September 15th, 2001:

Though it wasn’t really our intention in the beginning, it looks like we are having an impromptu gathering at our place. Nothing incredibly unusual. We’ll probably just order pizza, watch movies, and make fun of each other.

If you can read this, you are invited. YES… this means YOU too. Just call to get directions. 972.670.7587.

Update: We’re at fifteen or so people now. Sorry no new invitees! :)

Update: Make that like twenty, jesus christ!

Working out was a good idea. Granted, I haven’t performed any physically stressing activities in quite some time, so I tired easy. If I had to guess I would say that, health-wise I didn’t gain a damn thing from my workout this evening. However, it did keep me from smoking. It helped keep my mind off of it completely. In fact, I haven’t really craved a cigarette since we left my apartment to work out. Until now that is.

Eating seems to relieve my desire to smoke. Unfortunately, that means I stand to gain some weight. I need to go to the grocery store and buy some food that isn’t so fattening for eating when I feel the need to do so instead of smoking. Replacing one health risk for another isn’t exactly what I had in mind.

farrisgoldstein> and have been making jokes lately regarding me being right with them, in regards to conversations, jokes, and what not, but slightly to one side. In other words, I get the jokes and catch on to what is being said… but there is always one little piece that doesn’t make sense. Now… though it may be merely coincidence I have never heard them saying such things prior to my decision to quit. I think that quitting is causing me to loose portions of my mental capacity. Hopefully this loss is temporary.
