Well, sort of. It's been 1 and 3/4 years since I quit. It's not a nice round number, and it looks even worse if I express it as 639 days. But, it is a milestone, because it means in 3 months from now I will have passed the penthouse door twice, yay!

Alex.

Thanks very much to all of you!

una-g - I might go in one day, but for now I prefer to meet my friends on the front lawn. I hope to see you around there too!

crazysue - What can I say that makes sense to a crazy person? :p

johnj - This is your celebration too!!! Tomorrow. :D

stav_98 - Thanks for your support.

una - I have no doubt you will be right there with me in no time at all.

karri - I can't say the tights did all the work, but they certainly helped! (Well, that's my excuse) :D

At some point you'll stop celebrating milestones but once in a while a particular day in the month or some event will make you count up the months/years you've been quit and it will make you smile and make you feel proud.... chances are those times it won't be a perfect round number either.... so really every day you don't smoke is a big well done. ;)

Thanks rogue, carol62, showmeonthedoll and bellablue13!

Hey rogue, I want to hear about all these additional ego-boosting things. Bring it on! :rolleyes::D

Bella, you're right. I don't think I would be celebrating milestones quite as strictly if it weren't for the fact I'm reminded of them by being on the forum.

....but 640 can't be divided by 3! 639 divided by 3 is 213 which is my birthday Feb 13, which is also my quit date... that's pretty damn neat if you ask me haha :)
