Since I quit the sticks, my nose has become a lethal weapon. I smelled my neighbor making toast this morning and I live on the 4th floor. The world is a very smelly place! Mostly good, sometimes "bus-...

My triggers were coffee, stress, and existing… so yeah. I almost slipped, but I paused and remembered why I started. I stared at my trigger like it owed me money, then walked away. If you’re reading t...

Hit a high note in the shower and didn't cough afterward. Voice is clearer than ever.
