I hope you stay a longer spell than that.
Hunting down rogue hairs is like nature's own bubblewrap (or is that popping blackheads?).
Blackheads don't pop... they just ooze. Maybe you're thinking of lances or boils.

HEY!!! Wait... HEY!!! No, wait... HEY!!!

C3PX said: Gaffer is like that hot girl in high school that you think you have a chance with even though she is way out of your league because she is sweet and not a stuck up bitch who pretends you don't exist... then one day you spot her making out with some skinny twerp, only on second glance you realize it is the goth girl who always sits in the back of class; at that moment it dawns on you why she is never seen hanging off the arm of any of the jocks... and you realize, damn, she really is unobtainable after all. Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming... Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

Of course, I meant pimples or boils.

So, Ash. How are you holding up?
Pretty good. It's been about 3 and a half days, I've only asked for a drag off of someone's smoke once (they refused, since they knew I'd quit), and there's only been one time when it's "gotten" to me (in my Documentary Editing class, where my professor is the most pretentious douche on the planet. Seriously, he's the only instructor at my school who has ever insisted on us calling him "Professor." And he looks like V. I. Lenin, goatee, bald head, and everything. Sorry, I'm ranting now...)
I've found it helps not to think of it as "I'm trying to quit," or "I'm quitting," the way I always used to when I tried to quit. No, this time, I have quit. I'm a non-smoker. I don't smoke. Not "I quit smoking a week ago," or "I used to smoke, but I'm quitting," or anything like that. Making it sound more "final" really helps a lot.

Magister Pontifex MaximusHe's not the Professor, the Professor is an invention, a disguise so perfect he has forgotten who he is...he's Derek Jacobi...or at a pinch Roger Delgado.
Keep up the good work Ashless.

Token Linguistics NerdHey man, congrats on a healthy decision! Never been much of a smoker myself (I'll enjoy a cigar every now and then when there's something worth celebrating, but personally never really saw the appeal of cigarettes...), but I really wish you well with this. Years from now, your lungs will thank you.
And if you have trouble with the withdrawals, you could always find yourself a Wally-type for further disincentive:

Magister Pontifex Maximus^That's sort of how I started but sadly I knew which end was up (the bane of my life).

Cool. I really like the mindset of seeing yourself as a non-smoker and not a work in progress. That sounds like it should work swimmingly.

aka PancakesI've been going strong. I bummed one outside of class last Friday, but barely smoked half of it before I had to put it out. Haven't really had an urge to smoke since then.

Return to Form, or Forum in this case!!I've surprisingly still been off of the smokes. I've had terrible urges lately, but that is because things are kind of on the shitty side. I just keep fighting it. I think I'll always be addicted, but I choose not to act on it.
"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won't last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you'll be able to project it on a 20' by 40' screen with perfect quality. I think it's the director's prerogative, not the studio's to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

See You, Space Cowboy...I watched lots of Season 4 Futurama with my same-ish-age cousins. Jurassic Bark gets the oldest every time.

To add to that, it helps that cigarettes are quite a bit more expensive than they were.
