WELL THAT WAS A TOTAL PAIN IN THE ARSE

Is it only me who has a computer that is shit?
It stopped working (internet wise) the other day and my brother has only just got it working now. Dodgy cable? How on earth?

Well, its Sunday and I 've just fed my football team with very unexciting chicken and new potatoes but they seem happy enough.

I well feel like getting smashed but Im not going to. I have decided.
I have some building contractor coming in the morning and I will try and explain what he needs to knock down and rebuild to accomodate smokers post 1st July.

I have been doing some calculating and I think I gave up smoking nearly five years ago. March 3rd 2002 I think it was, it was definatley a Sunday night. I was going out with Scott and cos he didn't smoke I didn't smoke as much as normal (we had just started going out and I was all trying to look good). One Sunday night whilst watching a film I was craving one so much that I had to have one. I couldn't find any so I fished a docker out of the ashtray.
You know when you imagine what you look like to other people? Well I imagined what I looked like and I didn't like it. Fortunatley I got the flu the next day so I could't smoke if I wanted to. Then Scotts mum had a heart attack (she smokes like a right chimney) and seeing her in hospital finally sorted it. Ever since then I never even fancied one....well, I did once when I was nervous but I resisted. So I suppose Scott kind of did do something for me in all the years I went out with him after all.

I started off on Marlboro Reds at 17 at the "animal house" at school (where the smokers went) when I was going out with Whitehead. Then went to Lucky Strikes (y'know, to be different). I then had a brief flirtation with Consulates whilst drinking in the Nags. That didnt last long. Embassy No 1 claimed me from 19 till I went folowing New Model Army, thats when I started on rollies. Probably did rollies for a year, back to No 1's again (I remember the day I dropped out of Uni, I stormed out of a meeting about my dissertation sat under a tree next to the Pavillion. Smoked one and a half boxes of Embassy by myself in tears until I stopped crying and I had decided I was not going to do my 3rd year by the end of the last box, so I must have been back on them then). Cant remember when I made the change to Marlboro Lights but it was before I came back to Macc. Then I stook to them like every other girl in Macclesfield. Oh, I missed out a brief Lambert and Butler silver stage when I lived in Hove and had no money. But it felt like I was waking up with a pile of bricks on my chest every morning. Think then I went to Silk Cut.I didnt like them and ended up ripping the filters off.

Ha ha, you think you know but you dont know, this is the MTV (smoking)diary of...
Hang on, let me just go and wake myself up. I appear to have even sent myself to sleep.
