78 hours since my last cigarette. I've been chewing gum because of this annoying taste in my mouth. Not as jumpy today as I was yesterday -- day 3 is always the hardest for me.

This nicotine patch stuck to my chest seems to be helping.

I keep tugging on my beard under my lower lip -- I don't know what to do with my hands or this oral fixation-withdrawal. (That was not meant to be an erotic sentence...but then again, there it is.)

I think 3-days is when the nicotine half-lifes down to nothing, but then there are days after that while the nerve synapses complain about the lack.

Then again, I'm on the patch thing, so I think I'm getting some sort of maintenance going on.
