    Vaping to fall back asleep

    my underlying medical condition and prescribed meds always wake me several times a night. until recently i literally could be woken up if lucky just once an hour but often up to 4 every friggin hour, not night but hour. it was awful but i came to just accept it as a given. smoking did help some...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    I am pretty much the same in that i clean my equipment daily. every once in awhile life is chaos and i might skip a day but that's rare and even then i at least do a partial clean. it isn't that i like to clean but rather the fact that anything if cared for will last longer and perform better...
