sooo... currently im absolutely addicted to gum. ive gotta have a piece in my mouth at all times. when i mean at all times, i mean it too, practically the first thing i do most mornings is go get a piece. before i eat breakfast, before brushing my teeth, everything. typically, i have about 3-6 packs of gum on me. people are starting to tease me that im on a "pack a day habit" i get really paranoid if i dont have a piece of gum in my mouth.
im on my first day of being gum free! im gonna try to go for a week... wish me luck....
day 1:
going slightly nuts, kept biting my friend.
sucked on certs mints to relieve stress.
went through backpack and school bag and found 7 packs of gum.
picture to follow.
day 2:
downed 4 reeses cups in about 1 minute. >< sugar seems to be helping.
want more, now!
found another pack of gum. that makes 8.
im starting to think about how much i spend on gum. its gotta be a lot.
im getting really paranoid that i have bad breath, which is silly, because im a toothbrushing nut case.
day 3:
actually not desperately craving gum today, but im eating way more than normal. i think i have a need to chew on something at all times.
found 2 more packs of gum in bag. 10 now. ^^;; i do promise to post pics.
day 4:
the cravings have returned...
especially when hungry or early in the morning i can feel this need to nom something.
bite my subby friend a lot.
day 5: cravings slacking off again. found more gum packs, 3 of them, in dresser drawer.
chewed a ton of mints today, seemed to help.
[here imagine picture of many, many, many packs of gum]
day 6:
stayed at home on sofa all day with bestie and "not boy friend",
ate chocolate all day.
bite "not boy friend" almost constantly.
why cant he taste minty yummy?!
*sob*
day 7:
i nearly caved today. i had to go sign copies of this book i wrote a chapter for, so i was really paranoid about having bad breath.
i perceviered though!
*victory dance*
7 days of gum freeness!!
and now i dont constantly crave it either.
*pops bubble* i did really miss it though. =P
[here imagine picture of me with big happy bubble]

tehe, yes mine is quite serious.
i dont seem to be quite so desperate for it though. guess gum chewing works like smoking. =/

This was excellently documented as far as description, and I would have given it 5 points if the pictures had made it onto the page. Congratulations on your fortitude!
Vote for "not boy friend". And sympathy; before my car smelled like cigarettes, it smelled like Juicy Fruit.
