If you've been following along, you've probably been waiting for me to cave. Today is that day. I broke down and bought some smokes.
As i mentioned before, i embarked on this challenge because i thought i should, not because i really wanted to. Truthfully, my goal all along has not been to completely quit but to simply reduce the amount that i smoked. A beer and a smoke after work to chill, for example. More of an occasional indulgence as opposed to a regular occurrence.
I appreciate the support that i've received. You know who you are. I'm sorry i let you down. For the haters, congratulations, i failed. You can bask in this one. I'm down, but not out.
Instead of completely abandoning the challenge, i will only smoke once per day. I believe that this is a goal that is a little more attainable. Perhaps it's where i should've started in the first place.
So, from now on out the title of this challenge is misleading. It is what it is. I've done worse.
