I’ve gone mad, detoxed, cut my hair, packed on 15 pounds, lost 15 pounds, grew my hair back out and earned a few more wrinkles. Hot dang, I’m almost 40.

Okay, so 39 has pretty much sucked. Not really, but it’s been hard. It’s been one full year since I quit smoking. I can breathe better. My house smells cleaner. And I guess I saved some money…somewhere. But to tell you the truth, I still think about them suckers every day. All day. With each cup of coffee. With every code I write. It sure hasn’t been easy.
