#soberoctober day 2: out with the mold

Keep catching myself reaching for my e-cig, locked far away. Bought seven types of gum to try instead. “5 Watermelon” package indicates eating the whole pack results in a laxative effect, neat! Considered buying some nicotine-free ecig liquid but that feels like cheating…
