(snippety)

If you can manage it, put on your fake mustache and glasses, go to the
drugstore and pick up one of those Bonne Bell Lip Smackers and put it on
every time you feel the urge. I'm not kidding on this one, it's what
helped me quit. Don't get the girlie lip glosses in a tube unless you want
to look like Rupaul, get the ones that look like a chapstick. They attract
the least attention for a gentleman when applying, and have no color. The
flavors are very strong, that's why I think they helped.



Hey, another Lip Smackers junkie! I have one of the strawberry ones
in the bathroom, one in my purse, one by the bed, and one in my desk
drawer at work. They are quite yummy and are, indeed, colorless, but
they *are* a little shiny. I say this as fair warning to Steve in
case he wants to check a mirror before leaving the house. ;-)

And congratulations, Steve! I am another who has not managed to quit
yet.

That was Nov. 11, 1990, and I haven't touched one since.


Awww you really do love Patty. Good work Dave.

I was smoking up to between 2 and 3 packs a day, so decided it was
about time to quit. I told myself I'd quit on my BD, which was in
June, but didn't quite make it then. Finally stopped in July, and
haven't smoked since July 15th. (Not to say I went cold turkey, I'm
sucking on those nicotine lozenges and hard candy.)

OK, you're probably wondering why there wasn't an OT in the subject
line. The reason is that the furry ones seem to agree that not
smoking is a great idea. LB has always liked to lay on my chest, but
always took off whenever I reached for a cigarette. Since I always had
a cigarette while on the computer, I never had cats in my lap while
online (though occasionally had to look around one sitting on the desk
to see the monitor). Sammy very rarely came up on my chest, so I
always thought she just preferred laying by my feet. Now I find when
I'm kicked back in the recliner that Sammy is moving up onto my chest,
and both have decided to move off the desk into my lap while at the
computer at times.

So, I've got another reason not to light up a cigarette ;-)



Good news! We send you LOTS OF PURRS to keep it up.
Congratulations to Sammy, Little Bit and Rocky to have a smokefree home and
a smokefree paw!
Elisabet and Hugo Katt
