EJsGirl, it was all about being hanging out in bars after work with friends and thinking (again) that smoking was cool. Stupid, huh? I managed to smoke for about another 8 years before quitting this last time.

It took some getting used to, just like the first time.

That’s how freakin’ addictive those things are - I’ve had about two cigarettes in my whole life (while drinking, of course), and I _still_ dream about smoking. If it weren’t toxic, expensive, and smelly, I would be smoking in a heartbeat.
