Now excuse me while I go out and ruin my... youthfullness... I need to smoke.... :lol:

I thought you quit - of course I quit like five times last year :laugh:

Tell me about it. :rolleyes:

Good: Africa

Bad: Drama

I'm not even a drama-type person. How did I get sucked into so much of it in '07? Damn.

I thought I quit too. I started back up again last May. It lasted 9 months. I want to quit again, but I want to lose weight more. I can only do one healthy thing at a time! :lol:

other good: performing at NOTS and meeting awesome Ledgies; seeing Stevie and Tom in CA and meeting awesome Ledgies; managing to lose the majority of the weight I set out to

Hi babe. Glad to see you.

howdy. :wavey:

Yep - the need to eat to satisfy the oral fixation caused by smoking is WAY difficult to overcome and chewing gum just does not do it LOL.

I am pretty good with the smoking though. I usually do not booze it up during the week and without the booze, I won't smoke.

That's exactly what started it! My friend came in from Arizona back in May, bought mixers for Lemondrop Martini's, and we drank and smoked all week long! Not to mention the nerve wrecking trip to Disney that soon followed! Thus, I started back up. :distress: I gained something like 20 lbs when I quit though, and I've lost more then that since. So it's a trade off... haha.

Good: Still married despite various Mac related trips. :thumbsup: Getting new kitty cat. Seeing out of town bro & nephew 3 times.

Bad: Lost other kitty cat. Grandma-in-law getting sicker.

Good - good records, copious amounts of concerts, meeting some of my favorite bands, meeting amazing people in general, getting a gorgeous arctic white Telecaster, taking on drawing as a new passion, cute dresses, new iPod (Nico!), one of my best friends giving me her old camera, being labeled a pretentious hipster jerk (because it's true, maybe?) making people realize that it is indeed very chic and hip to shop at thrift stores, wearing wigs even though I don't really need to.

Bad - my grandfather getting really sick, our cat Lola ran away, a terrible haircut, being sick pretty much all year, not having the balls to tell a guy that I liked him back, pretty much losing my hearing, Marketing class, PE class, scene kids, still not having a band, having to deal with stuck-up cockrock guitarists who only want to play Van Halen or Fall Out Boy covers, no one turning up at shows I helped immensely with promoting, corporate bull****.

Why scene kids? :lol: Little bastards...

Q: Why don't scene kids live out in the country?
A: Because no one's out there to see their hair.... :rolleyes:

Heee!

I hate scene kids. I shouldn't hate them, but.. I do. Wait, no, I should, because ratting your hair out and looking like a baboon is just wrong on so many levels.

More good & bad...
