It's Easy to Quit Smoking...
For the past 54 days I gave up smoking and I put some coins into my piggy bank (giraffe, actually) every day as a reward for my efforts. I meant to spend the savings on some nice, healthy stuff.
I've just opened the bank (it's got a practical little rubber plug up its arse). The coins fell rushing down on the kitchen table. I'm popping down to 7-11 to buy a packet of fags.

That sounds like something I would do. Only, I would put away money for every day I didn't buy computer stuff.

Hi Dora just checking in to let you know I'm still alive and to say well done on kicking the evil weed. I used to smoke 2 packs a day till I gave up about 10 years ago...it's well worth it my friend and not just for the cash.

It's the coffin they carry you off in":)
....just a cheery thought to strengthen your resolve.

just for the record: I did NOT pop down to 7-11 in the end. It wasn't my enormous will power that stopped me, it was laziness... Good thing is, another day passed without smoking.

Phew, it's a tough habit to break. So what did you actually buy then?

Yeah for you! I've never smoked but I can imagine how hard it is to quit, so kudos to you for quitting! Please keep it up. :)

Egan: I'm getting paid tomorrow so I'm spending the money on very basic stuff :) Bread, milk etc :)) Terrible with arriving at the end of the month with spare money...
