Smoking is (not?) Crescent Fresh: My Plan

My Plan

So every serious quit attempt needs a good plan. Here's mine:

Week 1

Eliminate all smoking before noon. This shouldn't be hard as I rarely smoke before noon anyway, save for the weekends. That'll be the real kicker.

Week 2

Eliminate all smoking before 5pm. Once again, this won't be that tough.

Week 3

Experiment with having a beer and not smoking in the evening. Then try two beers. Maybe 3 or 4 on Thursday. Let loose on the weekend though.

Week 4

Cut down to 2 smokes a day. Tops. Not including drinking.

Week 5

Go for gold. Get through a night of drinking with only 5 cigarettes. Try again the next day but without smoking at all.

Week 6

Laugh at yourself for ever thinking you could eliminate smoking while drinking. Discontinue all smoking except when drinking or for the occasional leafy green episode.

Week 7

Inevitably go on some roadtrip and throw all notions of quitting to the wind and remind your lungs just how soothing nicotine really can be.

The St0nes and I easily do two and a half packs together on a real bender.

Though we also managed to drink 18 or so beers a piece on our last rail out, so maybe I should have a Drinking is Sooo (not) Crescent Fresh blog as well.

I think you could've come up with something a little more clever than that, sweetheart.

Please.

You're talking to a guy who makes bodhisattvas rethink buddhism here.

Yeah actually to be totally honest... I gave up half way through. It takes a lot to make me give up. *smirk*
