The non-smoking continues, though to what overall, lasting benefit I remain unsure. Is it really worth all this mess? Living the rest of my life constantly denying myself cigarettes. Cause I still want them, a lot. It's a feeling that, while it fades, never entirely died in the 5 months constituting my first quit.
P.S. You can sorta see my beard in this picture. I totally grew a beard for the winter. Moustache and all. Go team me.

• I've been doing some smoking math lately, which has been an entirely different brand of frightening than the whole nest of tumors, iron lung side of things. If I quit for just 5 months, I could afford a G5 iMac. That said, I quit smoking (again) tomorrow. It occurs to me nothing is more boring than someone talking about quitting smoking, so I'll keep mum on the subject, which helps avoid the ensuing embarrassment when I slip like the weak little man I am.

from kurt eichenwald's 'conspiracy of fools'

On December 20, Collins was ready to throw in the towel. He was weeks from quitting in frustration, but before he did, he wanted somebody to hear the truth. He banged out an e-mail to one of his supervisors. Enron's ballyhooed effort to develop a software-driven network was fizzling, he wrote, with no market share, no purchasers, and no users. Enron talked a good game but wasn't playing one.
"I don't care what lipstick and rouge you paint that bitch up with," he typed. "She's still just dead meat lying on the sofa."
