Well, once again, for anyone who actually might be keeping up with things, I have been neglecting this this Blog severely, BUT again I've had good reasons. As I said in my last post, the IT ninjas at work cut off my access, and well it's just hard for me to plop my butt down in front of the computer at home. 40 hours a week is A LOT! :) There's also been a lot goi

Well I've neglected this thing for a while now, I know. I guess it's been over a week since I posted and no I haven't been locked in my bedroom mourning the loss of Chris Reeve. No, the IT Ninjas at work have seen fit to block my access to JoeUser. I guess, my posting during breaks has some way distracted me from my job. Oh well, at least I got my Yahoo games bac

As far as enterntainment goes, Sunday was both a high and a low for me. On the positive side of things, the St. Louis Cardinals won their Division Series against LA in the fourth game, and are now going on to the NLCS against Houston which will begin Wednsday. But then on the negative side of things, I along with the rest of the world, had to say goodbye to a true M

I know I haven't mentioned it before on this Blog, but that's mainly because there was really never any reason to, but now it must be said. I am a HUGE Baseball fan!! More importantly I am a HUGE St. Louis Cardinals fan! I have been for as long as I can remember. In fact some of my earliest memories involve making the 3 - 4 hour ride, with my family, from our home

Yeah I agree totally. I'm just curious if any of the points of the article (I.E. has erupted before 640,000 years ago or whatever, etc) have any validity to them. Like I said, never heard of it, and was just curious if anyone else had heard of it, or if someone had just pulled it out of their backsides! But good point about the geysers and their juice. I suppose it is at least somewh

Val emailed me this article earlier today and I'm just curious if anyone else has heard of this before. Basically the article says that "Five miles beneath Yellowstone, lies an immense pool of red hot magma. Fed from the Earth's mantle, it has been growing. This reservoir of magma and gas is now 31 miles long, 19 mi

Well I've made it one week! That's right, one whole week without a cigarette. It's kind of remarkable, and again I would like to give full credit where it is due, to the patches. Sure I've been doing other things. For instance, I have this little card in my wallet that's stuck in there in front of my drivers license that has all these reasons that I want to quit sm

Well I've kind of neglected this blog the past couple of days, so let me bring everyone up to speed. I still haven't had a cigarette, thanks to my daily diet of suckers, peppermints, and of course...NICOTINE PATCH!! I'm on day 6 now, almost a week....UNBELIEVABLE!! :) Anyway, I've been off work the past couple of days, and that's mainly why I haven't posted much.

Well I have to be honest, I never intended to EVER do more than one post on here per day, but this one is off topic anyway, so I'm letting myself slide. Basically, I just came through 5 O'clock Rush Hour for the third day in a row without cigarettes and it's high time that I got to vent a little. Seeing as how after Monday, everyone I know decided that they wouldn'

Well I'm on day three! I guess for some people, that's not a big deal, but for me, it's quite the achievement. I've doubled my previous record, and even begun to leave that in the dust. I'm not much on pulling my own chain (not entirely true, I mean, I have a BLOG don't I?) but I just want to say that I'm DAMN PROUD OF ME!! :) But anyway, just to chang

Well I did it, I broke my previous record, and am actually on my way toward 36 hours without a cigarette, but it would appear that one of the powers that be in the universe is trying to test my will. It seems that last night, I fell asleep with my glasses on. Nothing unusual really. However, this morning at 7 in the AM, I woke up, gripped with the horror that they

Yeah, excercising is definitely on the list of things to do to avoid cravings, but I didn't figure it would look too good if my manager were to walk up as I'm doing crunches in the floor of my cube at work, so Blogging was one of my best options. That and looking at groovy stuff on the web that I intend to buy with the money I'm now saving. But anyway thanks for support!! It is greatl

Okay granted, this is no big conquest, but I haven't had a cigarette since about midnight last night. It's 4:00PM right now. Sure, that's no where near long enough to consider myself quit. I haven't even broken my previous record yet. BUT, considering that it has been about 16 hours since I last took a drag off of one of those little wonder sticks, AND that I'm st

This is what I'm referring to as an online account of my attempt to quit smoking. I use the word attempt because unfortunately it's not my first try at all this. And if I've learned anything from previous attempts it's that you never want to say you QUIT, until you actually do. So what makes this time around so special that it should be documented? Well nothing at
