I gave up smoking just over 3 years ago
It was difficult, but easier than I'd feared. I put on a lot of weight but then soon lost it - with my outfit for a friend's wedding as the incentive.

I once gave up sex for Lent and managed until Easter Saturday.

I once gave up men totally, hoping for it to last as long as necessary, but at least until Lent was up. Sadly I managed to snog someone on 29th January and then acquire a boyfriend in the March.

Have never given up booze or sweets. I'm on a bit of a diet at the mo but I'm allowing treats.

I replaced
smoking with fisherman's friends.

Now I'm addicted to fisherman's friends.

I like pies
I've not had one for ages.

Unless you count a 4 week out of date mince pie I found in a cupboard at work.

I ate a can of peaches I found at the weekend that had a best before date of November 2007. They were ok as it turned out.

I don't worry about canned stuff so much
I recently found some oragano that EXPIRED in 2003

Canned stuff is ok for quite a few years
Its when you have to cut a slice of bread like a jigsaw piece to get rid of the disturbingly coloured mould before you can make toast that I start to wonder if my life is on the right track.

Then again, that also may explain the exceptionally vivid dreams.

The best part of cheese
is the hard rind. Sometimes I leave that part out overnight and then eat it in the morning.

I'm contemplating a Mr Kipling's apple pie - there is currently a box in the fridge, but they're not the same unless they're heated and served with custard. That's just too much effort.

not bad. Not been on here for ages. I'd say I've had better things to do but I'd be lying.

You must have been up to something

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Wed 19 Jan 2011, 12:20, Reply)

New job
which has proved to be far more boring than I could even hope for. On the bright side its motivating me to go back to University.

Erm... not much else.

Yep. That's it.
