Day 24: Still smoke-free, busy

Sorry for the lack of updates! I’ve been very busy but I can proudly say that I am still smoke-free and things are going quite well!
A few weeks ago, my Crown7 e-cigarette’s batteries started crapping out on me after only a few puffs. I dropped Crown7 a line and without issue, they sent […]

One week and still smoke-free!

I successfully got through the weekend without a cigarette. The first few days — as mentioned in my previous entry — were pretty easy. The mix of the patch and the e-cigarette seemed to work out very, very well. I had a few rough moments over the weekend while consuming alcohol or […]

My first few days of quitting smoking - So far, so good!

So far, so good!
The past 4 days since I quit smoking have been going very well.  Mixing the patch with the e-cigarettes seems to work extremely well as I have very few cravings.  I also feel like I have a ton of energy and my mood is surprisingly good.
I’ve not slipped up but I will admit […]

Here goes! Day 1: Nicoderm CQ + Crown7 e-cig

I’ve begun my 2nd attempt at quitting smoking.  As mentioned in my previous entry, I’ve decided to go with the patch and e-cigarette method — a method I am sure hasn’t been tested much if at all before.I got a late start today.  In all actuality, I think it’ll be a good thing — I […]

Giving quitting another go with the help of Nicoderm CQ + Crown7

I’ve decided to kick the habit.  Again.With the recent adoption of a new puppy and a new home in good ol’ northern Virginia, I feel I am at a good place in life to give quitting another shot.  I’ve already stopped drinking caffeine — I was drinking many cups of coffee and/or energy drinks each […]

A reply from the President & CEO of Crown Seven

I received an interesting note from the President & CEO of Crown Seven recently.  It is his reply to my review of their e-cigarette and I felt it only fair to post (with his permission) his response.  Here goes:
Jason, Hello, My name is Ron MacDonald and I own Crown7.  I saw your post and […]

My Crown Seven (Crown 7) e-cigarette review

I just received my Crown 7 a few weeks ago (13 days after ordering). While I wasn’t pleased with the time it took to get from Arizona to Washingon D.C., I am overall happy with the purchase.
As this was my first e-cigarette, it took me a few days to figure the thing out. It seems […]

The e-cigarette

A few nights ago I stumbled across a site discussing the latest trend:  the e-cigarette.  This is a cigarette, pipe or cigar-shaped smokeless way to get your nicotine and physical fix.  There’s no smoke, just vapor — which means it is legal to ’smoke’ it where cigarettes are banned.
To learn more, check out the wiki:  […]

I’m back!

It has been a few months since my last entry.  Things have been quite busy as Slonky has been doing very well.
On the other hand, my quit-smoking bout hasn’t been as successful.  Shortly after getting off of Chantix for various reasons (mostly the side-effect of sleeping 20 hours a day) I picked the habit back […]
