It's been a month since I stopped smoking.  Although I still crave it, I feel good that I'm being strong.  I feel like I have more energy and can think more clearly now - moreso than I can remember.  I can run for longer distances and I don't cough anymore.  All that's great.

But I get the shakes, feel like crap sometimes and really really want to smoke!  Sometimes it drives me crazy!  Thank goodness for all the support my friends have given me.  I don't think I could do it without your help!  Just knowing that there are people out there who care about me and who are there for me makes me feel stronger.  I owe it to myself and to my friends and family to beat this once and for all.

I sort of feel like if I can beat this... and truly "quit"... there is nothing that can stand in my way.  Not even Robuttnik.

Oh, and btw... I stopped smoking on my first date with Breaker... we're having a great time together!  Yay!
