when i am at the fillin station gettin my truck gassed up.
**not having to worry about dumping that smelly .... bucket that was in my truck
**not having to worry about smelling like smoke when everyone hugs each other at cowboy church

Ms. Heather who actually lives in VA now, she got me to "run" almost all of the way to the store .. in the winter time .. I'll never forget smoking a cigarette after that. My lungs were already sore from the cold and heavy breathing. It hurt SO MUCH.

I thought it was the three boxes of cheezits I ate
LoL over here
Won't be a problem if you drink more water
Vaping dries you out a little.. just take more water
I can't wait to show my lady friends the new me... I mean I CAN'T WAIT
Did I say I CAN'T ....ING WAIT..
The "poor things" are going to be absolutely just ravished. Multiple times. Every day. And then some. And some more.
And I'm already the best lover several of my lady friends have ever had.. I'm just unstoppable now. I won't fall over dead when I'm done with them/they're done with me every time!!
Vaping is incredible... I've always been good at controlling my .. timing .. I've learned just in the past year how to control my breathing ... now I'm going to have more energy, more oxygen
They better look out I'm tellin' ya
I was SO MAD at the Memphis airport when they didn't have any free smoking areas. GRRRRR. I was already in so I had to go out and re-enter through the security checkpoints again. On principle. Guess I didn't HAVE to. But I had to. And it was raining.
I don't drink enough liquids anymore, I used to have a drink, coffee or tea and a smoke, no smoke - no drink.
Maybe I will sleep better with less caffine.
