Quitting Smoking- Day 2: $$$ saved to Obama!

Again, I (xph) am using my girlfriend's account to post this diary.  Tomorrow I should be able to use my own.

As an extra motivator to help me quit smoking I am donating the money I save by quitting to Barrack Obama-  MY FUNDRAISING PAGE.

I made it through what for me is the toughest day- DAY 1!  Thank you everyone that responded to my diary yesterday with words of encouragement, advice and past success.  It really did help me get through that first day.

I am taking up precious diary space with this for a few reasons.  First, using the money I save to give to Obama really helps me- and if anyone else joins in it will multiply that effect.  Second, the support and encouragement really makes a difference.  Also, I would love to help motivate someone else to quit smoking.  Finally, I'd also love to encourage someone else to give to Obama.  Go past the crease if you aren't bored to death already.

I'm going to keep writing because the act of writing itself helps get me through! :)

Like I said, the main reason for this is to give the money I save to Obama.  It would be appreciated if anyone else pledged to the duel cause of me quitting smoking and Obama getting nominated.  However, I would really love it if someone else quit smoking and decided to donate what they were saving to the Quit Smoking for Obama Fund! :)

If you've been thinking about quitting, maybe this is the motivator that will work for you.  It honestly is helping me so far!

Here is where I stand so far.

$25 initial donation in lieu of quit-smoking-aid.
$5 from me for smokeless day 1!
$1 from my fellow bartender for day 1.

$31.:)  (My next $25, and my co-worker's first $5 will go in after day 5)

Thanks again for the support all.  This is fun and is really helping me out!  And for those of you that find this annoying- SORRY!  :)
