Want to stop smoking

[cute fuzzy bunny]

Funniest thing is, my wife does respiratory therapy and cares for lots of people near the end of their lives, mostly from smoking.

Yet, many of the respiratory specialists, nurses and even some of the doctors where she works smoke.

So even the results staring you in the face every day are no deterrent.

Yep. Nicotine use creates a powerful drug addiction, one even the most basic need for survival often cannot defeat. I have great respect for those who find a way to totally stop smoking.

Yeah, HFWR, just go up to any (well almost any) woman and kiss her. Then you can say, "am I fresh or what?

Prolly a good way to lose a coupla teef...

I don't know if I could have done it if I were a guy. I wanted to get pregnant and didn't want our baby to be "smoking in the womb", so to speak. So maternal instinct/hormones helped me out.

Said baby for whom I suffered the agonizing pangs of withdrawal from a heavy nicotine addiction, is the same one who at age 29 still speaks to me as though I was an idiot sometimes (but I love her anyway, go figure).
