    This is going to be a long/bad day!

    It starts with the missus turning off my alarm this morning. So I wake up a bit late, have to pack the entire car this morning for two gigs tonight. I was planning to go in early and be able to come home and change and then load the car. Now I gotta go right from work.

    On top of that in my haste to get out the door I left ALL of my snus at home. I have snuff and my e-cig with me, but still a pinch of los really is nice. I might have to go try the new Camel flavors again. I am shuddering a bit at that thought, I am just not sure I can bring myself to breaking my dip virginity today.

    That is a bad day. If it were me, I'd just use snuff for the day. In the future, you may want to pick up some Northerner snus. They're minis, and not very Swedish tasting, but the flavor's unoffensive, and can be stored in hostile conditions. Beats Camel any day of the week. Also, while it only helps for half the year, you could keep regular snus in the car. Cold temps will be like a fridge.

      If you do, I recommend you get Copenhagen Original Long Cut.

        The car fridge occurred to me today as a backup plan. In one way this is a test of the e-cig, and I do have a good deal of two favorite snuffs to tide me over. Funny how not having it with me though is making really jones for a pinch of los. Absence does make the heart grow fonder.

          From what I understand of how different dips compare, I am not sure I am ready for the cope!

            I'd go with Grizzly, personally but spitting sucks.

            I'd buy dip. I don't like the e-cig but it might get me by in that situation. Snuff for the whole day would make me miserable, I think. Too many allergies this time of the year for me. I keep snus in the car in the winter...I've learned this lesson nearly the same way as you. Even in the summer...a less than great snus is better than Camel or Marlboro any day...and certainly better than no snus.

            Hope the day goes well for you.

              This is a rare occurrence for sure. There is a mall nearby with a store I could maybe grab some General from but going into a mall the week before xmas is not synonymous with the term "a quick stop".

                Maybe get a pack of smokes just for today. Good luck whatever you do. (I'd beeline to that mall for the General)

                  I got the E-cig, so it does suffice, really don't want to buy cig cigs if I can avoid it.

                      I should be. It is just icing on a day that started rough. And I just found a bug in a GL distribution subroutine that is an artifact of the check warehouse file key change I implemented a week ago. You know, when it rains it pours. Oh and I am double booked tonight so I have an associate running the sound rig for me for a band while I play a gig in the next town, but I just found out his kid went to the ER so I gotta assume soon it is serious enough he can't work tonight and now I have 6 hours to find a backup I can trust with my gear and can run sound.

                      WHEN IT RAINS IT FREAKING POURS!!!

                        I just got some menthol cartridges for my e-cig, and a 5-roll of Copen OLC.

                          My on me stash right now is my eGo half filled cart, 4 prefilled carts, 1/2 full cartomizer, full cartomizer, and about 2ml of liquid with me.

                          I also have some WOS COC and Toque Absinthe. Oh and an old thing of those Stonewall dissolvables.
