face breaking out...quit zits!

Quit zits, there was a tiny mouse playing a tuba that followed me around everywhere, and there was the horseradish incident...  :crazy:

mouth ulcers, sore throat, major spots, and this really really bad habit of sighing very heavily!  Seriously my sighs could be heard in the next town lol xx

Rubbish sleep and spots! An insatiable appetite for junk food, and an unhealthy obsession with chewing gum... All is normal now though, lol

So that´s normal? I was meaning to ask...

what are spots??

what are spots??

We Colonists  call them 'zits'

No sleep!  But that is finally getting better.

definitely!    See below for a funny take on quitting...found it here...

 

THE UNTOLD STORY

20 minutes after quitting.

You begin looking for loopholes in your quit commitment, thinking about postponing the whole arrangement until after the next millenium begins.

 

After 8 hours.

You have already contemplated at least three murders and several other brutal acts of violence.

 

After 24 Hours.

Your city or town declares a mysterious and unforeseen water shortage, while municipal sewers are suddenly overwhelmed.

 

After one week.

You have consumed enough calories to sustain a Bengali village of 2000 for four years. Food shortages become critical within your region; pets and local wild animals become nervous.

 

After two weeks.

Quitzits establish early outposts on your face. Risk of Browser's Butt Syndrome (BBS) rises to equal that for 13_year_old boys with new computers and internet access. Smileys appear in your writing and begin to replicate :)

 

Within one month.

You have already begun to pester smokers and complain about the smell of their obnoxious cigarettes; IQ returns to low double_digits; Quitzits begin to function autonomously. Exclamation point shortages prevail across the land.

 

After six weeks

You may have experienced your first bowel movement since your quit began; if not, be patient, it will happen within a few more weeks.

 

After two months.

You begin to forget the pain and misery of the first week without cigarettes, and are wondering if you could, perhaps, remind yourself of what you've been missing; Quitzits establish territorial treaties with each other.

 

After five months.

Intelligence returns to at least 60% of its pre_quit level; concentration remains a problem, at only 50%; carpal tunnel syndrome incidence exceeds all known levels for any keyboard_intensive occupation; you have typed more words than are contained within all the works of William Shakespeare, but with more flair and "sparkle".

 

After six months.

You wonder why you ever waited this long to quit. It's way, way, worth it.

That was incredibly funny!  :lol2: 

Thanks Nancy!

My skin itched, my face and neck felt like they were on fire sometimes. I chose to think on it as the healing starting on the inside and pushing every impurity out of my body :)  Small price to pay but sure was frustrating at the time.

My belly grew

Bat dog and burrito are the funny guys. Some other smart asses on chick team too

Oh wow, I forgot the nose bleeds! 

 

Laughed at the enough to feed an entire village part, yep :)
