I manged to quit smoking myself, well partly anyway. I don't smoke cigarettes anymore, but I do enjoy the occassional cigar.

My goal is to catch up to jaerdaph, who I know has a substantial lead on me, so I'll just have to extra-not-smoke.

You'll get there - I promise it will be much easier to catch up to me than it will to catch up to Crothian in post count!

Keep up the good work, and congratulations!

Thank you, everybody, for the support, and particularly to jaerdaph, for the inspiration. It's working. Below is a link to the Thank You thread.

It's the caring, supportive people here that makes EN World the special place it truly is. And knowing that my quitting smoking has inspired another person to quit smoking is the best reward to date.

In the bible, Noah builds a boat beacuse it rains for 40 days and 40 nights.

Moses leads the Israelites around in the desert for 40 years.

Everything's all about 40. That's because the ancient Hebrews used the number "forty" idiomatically to mean "a lot."

If the bible had been written by Valley Girls in the 1980's, it would have rained for "DAaaaaYS, dude."

Anyway, it's been about forty days for me, now.

A smoking cessation of BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS!

Excellent! Keep it up, man! Make sure you reward yourself - buy yourself a game book or something else you really want.

I'm still smoke free on day 203! Over half a year now smoke-free. I bought myself the new edition of the Arkham Horror board game to celebrate.

So I was thinking of rewarding myself for graduating, too, since my diploma finally came (B.A. English/Linguistics). Does this mean I should plan on buying two game books, one REALLY expensive one, or just picking one cheap book and actually buying it?

Wow, it's been, like, two months now. I think I'm done smoking. I hardly ever feel the need to go outside and sit. Nic-fits are long gone. Now, I just have to shed the quitting weight, and I'll be set.

Thanks again, jaerdaph, and everybody here, for inspiration and support.
