Life: seeing as yesterday was World No Tobacco Day, it’s worth noting that I gave up smoking last Thursday.
This is the first time I’ve taken the
step of quitting with any seriousness. I’ve been smoking since I was 18
or 19, without any real attempts to quit before now. It was a gradual
process, but imagining a smoker’s future, with the diseases and reduced
life expectancy it involves, makes it quite sensible in the end. So far,
it’s going pretty well — lots of occasional pangs, but nothing I can’t
say no to… especially with the aid of Liquorice Altoids. wish me luck!
