Cigarettes, Fudge rounds and a showdown

Postby falisamarie » June 8th, 2006, 8:22 am

I thought this was funny and wanted to share with you guys.

Yesterday morning my hubby announced to me that he was quitting smoking and wanted me to help him so I agreed. When he got home he went to his "secret stash" which I had gotten to before him and had taken his cigarettes and put them in my pocket. Well he asked me for a cigarette and I told him NO! Well the he TOLD me to give him one and again I said no. Then he moved on the DEMANDING I give him one and again I said no. Well he got really angry and grabbed his keys and told me he was going to buy him a pack so I ran to the pantry and grabbed a Little Debbie fudge round and told him if he smoked than I was eating the fudge round.

My kids were freaking out watching this whole scenario unfold. My kids were begging me not to eat it and my son Kevin even had the phone in hand ready to call Jan my HA. My husband was looking at me saying "you wouldn't dare" and I told him just to try me. Well this standoff lasted about 10 mins and he did not smoke, well right then at least.

He did have a cigarette later but no, I did not eat the fudge round.

HA!!!! EXCELLENT WORK!!!

It is good for your husband to know that for you that fudge round is no different than a cigarette to him, and BRAVO to him for believing in you too much to mess it up.

What a great story!!!

Great job Lisa standing your ground. I can just picture the stare down. Your husband knows how far you have come and he knew he couldn't be responsible for you eating that fudge round.

Back when I was a kid my dad used to smoke. I remember me, my brother and my mom trying to get my dad to quit smoking. He used to smoke in the basement. My mom gave me and my brother each a cigarette and she took one too and we told my dad if he didn't quit smoking we were going to smoke all his cigarettes. I think I was about 10 and my brother was a teenager. It was brave on my mom's part to give us kids cigarettes but it made an impression on my dad and soon after he got hympmatized (sp?) and never smoked again. It also left me and my brother with the lasting impression of how bad it tasted. Yuck!
