Who's giving up smoking this evening?

[Underseer]

I have been quiting and going back to smoking over and over for the last two or so years. It's been absolutely miserable and has had a horrible effect on my waistline.

I'm in the process of trying to quit again. We'll see how it goes this time (grrrr). Of course, it doesn't help that the folks at Natural American Spirit sent me a $10 gift certificate/coupon for cigarettes. The coupon is sitting in my jacket pocket right now tempting me and mocking me. I feel like Jason listening to the Sirens, only I don't have the benefit of being strapped to the mast.

Damn you, marketers! *shakes fist*

Nope, not giving up

The two are not contradictory.

I have never suffered withdrawal as a result from stopping smoking. Therefore I was not addicted. I was always an intermittant smoker- a few weeks on followed by a few weeks off. It's the total "real and long-term" stopping that I wonderedif I could do.

It turned out that it was effortless. See? No addiction.

Only someone with an addiction would smoke, it's that revolting. Either that or they are a kid unable to resist peer pressure.

I tell you something though, I will be glad when smoking is stopped from pubs in July as the damn things kill my throat and chest. However, as Laz once stated, what awful smells are going to replace those of cigarette smoke?

Mostly sweat, booze, and perfume, if here is any guide. Not bad at all.

Ah, the poor boy's clearly never tasted a Romeo y Julieta...

The taste of tobacco is an atttractive one to a seasoned palate. If that's a lie, why is it considered to be a useful taste of character in some great red wines?

Also what about smoking weed? That's something many do on their own to relax from a troublesome week or the like.

Weed isn't addictive, and tobacco doesn't make you into a ******. They are totally different animals.

In other news, legal smoking age is set to go up to 18 soon here. Don't see the new law making that much difference, considering most under 16s get their cigs from friends and family as it is.

I am. Tonight though. Smoke free when I get up tomorrow.
