(Psssst! Cue the music!) (What?) (Yeah! Right there! Press the button!) *click…click, click* (It’s not working?) (Well… kick it!) *…Bonk!* (Sigh…) (guess we’re doing this without music…)

Ahem… Please imagine a grand fanfare!

After fifty years as a smoker,

I am one full year tobacco-free!

(Throw the confetti!) (What?) (Yeah! There! Pull the string!) (It’s not working either?!?) (Well…I don’t know… kick it!) *Bonk!* (Sigh.) (Alright! That does it! No more gadgets for announcements!)

Please imagine a burst of confetti. Multicolored.

And…maybe some 🎈 balloons.

Please note that I do not recommend Acme Announcement and Party Supplies! Although, that skinny coyote gave me a pretty deep discount…

Nope! No more announcement gadgets! That stinkin’ confetti cannon just went off in my closet! And I can’t get the “music” to stop. It keeps playing, “Meep! Meep!” at odd intervals! (Oh! Wait…maybe that’s the “soundtrack to life” playing in my head…) 😜

Just a little fun for a Sunday afternoon. Feel free to post your “I Quit!” stories, and/or your congratulatory remarks, memes, firework effects, confetti, etc. Or, just vote in the poll. Please be nice, we’re celebrating here!
