Orange Eyed Annabel Lee Using her Mind Control Powers
I'll be in and out, but, i thought i'd post this quickie diary to make it easy on everyone. besides, Miss Lee hopped up on top of me and licked my face to wake me. that doggie has the coldest nose in the western hemisphere! so, i'm awake.
GUS (Gave Up Smoking) is a community support diary for Kossacks in the midst of quitting smoking. Any supportive comments, suggestions or positive distractions are appreciated. We avoid discussion of political issues. If you are quitting or even thinking about quitting, please -- join us!
GUS Library at dKosopedia is organically evolving, and stocked with free-range information: quit-smoking links, helpful GUS diary writing tips, and the GUS buddy list.
A message to all quitters: you don't have to avoid GUS if your latest attempt to quit didn't work out. We won't give you a bad time and we consider the attempted quits as "practice" for the real quit.
Current members of the GUS team! Please post a comment in the butt can if you would like your name added to the GUS Buddy List:
