The diet is going pretty well.

I want to drop 40 pound, so far I've dropped 12.5... I'm a bit ahead of schedule, but that's not a bad thing.

I wish quitting smoking was easier. I need to quit so I'm not fricken broke all the time. But I just don't seem to have the willpower to stop.

I've tried quitting in the past. Nicorette, the patch, accupuncture, cold turkey, nicotine inhalers, the works. I'd like to quit. I really would. That way I can afford to finish building my single speed bike, get a new pair of glasses, and after that, just save the $300 a month I blow on smokes and have a little 'nest egg' for going on a vacation or something.

I guess once the diet is done, I can focus harder on quitting. I dont want to take pills for it, because the side effects scare the shit out of me.

Been having a lot of fun with photography lately too. Seems I can only get out and shoot maybe once a week, but right now I'm ok with that.

Oh and I turn 33 soon. Ugh.
