These past weeks I've been chainsmoking.  Yesterday I had  two packs, of course not all where consumed by me but still, one can't help but feel stupid while buying them.   Awful awful habit.

Coffee and cigarrettes are ace together, but I preffer them with milk and tea.

Addiction's a bitch.

Also, Thrindle:

If those are your eyes, then I must agree with whoever said they're gorgeous.

ah, cigarrettes.........i had as huge addiction towards them.for years......i always had my beer and cigs ready when watching film exspecially.......
then while lookin gover the internet on google i searched for pictures of people who have cancers of the mouth and such and i felt two things:

1. how sorry i feel for these people who have this..
2. i do not want this to happen to me........

so, i made up my mind right their to stop smoking those things....i thought about how  horrible it would be for me and my family and friends to know that i had a smoking related illness and dies b/c of it....... :( ..........


and now for seven months and counting  i have been smoke free...
.and i drink less also...... :) ...........................please quit..........its phucking tough... but enjoy life while you can............

I stopped smoking for a year and got back to the vice some three months ago.  Frankly, the only two good things that'd make me stop smoking now would be:  
1. Women
2. Children

Which won't happen anytime soon, I hope.

If I were to get pregnant I'd definately quit... Hmm... any thoughts GT?
Obviously kidding.  No mother will I ever be.  Ok, I won't be one until I can find the right test tube to put the baby in.

Thank you for all of your advice, Thrindle.

You were right with your deductions about what kind of a person she is.

I want to keep in touch with her and hope to one day pick it up back up where we left off, but until then, wish me luck.

OK, so I had two friends of mine fill out an exam of what they thought about me for a communications class. Most of  the questions are simple description words with them checking a responce to what best fits me. The choices are Not at All, Slighty, Moderately, Rather Well and Extremely Well. So, with every word of description, they put what answer they thought was best for me. Could you tell me what you think of these answers and then answer each one yourself? OK, here it goes:

1.) Self Confident: a.) Extremely Well b.) Extremely Well
2.) Tactful: a.) Not at All b.) Not at all
3.) Irritable: a.) Slightly b.) Moderately
4.) Quiet: a.) Not at all b.) Not at all
5.) Serious: a.) Not at all b.) Slightly
6.) Energetic: a.) Slightly b.) Rather Well
7.) Cooperative: a.) Moderately b.) Not at all
8.) Prejudiced: a.) Extremely Well b.) Not at all
9.) Unpredictable: a.) Extremely Well b.) Extremely Well
10.) Leader: a.) Rather Well b.) Moderately
11.) Selfish: a.) Not at all b.) Moderately
12.) Considerate of Others: a.) Slightly b.) Moderately
13.) Tenseness: a.) Slightly b.) Not at all
14.) Accepts Criticism: a.) Rather Well b.) Extremely Well
15.) Aggressiveness: a.) Rather Well b.) Moderately
16.) Easy to get to Know: a.) Extremely Well b.) Moderately
17.) Imaginative: a.) Moderately b.) Extremely Well
18.) Friendly: a.) Extremely Well b.) Moderate
19.) Physically Attractive: a.) Slightly b.) Not at all
20.) Trusting of Others: a.) Moderately b.) Moderately

and finally, word that best describes me: a.) intense b.) cocky

So, considering these two guys sometimes contradict themselves, what do you think? Curious considering you know me ten times better than both of them put together.

I think it's obvious that both of them buy into the person you portray.  Are both of them right?  Yes.  They are in the sense that they are accurate at depicting who you seem to be.

But I'm the most right because I'm Thrindle.

Could you rate yourself using that list of 20 things that GT supplied?

Well Brad, I never watched it.  I don't think it was on in Canada, but even if it was, I probably wouldn't have watched it.  The folks at MTV, or MuchMusic (in Canada), all seem to be the same.  We indulge in television that reduces our standards to that of a fuckwit.  Further more, we are being brainwashed into believing that Fuckwiticism (yes, it is a word), is actually something to strive for.
God help us all.  Bad bad bad.
Classic.

Obviously what you are doing right now is called (in my upcoming book of psychology at least) validation. I think it's a normal thing to do. People will reply, say anything, and then you're gonna do what you were subconsciently thinking of doing all along.
