    I temporarily lost my taste for cigars when I was going through puberty

    But seriously, maybe you just need a break, or more longitudinally, perhaps you might change your pace, e.g., one cigar every few days or so, something like that.

    Thus far, I've gotten rare flashes of taste. Nothing predictable, and nothing helps. I've taken a week off and still nothing. Switched to water or sweet tea instead of coffee. Wineador, traveldor, bought and smoked at store, nothing. I'm thinking I'll try another in a month. We'll see. I'm currently applying for EMS and/or ER position with a hospital that doesn't allow nicotine usage, period.
    If I do go back to cigars, I may only buy and smoke
    That's sad, but good luck with the position! Sounds like an exciting job!

    Good luck with your new job if you can get in. It sounds very stressful, but very exciting at the same time!.....
    Like my father before me, I will work the land,
    And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

    So, I went 3 weeks without. Fired up an Ave Maria earlier, while taking a break from my guitar. Very good aromas, subtle tastes of woody notes and rich spice. The N bomb, though. OMG. Head spinning a bit now. Heading off to bed, have played so much for the first time in years that my hand, fingers and forearm are all cramped.

    Glad to see things are better. I hope it stays that way.

    Well you must be a better axman than me - I get sick of the sound of my own playing long before my hands give out

    Welcome back to the land of the smoking!

    One week later, another Ave Maria. Immaculate with Colombian coffee. Nice, but again, subtle. Toasty, slightly nutty. Course, I've got a cold that makes me sound like Gunny Highway. Gonna try this on a weekly basis
