Swaggerly

Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in charge. Two things complete your pirate persona: style and swagger. Maybe a little too much swagger sometimes -- but who really cares? Arr!

Arrgh, indeed. I'm one grumpy Bess today -- one wrong move on my ship and you might be walkin' the plank.

Notable: Eighteen (18) months smoke-free as of yesterday -- though I'll admit to checkin' the gas gauge on the way to work this morning and noting that I need not stop and thinking how that's really a good thing today because it would be a shame to blow it all now, wouldn't it, and I'm not sure I'd resist, and it wouldn't really make me feel better -- in fact, I'd feel a whole lot worse. Arrrggh, okay, I'll stay quit. ; )
Shiver me timbers, I had my first Fantasy Football win this week!
Hang in there, 18 months is too long to give up on. Have some chocolate WW be damned:)
Aaarrgh!

Once you hit the two year mark, I've heard that you barely ever think about smoking again........could it be?
