Default Over a year smoke free and BAM, craving outta NOWHERE

Used to be a heavy smoker, quit over a year ago and just sitting here at the PC, I get a strong urge, almost uncontrollable one, to step outside and have a smoke! arghhh. It helps that we keep a totally smokefree home, it doesnt help that I know MrsCrzydmnd'* cigs are right out on the porch!

I won't go smoke, but I had to vent off somewhere

Put down the lighter and step away from the tobacco!
You take one puff and you'll have to go through all the quitting and withdrawal BS again.
Go have a beer instead...

Its finally passing now, There is a storm coming in, http://radar.weather.gov/ridge/radar...101111&loop=no

and I had thought I would step outside and watch the lightning, thats when the craving hit lol. Its fading fast, just hadnt had to deal with that in awhile. Maybe here in a few more mins I will feel better enough to actually step out and see the storm

I've only had one vice to really give up and did that over a year ago.
I don't plan to quit smoking and the occasional "beverage" now and then...

hope it wasnt women, one wrong move and they are deadlier than tobacco

I plan to live to a very OLD and GRIPEY age, spending my last withered years living with my kids, payback for all those fundraisers they bring home from school

HE HE I used to smoke too for five years. I still had a craving 3-4 years later. I would say this is one of many battles to come. May be different for you though. Good luck and don't do it.

its all good now, just had to stay glued to the desk and screen. Getting brave enough to go out and see the show for a minute.
