Re: OT: How's the weather?

It's another beautiful day in Hillbilly Hell. OH....I forgot to tell you guys! Tommy and I were driving to the bowling alley last Friday and we saw a man riding his John Deere lawn mower down the wrong side of the road (on the grass) with no shirt on and a beer in one hand. I think he was just driving to someone's house but he was swerving all over the place. I wonder if he could get a ticket for drunk mowing?

On a different note, my best friend is graduating from college this weekend and she's staying with us for a few days. I'm so excited because she lives in Cocoa, FL so I don't get to see her but once a year.

Mucci...just quit with the smokes already or at least commit to cutting back. As I see it, even if the stress of your living situation disappeared, you'll find something else to stress out over. One of which needs to be your overall. Now cork it for a second and let me say what I am going to say. The money you are using on smokes could be better used for food and bills. Those headaches you are having could be caused by your diet, your meds, your anxiety issues which cause you to lose sleep...lots of stuff. Seems more beneficial to cut the crap now, get your head out of your butt, and quit falling back on the sticks!

(All said with all the love I could muster)

Sure...assuming he mows in front of a cop who cares. That beer can should be just enough if the public intoxication isn't.

Re: OT: How's the weather?

Tell you what Becky...I'll do my darndest to cut back to only half a pack a day. But and I hate saying this in a public forum becuase I don't know who's cops and who isn't. I have a secret...I only pay about 32 a month for my smokes...and that's two cartons. I get my smokes from some tribe in New York..and before someone goes off on how that isn't safe and I could get hit with back taxes this is the safest tribe to order from....everything is done in a real cloak and dagger type situation....its not a ton of work but it does involve some skill.....and it's well worth it...I saw a sign yesterday that marlboros were going for 5.90 a pack...A PACK. that's nuts. RI really treats is smokers like second class citizens.

Re: OT: How's the weather?

I doubt anyone cares if you get tax free smokes...we are more concerned about everything else. Of all the crap you have going on in your life, the one area where you actually have the most control over is the smoking. Can't do squat over things your sister is up to, can't do much to get your folks feeling better if they don't want help, can't make the economy better so job hunting becomes a breeze, but you can do something about bad habits. Start by cutting back by 1/3...if you make it 1/2, good for you. As long as it isn't raining or snowing, I would also suggest taking short walks here and there to get some fresh air and clear your head. Walking around the block is still free even at 40-50 degree weather (that is what coats are for)...or find some activities that are free and distracting.

Your cost of medical care will be astromical in the future Mucci because of the debilitating effects of smoking. I love you like a brother, and don't want you to pay for your self inflicted pain and suffering.

Re: OT: How's the weather?

Tis a beautiful morning in NorCal...we've got a couple of cool & cloudy days in the forecast, then warming back up at least into the mid-80's.
