It was a great day, but I was nervous over my daughter trying out for basketball, nervous for her. I was on my way to the gas station and then to pick her up from try-outs, when my mind was racing. Gas Stations = Smokes!!!! I'm on chantix, but I thought I was going to loose my mind and was doubting if I could actually walk in ther without purchasing my favorite pack of cigs. You see, I have been paying at the pump to avoid walking up to the gas station counters, but this time I had to get milk (the kid's cannot go without milk because there mother is addicted to nicoteen). So there I am, pumping my gas, chewing my lip. I think when I finally walked into the gas station, I had a wild women look on my face, got my gallon of milk, and got in line to pay for everything. As I'm waiting in line, of course you can see all the packs of smokes just staring at you, taunting you, the little demons. I needed a distraction fast!!!! I grabbed the largest blow-pop I could find when I got up to the counter, paid for everything and almost ran out of the station. I was unwrapping the blow pop on my way out to the car and shoving it in my mouth. I sucked the life out of that poor sucker!!! But I didn't smoke!!!! Yeah Me!!!!!!!
