Not So Much for Me

BBC commented that one ounce of pipe tobacco seemed like a lot.  I guess it is all a matter of perspective.  For me, one ounce a week is a significant reduction.  Typically, I have been smoking on average 4 ounces of pipe tobacco a week.   There have been times earlier when I have been stressed when I would even smoke 6 ounces a week, but that was several years ago.  

One ounce a week is definetly a decline, and I notice it quite a bit, but that I think is the point and purpose (I hope).  I am trying to regress successfully to being a non pipe smoking person by "unlearning" my previous patterns of consumption.  I am now picking and choosing times I really would like to smoke my pipe far more carefully, and I hope as I progress to find I have fewer and fewer "really want to smoke my pipe" times.  That is my current working theory.  I hope it is not just a pipe dream... pun intended.

    Even if you manage to stop smoking you may still always want too, it's a curse.

    I'd give it up for sex. :-)

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
