Well, I had a brush with losing my smobriety this morning and won.  I
had company over last night and in cleaning up this morning I
discovered a totally unsmoked sickerette left behind by one of my
guests.  It startled and surprized me.  I looked at it and held it in
my hand for a moment.  The evil part of my brain [da DEMON] started
telling me I *could* smoke it and it wouldn't matter but my true
nature kicked my *** and stood up and I yelled out NOOO so loud
Lucifer woke up and I crushed that turd and flushed it down the
toilet.  [Go Archie Bunker!!!]

I was surprised at how quickly my brain nearly went goo-goo after 15+
months smobriety for that moment.  I am glad I did what I did and
humbled to realize just how fragile part of my quit actually is.
Thank Goddess for AS3 as I wonder if I could be telling anyone this
story if you all were not here.

55 seconds. 10729 cigarettes not smoked, saving $3,218.65. Life saved:
5 weeks, 2 days, 6 hours, 5 minutes.

That was nowhere near a "brush with losing my smobriety".
That was feeding the good dog.
Rock on Mike!
