    NorthernGirl got a reaction from HelloMiakoda in Caved with a stinky   
    So, I ran out of juice (really poor planning on my part) and figured I'd buy a pack of stinkies until my order comes in Friday afternoon.

    Holy grossness!

    I can't believe I smoked those things for 20 years. I have some juices that I don't really like, but even those are better than that nastiness. Disgusting flavor, no satisfying cloud... Blech! Felt like crap immediately afterwards too. Blows my mind that the Feds have their panties in a twist about vaping.

    I can relate to what that Wiki info is talking about. Part of the whole reason I won't go back to standard resistance is because I just can't seem to get that big beautiful cloud of vapor with a SR atty. If I'm vaping, I gotta see the cloud Otherwise, a hit is just not satisfying for me. Weird, I know.

    Lately I've been vaping about 3-5 mls of 6mg per day. How that relates to what I was getting for nic when I was smoking a pack per day of Marb lights, I have no idea. Some days I chain vape at work, just because my boss doesn't care, as long as it's not in view of the public. And at night when I'm hanging out on the computer, I pretty much chain vape. So yeah, I vape pretty constantly all day long lol. It wasn't as bad when the only battery I had wasn't a pass-through. At least I would take a break when it was charging. Now, I have a pass thru and no excuse to put it down :P

    Ever have one of those perfect vaping moments? You come home from work, the mailman leaves you a package containing your favorite juice and some brand new atty's/carto's of your choice. You sit In your favorite chair, the kids are getting along, the hubs is happy, and you are enjoying a perfect vape of the flavor you love best. Ahhh, bliss

    Life's too short to not enjoy the little things

    NorthernGirl got a reaction from PixieVC in Has Anyone Had This Problem With Other People?   
    Ugh, I get this all the time too. This weekend it was my favorite... "Propylene Glycol?!?! That's anti-freeze!! Do you know how many chemicals are in nicotine that cause cancer?!?!"

    Um, no, it's not the nicotine that causes cancer... it's the 4000+ other chemicals I was directly ingesting into my lungs. That person got pretty quiet when I told them that PG is used in asthma inhalers and nebulizer treatment liquid and that VG (PG as well) is a common element in food flavorings that this person probably ingests every day without even knowing it.

    I do get pretty frustrated sometimes when dealing with this, but then I remember it's not about what they think. It's about me and what I am doing for myself.

    I was helping my daughter with her essay about Susan B. Anthony tonight and we both needed a break and a bit of a laugh. My memory decided to cooperate tonight... I just KNEW there was a School House Rock song about sufferage. Youtube to the rescue! God, I miss the good cartoons and things like school house rock.

    Thank god for the internet, because I really feel like my kids are missing out when all that's available on Saturday mornings is crap like "Regular Show" and "Annoying Orange." Oh, and lets not forget "Adventure Time." The cartoons really suck nowadays. To make matters worse, my cable provider did away with Boomerang. At least they used to air old Looney Tunes and Tom & Jerry. I loved those when I was a kid!

    What was your favorite Saturday morning cartoon? Anyone remember School House Rock? What was your favorite?

    It made sense in my head. I've been mixing flavors in my clearo since I started (right now I've got chocolate and strawberries & cream going... yum) and it hit me that I could do this to make better use of all the liquid I have as I try to cut down. Gotta say it again... awesome bunch of people here

    Edit: Woohoo! Ecigexpress has Killa Vanilla in 0mg!!! I am a very happy girl right now!

    My boss only asked that I be discreet about it if I want to vape inside at work. I'm a public employee and I sit at a desk that has a window to the public. He didn't think it would look very professional if I was sitting there puffing clouds of vapor while people were standing there asking for help. Some people have no sense of humor!

    NorthernGirl got a reaction from Uma in Found A Store!   
    I've discovered I'm not really loving vaping the fruity flavors I've bought so far. They're ok, but just, meh. So last night I was desperate to find somewhere around me that sold the stuff so I could get some creamy, sweet stuff (that'll teach me to place an order before a holiday weekend). Then it hit me.... the head shops!!! There's one here in my town. I called this morning and he said he unfortunately had to stop carrying the stuff because the demand in the area wasn't high enough to make carrying e cig supplies cost effective for him.... bummer. That's me... always late to the party lol.

    Google to the rescue.

    There's another head shop about 45 minutes south of me. They carry Dekang juice, but what I don't like is there is really no customization. Their liquids are either 100% PG or 100% VG. The VG only comes in "high" nic strength. The PG comes in "high" or "Low" but only certain bottle sizes are available at the different strengths. They also don't specify what mg's "High" and "low" are. I'm gonna give them a call to find out what the story is before I brave all the dang leaf peepers and drive down there and cross my fingers that whoever is working the shop today actually knows what they're talking about. Gotta get my vanilla fix lol. Another thing that bothered my was their website was saying that VG offers more throat hit than PG... I thought it was the other way around?

    The fruity stuff is ok when I first start vaping for the day, but by the end of the day my mouth is just kinda irritated and blech lol. All of my juice is a 50/50 blend, so I'm thinking there's something in the fruit flavoring itself that doesn't agree with me. I'll just keep slugging down water I guess. I was soooo close to going to the store to buy a pack of analogs last night. Then I remembered that since I started vaping, I can't stand the smell. Probably won't like the taste very much either. Wish me luck!

    Well, either way, my juice from sweet vapes came in today and let me just say... damn! So far I've tried the Orange Cream... yummy and kind of refreshing actually. Right now though I'm vaping the Starbuckets Mocha like it's my job. Soooo good! I'll probably be all tweaked out later from a massive nicotine rush, but I just can't seem to help myself lol.

    Most of the time the shipping should be long enough but some juice needs to be opened or if it's sealed in a way that no air has gotting in. Not saying to open it and keep the lid off that's a different process all together. I personally don't steep but I do buy multiple bottles so it has steeped for weeks in some cases. Can't say with the juices I like I notice much of a difference though? Hope this helps a bit
