Default Another reason to quit smoking

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 ;-)
