It dawned on me earlier that today, the 4th November 2010 marks a fairly significant milestone in my life. It’s been two months today that I speculatively picked up that E-Lites starter Kit and unknowingly embarked on a path that has already changed my life for the better.
Although it was never really my intention to stop smoking cigarettes (well at least not seriously), that fateful passing of the E-Lites stand in a shopping centre on 4th September started a sequence of events that leads to me sitting here, reflecting on how easy it actually was to quit smoking.
The fact that I’m typing this into my blog, on my own website dedicated to the subject shows how much of a life-changing experience vaping has been.
I’ve recorded some thinking out loud I did this morning and uploaded to Youtube.
As in the credits on the video, I truly am very grateful for all of the advice and support I’ve received from the UK vaping community who have tolerated my daft questions on the UK Vapers Forum, in chat rooms, at Vapefest etc. Without all of the guidance, I might not have stayed off the fags this long.
But the fact is I have, and whilst I can continue to enjoy vaping, cigarettes are a long way from my mind. Long may it continue.
Aye – and there are some of us that recognise the “secret” bit of kit… silver vein?? Alpha? Beta? Theta?:)
Aaargh. You know too much!
Another chapter in your story Dave and I’m guessing it will be an interesting video to look back on in the months and years to come. Like you I began with Elites though unlike you they didn’t get me off fags but the point is they led me on to greater things and so (again like you) I don’t knock them either. My two month marker will be 22/11/10, i.e exactly two months from the arrival of my Ego from Toby. Now THAT did hit the spot!
Sorry to hear about the cold but it seems there are positives with that too. I have some Mentholyptus from DV just for that eventuality!
I think your blog is great and I look forward to your next review( the black thing you had looked kinda interesting)
…right ..now ..where is my Woody..and the Cisco thing..that should be a blast
Happy vaping
Mark
Yeah Mark, hopefully I’ll think to record these little milestones as I go along for posterity – it’s big news really.
The “black thing” review will likely happen within the next week or so, time permitting, but it’s a damn good piece of kit 😉
