My brother and his wife just quit yesterday. Or at least that was the story at 9pm. Things may have changed since then...

How's that treating you so far? The first three days are the worst.

Yesterday was a breeze for some reason.

Today is more difficult.

I'll survive.

I'm doing the patch so, I'm still getting somewhat of a fix.

I was just talking about this over the weekend, at a baby shower of all places. A friend used the patch, and said he never would have made it without that. RunningChick swears by Zyban.

Zyban did it for me-3 1/2 years now.

Scribe's on Zyban and she's doing worse than I am.

Of course it probably doesn't help her that she just started back at school after a 15 year hiatus.

probably not, no. how's school going for her?


Green M&M's for the quiters!

what do i have to quit in order to get green m&m's? nevermind, i do other things for them :)

how's school going for her?

Pretty good. Lots of reading and homework. She's taking four real classes and a weight lifting class so it's keeping her pretty busy.

I've become Mr. Mom. I've been making lunches, helping the kids with homework and have done laundry every day for the past two weeks.

and you still have time to be the sysop and quit smoking. hmm. sounds like a miracle to me. :)

my sister's got to take 2 phys ed classes at st. kate's sometime during the next 4 years. she's convinced she's gonna take swimming and badminton, as that's what she played competitively in high school. i keep telling her to forget the badminton and take golf instead. she's gonna be a doctor for crying out loud; doctors play golf.

Smart ass!

take golf instead. she's gonna be a doctor for crying out loud; doctors play golf.

What if she hates golf?

well considering she's never played (i've played 27 holes and managed to shoot a 161 on the 16 holes we scored on phalen on labor day), she really doesn't get to say she hates it now does she?

Wed, 09/11/2002 - 6:55 PM Permalink
THX 1138



Well, she's gotta play at least once but, what if she hates it after she tries it?

Does that mean she can't be a doctor?

Wed, 09/11/2002 - 7:01 PM Permalink

hmmm. yup :)

speaking of which, scribe, after she's done, will presumably hold a j.d. degree, right? does she play? cuz if not she's gotta learn too. :)

Wed, 09/11/2002 - 7:02 PM Permalink
THX 1138



Yep, she'll hold a J.D. and no she doesn't play.

Nor can I see her taking it up.

Wed, 09/11/2002 - 7:08 PM Permalink

see. then she can't get the degree either. i thought playing golf was a prereq for getting into any d. degree program. :)

Wed, 09/11/2002 - 7:09 PM Permalink

No, no, no.

It's a prereq for being a poser.

and a weight lifting class

Just give her a shovel!

Or is that in preparation for January?

Maybe thats a sign we're expecting a heavy snowfall this winter?

Just give her a shovel!

She does plenty of that too with her gardening.

Or is that in preparation for January?

I think it's more for Ice Dancing. She's taking a ballet class as well.

Maybe thats a sign we're expecting a heavy snowfall this winter?

God, I hope not. I'm hoping it's like last year.

Thanks, I will.

As of today, Scribe and I have saved over $50.00 from not smoking.

:: does some math here ::


that works out to what? some $3652.50 per year? wow.

Fri, 09/13/2002 - 6:01 AM Permalink
THX 1138



I got it all figured out. $3.50 a pack, 3 packs a day between us, 365 days a year = $3,832.50.

Nice job! How many patches are you wearing?

Fri, 09/13/2002 - 7:15 AM Permalink
THX 1138



Well, right now I take a 21mg patch and cut it in half.

I use half in the morning and the other half at night after dinner.

Oh, you can put two or three on at the same time. Go ahead, it's fun!

I think he had about a dozen on. Two or three is fine. Trust me. :)
