They wont.  Just put your desire to smoke with all the other things you can't do, like ride your motorcycle through town on route 3 at 140 MPH.

There in lies the rub...

If I did that it would only be once...maybe twice. ;D

If I light another cigarette I'll do it till I die.

While I appreciate them, I'm not posting these little tidbits looking for encouragement or kudos. They're just my observations.

That's why you'll probably be able to quit

BTW, what does T say about all this?

She thinks it's great. She's been impressed by how little trouble I've had with the process and has been really supportive. There were a couple of days around the 2 week mark when I was more of an asshole than usual, but it was associated with long car rides, so she's let me off the hook on doing that for a while.

I'm hoping she gets to the point where she believes she can do it too.

Sweet.

Are the cost savings noticeable yet?

hard to say.

I need to get in the habit of putting the money elsewhere.

Indeed.

I'll invest it for you.

You won't get any financial return, but the good feeling knowing you're helping:

- Close the hole in the o-zone layer by burning fuel through a KTM and Ducati

- Return tires back to the earth (where they came from originally.)  Just in tiny pieces localized at racetracks and certain roads the public uses.

Do your part to help the earth. 

Act now before it's too late ;D
