I quit smoking..... cigarettes

The day finally dawned when I threw the nails down. I have been wanting to stop, but have no willpower. Just ask my second wife. She bought me a Nautilus vape pipe for Father's day.

Maybe a pipe is the wrong terminology. Vape bong would be accurate. Push the little button and suck out the top. Presto a cloud of mango flavored vapor floats out my mouth.

See I have an assortment of vape pens in my desk. I had the Winston flavor which tastes like a normal ashtray butt re-lit cigarette.

After two strokes last summer it looks like that would have been a good sign to quit, but I am too fucking stupid.

The vape came just in time as I had come down with a raunchy head cold on Father's day and anyone who smokes knows that it is hard to do so with a cold.

Mebbe I will have success and my little (ha ha) buddy in SE Jersey will see the light.

If you're vaping, have you really quit? I tried it, but the vapor makes me cough my lungs out.

I quit, too! 80 days ago to be exact :)

Bah, quitters. :p:

I quit when the cashier tried to charge me $1.03 for a pack of Winston reds. The day before they were $0.78.

I quit right after Christmas 2009. Haven't gone back yet, but still have cravings.
Hardest drug I ever quit - BY FAR!

Ok I'm back. I went for a 228 mile ride on the Harley.

The Nautilus has 3 settings. Small, medium and large openings for how much air is drawn up. Like the carburetor on a pipe.

I use the small setting. Anything higher is a choker for me. At first I used the 21 mg. Presently on 14 mg. Seemed a little weak at first. Now it taste like shit like the 21 was.

I will get a picture of the appliance, but my cat Tiger is sleeping on my lap.

I started with mango flavor cause it is smooth, but still has a nicotine hit without the tar. Ok Tiger got up.

Generally I don't fill it up. Halfway will last for days. Have I had a Camel Blue since, but of course. It is like smoking without lighting it up.

These will be seen for $129.99, but my wife looks for the bargains and purchased all for 80 bucks including tax.

Jimmy boy I saw how your face turns red when you smoke. I am doing this for my health, but you better think about yours too.

smoke

I'm stealing that.^^^^

Why not, I stole it. :blush:

For some reason, I just can't see Jim with cig in hand.

That's cuz your way down there in the swamp. And I don't turn red. I'm always red.

Is the vape supposed to be a weaning step?

Yes yes it is. I started with the 24 mg then 14, but I guess I wasn't ready yet so I went back to the 24 mg today. Much better. I have no urge to sneak one.

I have no urge to smoke dope either even though I can get mariwana oil over the counter in SC. One of these days I will get down there. Too hot to ride a bike.

Think i'll smoke a Marlbro smoke now. Yea I know, but it's 10:50 PM and I've had a drink or 4

Yes, my brother has been weaning for at least six years at $50 a month.

Of course, they should NEVER be picked up,,,my son in law made it to 55 and his lungs were gone...he picked up first cig at 10, quit when his first was born, but too late. Never got to see his 2 kids as young adults....:mad:

9 out of 10 smokers don't get cancer.
2 out of 3 smokers don't die from it.
Mike Pence said so.
