    Hi Billboy15117. You won't find me using the chatboard much, but it only makes sense to reply here. I got a few hits from the smoking comment. If I wasn't obsessed with a series I'm trying to write I would write an elaboration on the subject of quitting cigs. Keep an eye out, I'll try to get around

    Hey, what's up dirtbubble, I checked out your response to the guy trying to quit smoking, and really liked what you had to say. I have had a long eight years of up hill travel and picked up smoking along the way. I am new to Xanga, but would like to give writing a chance. Thanks for the invite.
