urocyonThis is the second day of trying to stop smoking, and I think it's going a little better so far. Last night I gave in and smoked more than I'd intended to after I started into the coughing (yes, very sensible--my lungs are trying to clear some of that stuff out, so my trained response is to attempt to gunk them up again). Still, it was far less than I would have done usually. My control today has been a little better so far. I'm trying tapering some, since going cold turkey off less than I've been smoking recently didn't work before, patches or no, and I was in less distress drastically reducing my consumption. Let's hope that the approach of cutting down before stopping entirely, with proper motivation, is a better one.
The guy-on-another-continent called me last night. :) I can be rather strange about the phone sometimes, but I enjoyed that and think I handled it pretty well. Nice voice. *g* I do feel like an idiot, though, because he was supposed to call again a couple of hours ago, and I just discovered before I got online that the ringers were turned off on every phone upstairs. (Thanks to a particularly annoying telemarketer this morning, apparently.) Ah well. He has the mobile number too, anyway; that's what he called on last night and we were almost driven crazy by the thunderstorm-generated static.
Well, I wrote that last paragraph a couple of hours ago; have been talking to him on IRC in the meantime. :) That's at least as good as calling.
And it occurs to me, not for the first time, that this is another spectacularly boring post.
