Don't go now when the quitting's good

Today I went to Birmingham and got hypnotised to give up smoking. I don't know if I could have done it as well without treatment, or whether acupuncture or nicoteine pads or a blow to the head with a hard object might have worked better - I just like being put into trance.

I was hypnotised at 10.30 a.m.. It's know 7.30 p.m., and I still haven't smoked. I've had the urge to a couple of times, but nothing irresistible. The next few days will let me know.

Trivia for Thelemite readers: I was charged £93 for the hypnosis.

I think the best way to quit is to go witness an autopsy on the lungs of a smoker

I dunno - most parts of anyone's body look pretty disgusting once they're on the outside. In my case, the decision to give up was based on calm, rational calculation - I read somewhere that non-smokers have larger penises ;-)
