Gum chewing (not "cigarette smoking")

likethebeerJust a few minutes ago, I ripped into my purse desperately searching for gum. I try to make sure I've got a stick or two always in my bag, so I felt pretty sure I had something in there. Sometimes I go looking for gum with the intensity of how I used to search for cigarettes.
Success! I ripped into that piece of chewing gum like no one's business. Then had to post about it.
The last time I had a cigarette was 246 days ago. I would have spent about $1,476 on cigarettes in that time. I have probably spent around $20 on gum. Maybe a little more. I find sometimes that this intense desire for gum (in its similarity of the desire for cigarettes - at least emotionally) is somewhat humorous/silly/pathetic (depending on my outlook). Still, I think I'll continue to take gum chewing over cigarette smoking.
