<div class=\"postavatar\">day-3-of-no-smoking-using-the-patch</div>

As I have stated, I would be quitting smoking after my birthday.  Well I am now on my third day without cigarettes by using the nicotine patch.  Granted, I am still getting nicotine from the patch, but I’ll take the ability to make better habits while not fighting the urge to kill / destroy everyone / everything around me.  Only thing is that I’ve been getting very vivid and strange dreams, but nothing horrible or nightmarish thank goodness.

I also wish to thank everyone who came to my 40th birthday celebration, I’ll have pictures up soon.  Either I’ll make a Flickr account as I’m thinking about turning the gallery page off or I’ll push them up to the gallery.  Haven’t made up my mind yet.
