My Zippo Broke

I felt the need to share that. :(

I love my Zippo lighter. It was a gift. I am beside myself with grief....

It's definitely a sign to do something.

I actually wondered if somebody was trying to tell me something.

Then I found a very beautiful disposable lighter that I bought as a souvenir in Temecula. It's killing my arthritic thumb to flick it, though, so maybe there are forces at work.

I'll listen to them when all the other signs I've been getting lately have been taken care of. :)

seems to me real Zippos come with a lifetime gaurentee .. Just send them your broken zippo they should be able to fix it or replace it free of charge ...

Thank you, Vid. I'd forgotten they came with a guarantee. My only problem is...of course...I've lost all the paperwork that came with it.

That's why it's a zippo

You can start from there man. Quite smoking.. :D

Quitting smoking is on my "To Do" list. Really.

You know you have problems when your own doctor says "uh...put off quitting smoking until you deal with all the other things" which in fact, my doctor did.

When the time comes, I'm getting the patches, the classes and support groups, all the cool things the insurance company offers to help smokers quit.

LATE BREAKING NEWS: My husband fixed my Zippo!! Some little doohickey in the lid had bent, not broken. He did say it's fixed "for now," as the little doohickey may break permanently. But for now, my Zippo is back in the land of the...zipping! :D
