Have you ever had an extended weekend and it passes you by really fast because you don’t have a lot on your plate? I’m on the threshold of that weekend.
I had hopes of going out Friday night, however, hitting the 3 month mark in the smoking cessation has me craving a cigarette *really* bad and I fear falling off the wagon by being around people who smoke or places where there’s temptation. Staying smoke free is more important than going out for the first time in over a year.
Perhaps the change in my eating habits has psychologically triggered the feelings of the first few days I had experienced when I put out my last smoke. I’ve no clue- I’ve hit a rough spot, but I remain eating the greens and changed out the chicken for salmon and lettuce for spinach this week.
Jonathon’s tired, the weather is a-typical Pacific NW autumn and I just read a news article where an 8 year old boy killed his father and his fatehrs friend in Arizona. Palin in back home in AK where there seems to be an economic crisis going on and I feel like shoving baby carrots in my mouth to pacify my want for sweets! ARGH!!!!!!!
While looking up information on Spider-Man Web of Shadows, seeing that the PS2 version (like most) SUCKS and how I need to get it on PS3… and I NEED a PS3 REALLY BAD… I saw that Tomb Raider Underworld comes out on November 18th!!!!!! OMGGGGGGGGGGG Jonathon’s birthday is November 27th and sadly he doesn’t want the TR game 
*sob*
I may wait to get it for if/when I ever geet the next generation in consoles, but it doesn’t stop my longing to have it. *BIG SOB*
That’s a lot of cravings. I have nothing to offer on the cigarette or gaming front, but I have found something that helps me a little on the sweets front: chocolate-covered Altoids. They come in both peppermint and cinnamon flavors. The beauty is that they give me a true chocolate experience at a cost of only 15 calories, but because they’re “curiously strong” I don’t really feel like eating more than one of them at a time.
