I haven't had a full cigarette in 8 days.
8 days ago I decided to put an end to a 10-year habit.
Lapsing into my 4th flu in 2 months,
I made up my mind to give up the dead-sticks.
Not entirely. Surely an ocassional drag over a coffee or martini is fine.
Of late I'd found that my body was rejecting the very filth it used to crave for:
I began to loathe cigarettes on the dance-floor, gave up pre-work fags, and developed a sore throat the morning after a big night.
And so in a drive to better my (pathetic) life, I decided to quit. Cigarette first, and the rest will follow.
