Hi Gang:
Last night I smoked the last cigarette in my pack. I knew I'd wake up and have to run to the store to get more so I could have my morning ritual where I pretty much chain smoke with my coffee and LCB.
This morning, barely awake, I recieved a call that my friend needed to borrow my vehicle, and I of course said "Yes" completely forgetting my lack of nicotine in the house.
As the car taillights disappeared around the corner, it hit me. "OH NO." I felt a fear like I was looking death in the eye. NO CIGARETTES. What will I do? Will I live? Will I die? Will I end up hurting someone?
I did the mad dash thru the house, looking for that evasive butt I might of left in the ashtray, but to no avail. I WAS OUT.
By 8am, I was just a tad cranky. By 10am, I was getting increasingly irritated at the smallest things. By 4pm, I was a real B**ch.
Its a good thing I was alone all today. that way, no one could get hurt unnecessarily.
About 5pm, my friend returns my car. I called her and left a message to PLEASE stop and pick me up some cigarettes. She did. I was waiting for her at the end of the driveway, lighter in hand. I about ripped her arm off trying to get in her purse for those smokes. With shaky hands I lit up. It is true when I say I smoked several in a row.
That is the longest I have been without a cigarette in a very longggg time, and I am not looking to ever try that again any time soon.
Anyone else ever experience the "Out of Smokes" nightmare.
I am now once again in front of my computer , smokes in hand, Also my coffee, and all is right with the world.
All in fun: PMM
