[Promoted from the diaries by DavidNYC. I can hardly imagine how difficult it must be to quit smoking, so my admiration goes out to everyone making the effort. Unsurprisingly, Big Tobacco is also a big supporter of the GOP, so extra props to the "PQRS" gang for giving up nicosticks. Here's hoping your ranks grow!]
Several of us have decided to quit smoking. Maryscott O'Connor had a great rant here about her reasons for quitting. I'm quitting because I'm tired of giving $$ to republican companies and paying to offset property taxes for the people in my county who own homes (doesn't help me none, I rent).
This diary is a place for other progressives who are quitting smoking to come and rant and rave and generally vent about how much it sucks. Also, maybe we can serve as inspiration to others. I'll try to do this every weekday.
So that I'm not taking up a boatload of Kos' server space, I will delete the previous day's diary and start fresh in the morning.
