I've been thinking a lot about heart attacks lately. I really, really need to quit smoking. I failed miserably while my mom was here. As a matter of fact I smoked MORE than usual. I was reading about Cheney's "scare" and read that he had 4 heart attacks - his first one at 37. That's only 5 years older than I am. Then ODB (Ol' Dirty Bastard) died over the weekend. He was 35 and complained of chest pains before he died. That's only THREE years older than I am. I don't know when my dad had his first attack, but I believe it was in his 30s.

I don't want to die in my 30s. I don't want to have a heart attack in my 30s (well, I don't want to have one ever, actually). I am determined to believe it is not my destiny to die of a heart attack. And if it is, I wonder if I can trick destiny by getting rid of these cancer sticks. Damn it, I'm gonna try. Maybe I can kick the smokes now & then Atkins is only 1 1/2 months away and with that = exercise.

Wish me luck. :)
