How much money does the doctor cost? What are the needle patch thingies in your ears?

This week you will have new DVD's to watch!

$100?! How can someone even smoke that much? what is that, 4 packs a day? Whew...Good luck to him, very much. That's a lot of money, poor guy. The acupuncturist charges $95 for the first visit where they do body and ears (although mine gave me a discount, it was $75). And then people go for follow ups once, twice, or three times a week. Some people get full body, then ($65) and some people just get ears ($25). The portable ear/needle patches are to help you, if you get a craving, squeeze the patches a little so you feel the prick, and it helps calm the craving.
New DVD's? I don't get it.

omg! no he doesn't smoke 4 packs a day. i couldn't imagine anybody doing that. he was up to two packs a day for a while. i think cigs in NY are 5.25. something like that so that is like 75.00 a week. still a lot of money to spend on cigs. i am different i can have a cig here and there and not get addicted.
but i don't do that too often.

Thanks again...

I just got back from playing sand volleyball for a couple hours, and now I'm just sittin' here drinking lemonade and thinking about the mechanic who asked me out today after he fixed my car (and it passed its emissions test, woohoo!).

Just got home from from seeing a local punk/new wave band called Black Tie Revue. My head is killing me from dancing so much, but it was a great show. I enjoyed it a lot.

I'm also sitting here thinking about how I'm gonna find another job (getting fired is fun! -_-) I need a drink. I'm not even kidding, either. I'm bad. -_-

It seems I am one of the few who had to work tonight. I worked from 5-3 AM. So NOW, at 4:15 AM I am having a drink to help me sleep.

AMber, I smoke when I drink too. It's one of my few pleasures in life. A drink and smoke. It's horrible but it's the best feeling...like cats purring by your ear or a nice massage or something, just a great AHHHHH feeling LOL.

BUT good luck

Quit!

I've made several visits to my re-stocked fridge & am experimenting with cool buttons on my new phone. "This is the fast lane..."

Quit!

Those are four or five things that don't tempt me.

I'm not much of a drinker, I don't enjoy smoking, I'm not one for massages, and I'm a dog person.
But quitting might be nice.
