Thanks Jeni26....I am completely this way. In fact, I know better than to even START drinking if I dont have AT LEAST 2-4 cigarettes. In some ways, I can try to use that to my advantage. If I dont have cigs, I won't start drinking maybe. However, the battle my body fights trying to get BOTH is pretty intense.
If I drink without cigs or run out, I'll resort to fishing out half-smoked cigs from ashtrays in the open courtyard of the restaurant next door late at nite Xo( That, and of course caving in and drunk-driving to the store for a FRESH PACK...and I already have one DUI (two technically...but they were in diff states, and the 2nd state never found out :P).
When I smoke a cig late at nite, and dont want to drink alcohol, I still usually want some kind of beverage to go with it. I've subtly noticed that the REAL ME just wants MILK!! Ice cold low or even non-fat MILK!! Is that weird? I am not lactose-intolerant, and I've found it very refreshing. Its supposed to help me sleep, has some healthy goodies, and it reminds me of when I was a kid
