Day 121 (5-13-11) and I just need to add some things to this. I use my intro as a sort of time line / database I can come back to.

So let's see:

-Mom had a cancerous tumor removed Monday and is still in the hospital not feeling well. I know she will not be around much longer and it is fucking killing me inside. I am working out of town and can not be there with her. That is the worst. My two sisters are there, but I am the baby (at 43) and this fucking sucks!

-Seriously considering looking for another line of work. All the time away from home is killing me. I am missing my kids growing up for the love of money.

-Have some funky looking patches of skin on my face that I will be getting checked out Monday. Yea, cancer runs rampant in my family.

-If I could get my hands on this new guy Oz I would rip his fucking head off and shit down his condescending neck. Hopefully he get's it, but I doubt he will. I will let y'all know how many days he actually makes it.

Hang in bro....... Watched it happen to my mom too. It sucks but you do what you can and take my word, time is a great healer.

1.) Get your face checked for sure

2.) If there's a way, live your life with your kids. I made a big change that way too and made all the difference. No shit, changed everything for me.

3.) I used to go absolute ape-shit over guys like oz (go find some of my old posts for verification) but eventually realized that guys like you are a lot more important and worthy of my time, emotion and sanity. Guys like TCope, gals like Sammy and all of my June 2010 bros taught me that. If I'm going to spend time away from my kids and my wife, it's going to be spent supporting someone like you and not some fuckwadeddushenozzeldicktard like oz!

let me know if I can help with anything and no matter what, stay quit.

Day 142 and doing well.

Mom's surgery went well and she is home doing fine. She is still 82 with cancer, but she is doing fine.

My Dr. did not scream "Oh shit you have cancer", but he did freeze a few questionable spots off my face. I'll just watch those areas real close. I now wear sun screen religiously. Not gonna make myself sick over this though. As with everything else, One day at a time.

Headed to the beach with the family for a week. Sitting here thinking about it, this will be the first time in 30 years I have been to the beach without a dip in my lip. Pretty cool all these new milestones:

First time I took a shit without a dip
First time I jerked off without a dip
First time I cut the grass without a dip

Well you get the picture 'winker'

Stay quit people, it is a great life!

Congrats man, you just made my quit stronger!


I'd be lucky to get 100 situps at this point. I need to take your advise and get my ass in gear and start doing something.

Keep it up!
