I can tell how good I am feeling on a particular day by the amount of cigarettes that I smoke before noon, which is gross anyway. I was down to 1 to 3 a day before my wife and I got separated. One thing about this whole situation is that I will never spell separate wrong again. So, anyway, this morning when I was getting ready for work I saw Wellbutrin, Zoloft and a box of Nicotine patches in my medicine cabinet. None of them have been opened because I am trying to do this on my own, but I have been thinking about quitting smoking.
If I could take a pill and never want to smoke again, would I take it? I don't know. It's kind of like Madison in Splash. Would I want to give up being a mermaid forever to be with Tom Hanks? No. Or how about when Superman gave up his powers to be with Lois Lane in the movie. He then gets his ass handed to him in a bar fight. All of a sudden, he is not such a big fan of not having superpowers. He goes back, so in this example, figuratively starts smoking again. This actually is a recurring theme in many myths and stories. I guess smoking isn't a talent or superpower, though. An argument to that would be Michael Madsen, who makes smoking look so good...
I was playing my guitar last night with my screendoor open and my neighbor introduced himself and commented on my Hammer-Ons. So awesome.
