I quit dipping yesterday...

For 8 hours yesterday I was tobacco free. I was on a mission to quit the filthy habit of using smokeless tobacco. About 2:20 PM Eastern time I couldn't take it any longer and I cracked. I bought another can of delicious Copenhagen Long Cut. Yummmy! I felt so disappointed and so flippin relieved at the same time. I wish I had a stick of gum instead. I knew that I had a softball game that night and I was going to be around the game and other people dipping so I justified the purchase. I lost this battle, but the war is mine.

While I am on the topic of softball I feel the need to gloat a bit. In our Tuesday night games (doubleheader) I went 8 for 9 with 3 home runs. We won both games. It was a break out evening for me since I had hit zero home runs all last season. I think I finally found my softball swing.

I am getting dinner bought for me tonight by the Quality Inn sales representative. This is because I send them about $5,000 worth of business a month. Not by bringing hookers in to screw, but by the reservists who come in to drill. I have to go.
