Dear Diary
So, I’ve had a break from work since Thursday, and I have not gotten drunk, gone out dancing, or caused mischief of any kind. What have I done?
Went to the Australian Open and watched the match between Serena Williams and Nicole Vaidisova, and part of the match between Kim Clijsters and Maria Sharapova (though, I [...]
Has it really been a month since I posted in this blog? How time flies!
So, it’s been almost 2 whole months since I’ve quit smoking, which is absolutely AWESOME, especially since I’m no longer bothered by cravings, and the sight/smell of others smoking has no effect on me (well, the smell is actually making me [...]
I went and saw the second last ‘La Clique’ show for the Melbourne run of the Spiegeltent last night…and to say that I was completely blown away by the show would be an understatement.
If you ever have the opportunity to see this people - do NOT miss it. It may be human circus, but it [...]
So Sunday marked my 2 week anniversary of no cigarettes…except it didn’t taste too sweet as I cracked on Friday as I left work and sparked up.
And took a drag and recoiled in disgust - it tasted horrible! Nonetheless, I wasn’t going to let the taste put me off after craving it for so long, [...]
1. I’m annoyed at the fact that the week has been full of pretty nice weather, and the weekend (my time off) will be utterly craptacular.
2. I’m STILL giggling over an old aquaintance who seemed to think he was of a lot more consequence to me than he actually was. Mind you, when I read [...]
It’s been over a week since I’ve had a cigarette.
I faltered today. After a stressful weekend and only 3 hours sleep, by 3pm I was absolutely dying, and so dashed out of the office to have a cigarette.
Halfway through, I lost interest and butted it and trashed it. It just didn’t have the same effect [...]
It is my observation that when leaving a voting booth with an armload of stuffed toys, people will look at you veeeery strangely.
Perhaps I should have bought them after I had voted…
It’s not my fault that Mr. Woofy only plays with soft toys.
This is my 5th full day without having placed a cigarette between my lips.
The cravings are driving me mental, but I’m not budging from my resolve to do this cold turkey.
Help me…*sobbing*
So, I’ve decided to officially quit smoking. True, I haven’t really smoked since coming down with this infection last week, but making it official means that I’m not going to carry around any cigs/lighters and try going cold turkey. Oooh, scary! Why so scary? Because I started smoking from the age of 15 - as [...]
No, not Naomi Wolf’s book (which I’m yet to read, shameful as that admission is), but my own ponderings on the subject. What’s brought this on? My recent trip to a day spa with a girlfriend. I went and had a pedicure and a full bikini wax, whilst she had a pedicure and a moisturising [...]
