It has a lot to do with your personality. The physical addiction of smoking actually passes really quickly. After that it's all in your head.

i smoked a carton+ last week, wayyy up from my usual 1-2 pack a week habit. shit's expensive! but i've barely been smoking a year and a half, so it's probably not a true habit. i was a bitch the first day but that's because everyone sucks and they deserve to be aware.

but i totally know what you're talking about. there are like, triggers. like i'd always smoke after a meal, smoke walking to my first class, smoke when i was hanging out with friends. now it's weird when they go to reach for a cigarette, i can feel the habit/urge to reach for one. but a big part of quitting was wanting to like, be more self aware. so i try to be really conscious of everything i'm feeling.

for me it has always been a social habit, but lately, i started smoking on my own more and more....


NOT IN MY HOUSE

plus i wanted to not bother my gf with my smoking since she's quit as well... i saw that as a nice motivation and a chance to really make a difference for myself

also i want more gear money

UHHH, I tried to quit once.

...he types as he chain smokes....

I wish speed was still legal and cheap so I could use it to study for boring exams.

Had planned on leaving work at noon today, now I'm having to stay until four just to cover a one hour lunch. I shouldn't bitch because the OT will make for a good check next week but I'd rather be home playing with the puppy or fuzzing out the AC30.

Anybody know anything about swf compression? I have spent all day trying to get these files down to a required size.

I have two files that I need to get under 40k. One is 43k and the other is 46k.

Who the hell came up with 40k as the standard for ad banner size? When was that, like pre-56k modems?

I get so frustrated trying to sell stuff.

Anything bigger than a pedal is extra frustrating too.
I kinda wanna sell my toob head, but I REALLY don't wanna pack it up or ship it or worry about things breaking along the way...can't sell it on Craigslist without getting lowballed or offered pictures of feet in trade, and selling it to a store would be a stupid loss.

Dude, I had the same feelings. Then, I just shipped a tube head. Made sure the tubes were separate from the head, in another box, and took it to the UPS store and said "HERE, FUCKIN' DO IT" and insured the shit out of it.

I've been trying to sell several basses and jank, and nothing will freakin' move.
It is compounded by my fear/distaste for shipping guitars.

I really do want your Fuck, Fooman, I am going to be a littlk=e low after rent this week, but I just have to decide what pedals I am ok with flipping in order to get it 8 / maybe my 3knob singing tree and my and aardvarks.

When I quit smoking, I stopped drinking coffee at the same time.
I was up to about half a pack a day, but had smoked a whole pack the day before. I was also at about 2 cups a day for coffee.
Oh god the withdrawals. I could barely move from the pain at one point, and ended up being hospitalized due to my intense tunnel vision and migraines at work.
That probably 6 months. Haven't smoked since, and I don't drink coffee ever.
God. I still miss cigarettes. Half my band smokes too, so it was pretty tough for about 2 weeks. After that it was fine.
I have a really addictive personality.

still hauling stuff to the dump. today i had to clear off old trash cans with 2-3 year old stuff in them. it was the most horrid material i've ever had to handle in my life. but it's gone now, along with a whole load of plastic recycling. i lost a day of work yesterday because my back was fucked up--my sciatic nerve has problems--but i think i'm still OK for getting out by Sunday the 16th.

i've really been stressed about it today, which happens every few days...i have to reel myself in from near-panic mode. i am going to be SO grateful when this is over, even though i'm still heartbroken about the failure of my life here and it hurts to let the cute little house and the beautiful setting by the creek in the redwoods behind. every day i have to stop at some point in my work because it makes me so sad i'll start crying if i don't get away from our old stuff and back into the house, which is almost all my stuff now.

this is one of the hardest things i've ever done. the physical labor combined with the emotional stuff makes it almost unbearable at times. i basically have to dissociate to get through it.

Won't have my car for as much as another week. It's gonna be a clusterfuck getting to and from school/work
