smokin’ serendipity
Most of the (12 or less) people who hit this site are people I know. Others land here from random searches on Google or Yahoo or whatever. Still others come from who-knows-where. This last group, people I’m not sure if I know and I’m not sure how they got to my site (not big on detailed tracking around here), intrigues me and makes me look more closely at the stats I do have. I saw that someone landed on this post from 2003 about quitting smoking. It’s serendipitous, if I’m remembering that word right, because I’ve been thinking a lot about quitting this past year. I’ve talked to some acupuncturists and some naturopathy enthusiasts. Last week I even bought Renew Life Smoker’s Cleanse, but I just keep staring at the box and rereading the instructions.
So here I was today, screenfront (my new word for being in front of a computer), just strolling through site stats in a pseudo-narcissistic and curious fashion, and I hit that page. About quitting smoking. And about making 2 lists: Reasons to Quit, and Other Shit to Do Than Smoke. I don’t know if I ever made those lists (also too lazy to look either on my site or in any journals), so I’ll think I’ll do them this evening.
Note to Universe: I’m accepting more signs that I should quit really soon. All submissions should be made as obvious as today’s. Thanks.
Edit: One of the sites I went to look at just after publishing this was today’s Penny Arcade comic. About a Quit Smoking game for Nintendo DS. Keep ‘em coming, Uni!
