Cruise paid for - with creative math!

This is the diamond princess. The ship that I will be on in 3 weeks!

I was telling someone my strategy for quitting smoking. My idea was to take the money that would have been spent on ciggy's and reward myself instead. I did do that for the first couple of months very happily. But after a while I forgot. I might have still spent the money, but I stopped thinking of it as a reward.

So anyways. I was doing the math. I spent about $1000 a year on cigs. October is my one year mark. add that to the $571.78 from book sales and taa daaa! Cruise is paid for! ....well .... sort of.
