I wish I could quit you

Hat tip to Maureen for reminding me of the post title that's been begging to be referenced.

Last week I was chatting with a friend who was going through a break up just as I was starting this endeavour. She noted a parallel between the two experiences, then said that she hoped it wasn't offensive to compare the two. My response was "YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT". It was a comparison I had made over a year ago when ending a relationship. It's the same kind of feeling when you're walking down the street, fighting the urge to talk to or text someone when you know it's a bad idea, as when you're walking down the street, watching tv, finishing a good meal (etc. etc. etc...) and trying to will yourself not to light up.

Trust me when I say doing both at the same time is just about impossible. For the sake of my sanity, I'm taking a couple of days to regroup. I'm going to set a new quit date for Friday, Sept. 4. Hopefully my head's screwed back on right by that point.
