Alisa, I have been looking at your Avatar now for over a month trying to make out exactly what it is. I put my reading glasses on and looked real close.

It is hilarious. That is my cat. I swear it!

I love it. And I just read the writing on the fence. Ha!!! Never knew what it was before.

Now, aren't you glad I made you put on your reading glasses? It is hilarious!

Okay, where did everybody go? Somebody say something we can talk about. Since I have to behave.

I have this 3/4 of a pint of half and half. I was thinking of making a big pitcher of iced coffee with the coffee, ice, splenda, real vanilla extract, and half and half.

I wonder, since vaping 24mg keeps me up all night anyways, maybe the caffeine in the iced coffee will put me to sleep. It can't keep me awake any more than I already am. HHMMMmmm.

You do know the side effects of xylitol right? Should I buy stock in charmin? :p

XYLITOL: Uses, Side Effects, Interactions and Warnings - WebMD

The first time I did the Atkins diet, I would go buy bulk chocolates that were sweetened with Xylitol...in his book, he mentions what it can do if you eat too much.

Me being a chocolate covered nut fan, I had a few too many (like what I would normally consume in regular chocolate, maybe 10-15 pieces).

OMG.

That and too much magnesium. Wow.

But at least it cleans out the pipes!! :D

Haha...yeah, when I first found it I tried to make it bigger for the forum. I guess if you want a big avatar you have to be a verified member or some such. At the time I joined, I wasn't going to spend any more money since I was spending-crazy at first on vaping stuff.

I do really like it--have thought about changing it a time or two but it's just too cute.

This happens every weekend...the only time I can stay up and hang out (and keep up), and all you old folks go to bed at what, like 8PM????

I doubt it'll work that way. It'll probably keep you up all night, and all day tomorrow, too.

Aren't they all just a bunch of party poopers? I work afternoons during the week and miss out on all the fun, since pretty much everyone but Shari is in bed way before I get home. Then on the weekends I work midnights, so there goes the fun again. Sheesh, you'd think these people actually have a life outside of the forum. ;)

I put myelf on a schedule one every two hours, So far so good, I will cut down from there slowly. I tried SNUS as well. Funky taste after 15 minutes but I think it will help as I space the time further apart.

I'm finding the snus to be helping a lot too...I get the jolt I normally get from a cigarette. Doesn't help the craving at first, but after a while it does. I keep mine in for half an hour at a time. Make sure to get the Swedish Snus though, to avoid the carcinogens in the other stuff...

General Snus - Snus shop - buy snus online

Ha! I just noticed that website is all in euros, LOL! The only reason I posted it is because at the main General site, you have to log in to see anything. Note that I am not suggesting you buy from the link, lol...

You can talk to Alisa and I think Gtrsoloist about that snus stuff, or go back 8 or so pages and read all about it. Not for me. Thank God I don't need that. I am lucky, I don't even need the WTA. Thought I might for about a week, but it worked out without it. I have a teeny bit of WTA if I ever really do think I need it, like 2ml. It is my emergency bottle of juice.

My life is boring outside the forum...I'll admit that!

Unfortunately I have to skip out now too...my long nap extended dinner time and now I need to go get us some food. I'll pop back in, but I'll bet no one will be around...

Yup, you get stuck with me. And I can't sleep so I end up finally passing out about 5 am and then sleep most of the day. I am all backwards.

As long as you can stick to the schedule you can wean your way down slowly and hopefully avoid the cravings. How did the snus work for you?

I'm finding the snus to be helping a lot too...I get the jolt I normally get from a cigarette. Doesn't help the craving at first, but after a while it does. I keep mine in for half an hour at a time. Make sure to get the Swedish Snus though, to avoid the carcinogens in the other stuff...

I'm still laughing about your description of your first snus adventure. :facepalm:

Same here, Shari. I haven't needed any of that stuff, and after Alisa's description, I'm sure glad of it. :shock:

That's because you're 3 hours behind me and Shari timewise. If I'm still up when you get back do I get a prize? :p
