The kid says thank you and good night. I am so loving this age. But seriously thanks for taking the time to answer her question. -
Ear Worm - one of those songs that get stuck in your head for hours or days on end, over and over and over it goes and you sing... sometimes its not even a whole song, just the chorus or the intro... I fricking hate ear worms..

Ok need to expand this on this .... Besides deciding to see how far I could take this quit, the only real thing I have done to make it stick is to NOPE, and even that has more to do with everyone else than it does with me. This quit is really so sticky because of everyone else here.... you see, for me, it works like this... it was all just a big joke and a big game (my quit), kind of a like a dare I gave myself each day, a bit of an experiment (and we all know how I love my experiments ). Anyway, I was into week 3 and I sort of thought, might be time to take this serious I'm actually doing this and then...the week 3 mental breakdown hit... the wheels were falling off my quit. A google search lead me to the over there, where I did some scatty post and Jillar, and Beazel and a heap of others jumped on an gee'd me up... so then I went awol and dealt with my real life issues over chrissy (which were pretty hairy), didn't toss my quit but was missing from the boards. Once real life settled it was back online to all the post new years join ups. Every single day was 24 hours of hell as I struggled to get through without lighting up... every day I would look at the NOPE thread but I wouldn't post.. because, well, Not One Puff Ever... really could I publicly declare that?... in front of all these people who I was getting to know and consider friends... yeah-nah I wasn't doing that, some of these friends really meant something and if I said NOPE and then tossed it in I couldn't face them again, I'd have to walk away and well if I didn't NOPE and did toss it away I wouldn't feel like I had lied to everyone so I could stay and start over... yep real junkie, had the contingencies all lined up... and then 1 day I I went "Ah Fvck it" cos I was kinda feeling fraudulent that i didn't NOPE so I did... and I kid you not the whole quit and crave thing became easier... but the thought of giving up this quit, tossing it away, is more tied to loosing face to everyone in that NOPE thread... cos every day I go in there and I NOPE and I mean it and if I toss that... I just lied to everyone and I'm a total fricking sham. The second thing is the last time I relapsed it took me over a decade to do this again... over a decade... why??? because I felt so sh1tty about myself, I felt like I was pathetic and I'd never be able to do it so why bother... BS... 5 months, feeling better and stronger than I ever did that last time. But why, why am I better with it this time... Its you sticks and chick, you blokes and sheilas, you lads n lassies, guys and girls, its all of you who accept the annoying craziness that can be me at times, those of you who notice the patterns when I take up residence on the river nile and I act like all is fine but you somehow know its not and reach out with a PM and then have to put up with an hour or two of wow is me yada, yada, yada... its the ones who make me laugh out loud, even if I'm on a packed train, or the ones that tell me I'm doing a good job (so clearly we all now know that's a thing for me too) ... its the ones who bare witness to my nope each day, its those old phartes who drag out brilliant posts from the archives to save me searching for them, its those who are just a daily presence to swap a number with or change a letter with , or answer a silly question, its those of you who look at my posts and realise its an SOS even when I don't myself and give me the arse kicking, reality check I need... This quit is so sticky because I have every single, eccentric, dedicated, crazy arsed fellow junky on this train at my back holding me up and pushing me forward. So I hope ya all frickin proud.

The cubs always exceed expectations, everyone underestimates us, I just don't know why, its not like we gave them decades of evidence to fall back on. Some players you just know, his first homer, I kid you night it was like watching someone warming up at training, it was so laid back and relaxed... It must feel good having him and Albies in the same line up.

I think everyone agrees with not liking the trade... but if it was me and I knew how everyone felt like Quintana has to know I'd be bustin me ar5e to prove everyone wrong, could be just the incentive he needed... "think they wasted a trade on me, I bloody show them" kinda deal.

@PeaceTrain thanks for the vote of confidence and all the support... big one for you on the horizon, thanks for lighting my way. @jillar thanks but I had a pretty good group of teachers in the very early days with you and Beazel... but thank you for all your support, its easier to do this knowing you've got me back. @Lin-quitting thanks for always knowing what to say when I need to hear it. @Boo thanks boo... and thanks for tolerating my presence in some of the blokey threads like Hit & Run... loving it, especially as not many to talk ball with in my neck of the woods... BUT seriously, The Hoff... not a babe, not at all, not one bit. @catlover thanks for the support and also for all the game time... just checked your date... not long now until your in the 25%ers... were doing this together.

Why wont the Queen step down.... my answer (cos her sons too much of a looser to be king, she's hoping he does first then she can step down and give it to Wills) was clearly insufficient because... "I think you should ask those internet people from England, they will know your just stupid".... yay me...
