I HAVE to do this

I have to stop smoking. I don't smoke every day but I sure do smoke a lot when I go out. It's disgusting, I know. It's bad for my health, I know. It harms other people, I know. We all know this but we still keep lighting up. Why? I think it is more of the association of smoking while drinking, or eating, or driving that gets us. Of course nicotine is the kicker but I think it is more about wanting to smoke while doing other things. So I went 6.5 days without smoking while drinking or socializing. Last night I gave away yet another pack of cigarettes but I had 2 before doing so. I'm hating myself this morning for being so weak. I have to thank Heather for trying to tell me that I didn't want one last night but I did. Ashley is right though that is better than smoking 20. So this week I'm going to go for zero. If I don't slip hopefully it will be only 1 this time. I am going to follow Heather's advice and simply not buy any. Now I just need to not bum any.....
