what am I listening to..?
the countdown to midnight...


panic mode...

only seven and a half hours to go before I try to kick the tobacco habit. I've performed all the appropriate rituals; an ending ritual, a strength ritual, a beginning ritual and a clarifying ritual. I think I've covered all the bases... I hope.
I've also prepared a weeks worth of high protein meals and snacks to help me get over the effect of nicotine withdrawal, along with a good supply of decaf green tea, some chamomile tea and some St. John's wort. I'm going to try to kick the caffeine habit at the same time, since one habit seems to foster the other. I'm steeled for the battle, though, come what may.
So, now all I have to do is disconnect the gas line to the oven, hide all the sharp knives and rope in the house... I think if I can get through the first week I'll be ok. I'll let you all know how it goes.
Well, I think I'm going to go have some dinner and then write a new music review for the Cafe. I'll see you later!
