Cold Turkey

Posted in Life on July 17th, 2006 by moody

cold turkey I just quit smoking so I thought I’d post the progress here, even if I’m the only one who cares. It will make me feel better.Officialy I quit on Friday 14th at 11:59pm so I am three full days nicotine free. Let me tell you first day was a pure hell. Waking up to the neighbors leaf blower and 100 degree hot ass day wasn’t exactly Mardi Gras, but I got through it. Second day wasn’t much better either, but it went without incidents. Now, today for me was a big day since it is my first day at work without cigarettes. Cravings were much lighter today and I got through the day pretty easily actually. It would be even easier if it wasn’t for false fire alarm that made us stand outside on the 100+ degree weather. Well, believe it or not cigarette was the first thing I thought of after they escorted us outside.Off to the next day.

Note: Advance appologies to my wife for everything I said and I will say to her during the Operation Cold Turkey

I still like the guy and I do think he deserved “best player” award. We all had our moments when consequences really didn’t matter. Everyone has a boiling point. For a player of that caliber and age to explode like that, Materazzi must’ve said something really serious, and it had to be through out the whole game. I am on Zidane’s side as of now.
