Man, that was maybe the first day in the history of my blog, that I just completely forgot about it. Just slipped me mind. Had plenty of time to do it, just forgot.

Quick smoke update: doing really well. Today is my week anniversary and although it has been, by far, the longest week of my fricking life, it’s been fine and not so horrible. I told John the other day that I think people don’t quit, because when they do, they have to admit that they could the whole time.

And really, the thing that is bothering me the most now, is my own internal chatter. I would love to shut off my brain for just one day, tell it to be quiet, leave it be. But it’s getting there, less chatter every day, or at least less “smoking” chatter. All the other chatter still remains. So yay me.

The weekend was fun, Friday I stayed in and smoke free and watched Lords of Dogtown which was pretty good, but more than worth it for Heath Ledger, he was hy-larious. Saturday I gave a practice tour for Art Deco and they had a better time than I expected on it, so that was good. Saturday night was date night and John and I went to see Serenity which was great. We had just finished Firefly and there was big big payoff for us, things we had been waiting to see, all good.

Sunday I had many men in my house, not a bad thing. And had a moment like no other that I will attempt to describe, even though it won’t translate well.

We were all sitting around, watching the Bears game. We’re switching around at commercials and we see a karate competition. Some cable show or whatever. While we’re watching I say “do you think anyone does the actual Karate Kid move in actual events?” We went on with that for awhile, moving around the television, and my friend Chris starts talking about the scene where Ralph Macchio and Elizabeth Shue are in front of the water park/miniature golf place, and how that was his town, etc and etc.

Then, I swear, not two channels later, Karate Kid is on, and that exact scene is on, with them standing in front of the water slide. We didn’t see it and forget it, nothing like that, it was just chance.

It was so weird. Truly one of the weirdest things ever.

I wouldn’t have believed it if we all hadn’t been watching the same thing.

I’ve had a few other moments like that in the past few days, is my mind more clear and open to weird happenings now that it’s not all clouded with toxins? Who knows? But it’s fun.

Also watched Saw last night, it started out as a way creepy sort of Seven, then it got kinda dumb, but all in all it was pretty neat and gross.
