Day 93 - 10/15/13
Trying to quit and crossing lines
My note today was conjured up from two different individuals that commented one yesterday and one today.

First, a quitter commented that they were watching for me to cross the HOF line. That came from a quitter that when he was very new in his quit I reached out to help him along much like other have done for me. This young man probably inspired my quit more than he realizes because I wish that at his age I would have had the mental aptitude to realize that I could quit. Then again if I would have successfully quit way back then I wouldn't have met as many stand up guys and gals as I have on here. JGBTX thank you for letting me help and for reminding me today just how awesome this site is. He is not a man of many words in his intro, but he is consistently posting roll with his group.

Second, a brand new quitter indicated that he was trying to quit. I like many other immediately chimed in to let them know that there is no trying just doing. My late grandfather who I lived with for 5 years and was a retired USMC Drill Instructor and also the man that introduced me to worm dirt once told me that if I mentally prepared to try that meant I was prepared to fail. Although at the age of 11 I had no clue what that meant. Now I have grasped the full understanding of it.

I am one week away from hitting my 100th day, and I know that I have no choice but to continue my presence on KTC as I am not healed. I still get cravings, I still have rage episodes, but the great news is that I have not provided financial support for UST for 93 days.

QFQQ,

Day 95 - 10/17/13
I am gonna call today Whiskey Tango Foxtrot day.

Lastnight I was at a bar in some small pro dip town with Evil Won, we had a couple beers, got to know one another for real (yes he is just as honest face to face as he is on here). While we are sitting there I get a text message from a fellow Duck Fip stating that he is on day 1, no real reason given.

I immediately felt like shit just crashed down. This quitter has my number, and yet caved. This same man has suffered some interesting shit recently yet still would text daily to let me know that he was still quit. Only through text though. Then after the cave comes on-line and posts his day 1 in October 13.

I immediately jump on it in his intro only to get call out today because I didn't send him money when he needed it. Upon reading that I got very defensive and explained that I like many others don't have spare money just sitting around ready to bail anyone out. I am a retired Marine and now work in Construction. Suffice to say I am not shitting golden nuggets and wiping with 20 Dollar Bills. If I were I would spend that much more time on here helping out when I can.

I refuse to let this one individual's poor decision to cave, and lack of judgment on calling me and other KTCers dumbass MFs ruin my day today.

I met Evil last night and he gave me something that has made my journey to the HOF seem more substantial now. My fellow quitters I wish you the best and I apologize if my defensive response this morning upset any of you. However, if you ever call me looking for a loan my new response is FU (thank you KKJLINC and Z for teaching me that simple phrase).

Matt, I forgive you for your angry words. I hope that you can get your head right and get back on track with life as a whole.

I remain,

I had a quitter in my group cave on me right before HOF too! It REALLY hurt and I took it personally. I even thought about running out and buying a can in that moment of weakness. I felt totally crushed. Same thing, dude had my number and no call. He also had caved out and come back before. I then came to my senses and said that MoFo loser wasn't going to rain on my parade. Tough dose of reality here. We are in the minority here posting our promise and staying QUIT everyday and not just "stopping". Proud to be quit with you today!!!

You are a good man pinched don't let a fuckin troll wreck your quit. Keep your ears pinned down and focus on what you have to do. I didn't see anything wrong with what you wrote. Guys like that will try to take everyone down with them I am sure Evil had plenty to say to get you through this difficult time. There are resources available for him he just has to focus on his issues.

He(Pinched) needs his money to fix his CAC and then maybe some butt pool and take you to a hotel room and whip your ass like a bull.... This is sort of paraphrased from todays events... see thread for actual events.

I deal with the "Stoppers" everyday. Being a minority now is crazy for my partners. I once was the evil do'er pimping the Nic-Bitch. Now I am the "Preacher" as I have been called. In my line of work temptation and negativity is at every step. FU is like saying hello sometimes.... I am day 26 QUIT and I will not think twice to call a brother in quit for a helping hand or a kind word but I will NEVER call for a "Loan"....

I am glad u figure out "FRANK UNIT"... It will keep the homeless away too.... LMAO!!

Have a great day!!

Day 96 - 10/18/13
Damn Near Caved DNC

As many have seen the Duck Fips had a caver recently. This individual was one that I spoke to on a regular basis on the phone through text and everything. He seemed to need help, and I was there to try. Asked for more than I wanted to give, especially when stories don't add up. See I am a retired Marine and I have and always will do what I can for my brothers, within reason.

I thank the lord that I was sitting with another veteran who has proven his quit for over a year. Had I not be I may have be convinced that a dip would help me. I also thank God that I have my father and his father's spirit with me. I know they are smiling down on me now. "Pop I told your stubborn ass I could quit when I wanted to!"

I have a HOF coin from that Veteran quitter sitting in my night stand waiting for Tuesday 10/22 to roll around. When that day comes I will place that coin in my pocket and then do the pocket check looking for that thick and beautiful can in lieu of that perpetual pit of worm dirt that I checked for years.

You new quitters take note, your activity on this site is just as critical as the veterans is. You all help inspire and remind all of us what the early days were like and the veterans share the promise that there is more grass in the quit pasture. Just remember that in any pasture there is always piles of shit. Step around or over them, but if you are gonna get dirty dive into the dame thing.

QFQQ,

Been army for 17 years and I know what you mean by doing what it takes to help a fellow brother out no matter what. I can imagine what you are talking about with veterans remebering the early days. its easy to become complacent when you get that far that its easy to forget the pains you went through to get here.

I will be here for you anytime if you need someone else to talk to and thank you for supporting me in this fight of my life.
