Oh, another smoking update

[likethebeer]

When I first started doing this, 11 weeks ago, I found myself often clenching my teeth. I've notice in the last few days that I've begun to drop this habit!*

Given that I was spending $15 every 2 days on cigarettes, I would have spent $577.50 in 11 weeks. Subtracting the amount I've spent on patches & gum, I've saved $418.11.

* Of course, now that I've written this, I keep clenching my teeth every time I see it. 8]

That’s some significant moolah!

I know - even less than what I'm spending on fixing my sideview mirror in a few hours.

The rest is road trip money. [big smily face]

Yes, that's totally occurred to me.

Yay, money!

I clenched my teeth when you mentioned clenching your teeth.

Money!

It makes me think that the charging of all this tax on cigarettes is a great idea to give you extra money when you get older & stop smoking. That's right: it's all part of a grand conspiracy, as the best things are.

Hopefully, saving $100 a week can help reduce your stress levels, and the clenching.

Ah, but that money comes out in dribs and drabs.

As sacramentalist noted, reading about clenching my teeth, makes me want to do that (again). Maybe I'll put this post under a cut.
