one night down
i had my final cigarette on sunday evening. allen carr said to savor the filth so you can remember how awful it tasted, because later on, the little monster (nicotine) will try to make the big monster (brainwashing) forget, over time, how terrible the drug is.
it sounds like a bunch of cult-talk, but it's working so far.
i found a comment on metafilter where a woman mentioned that she carried colored pencils and a sketchbook; so i tried that last night, but my expensive prismacolors kept breaking, so now i have to put together a whole art kit to carry about.
