I used to smoke a hundred pounds ago....



A friend posted some pics of us at a very, very, *very* young age. Aah, the good old days when I could smoke without a care in the world. I miss you, Tobacco! You were my best friend. *sniff* My such nicely plucked eyebrows, too! So not like the werecaterpillars I have nesting on my forehead now.

People look down their noses at smokers like it's okay to be flaming dicks to strangers. Once when I was standing outside my store smoking, some little kid walked past me and starting this exaggerated coughing, really loud and rude and the parents looked at me like, "See, my kid's smarter than you are." So I said, "Hey, little kid, you think that's funny?" scary as I could, while staring the parents down.Scared the crap out of all of them. So, the moral of this story is, if you're a freakin' wimp who can actually be scared by a 5'4" portly woman, don't let your kid run around acting like a jerk. At least, I think that's the moral. I don't know. Have a cigarette for me. ;)

I didn't quit until my forties, it's been about 12 years. You'll quit when you feel it. I know, no one else can make you quit, it's gotta come from inside.

Man, that sounds similar to what happened to me and one of my friends. We were outside the movies smoking and a couple of fourteen year olds with their mom pulled the same exact thing, BUT they added in that really clever comment that goes along with it; "This is our air too!" So, I very sweetly smiled at the mom and told her she shouldn't let her kids be assholes to complete strangers and that just because we are tiny white women that doesn't mean we aren't psychopaths who will pull out blades and cut her smartass kids. Then my friend started rummaging through her purse and said, "I don't have a blade, but I think I have some pepper spray in here somewhere." They couldn't get out of there fast enough.
