Well, once again I'm giving the 'Quit smoking you filthmonger' thing a good old college try.
I want a cigarette. Now. I don't know what to do. I want a cigarette, so that I can come back inside and start my work. But I do not have a cigarette. I have nicotine gum instead. That shit tastes awful. Like someone mixed a horridly tiny amount of mint into a cheap child's eraser, added some chemical that makes your mouth tingle in a not-fun way, and then marketed it as being the solution to cravings.
My shiny arse it is. I hate chewy, I hate mint flavour, and I hate these fucking things.
I don't think it's going to take the recommended 4 months to quit using this shit. I'm avoiding using the gum as much as possible - I'll quit much faster.
Another bout coming up on June 4. These bloody things are relentless. There's always another one to prepare for. But I've had good scrimmage this weekend. Fun scrimmage.
