Reply #109: I smoke, I hate it, I'm addicted

and it hurts when people tell me I stink. I know I stink..I can smell it, taste it, but I don't need to be told about it.

I wonder if anyone thinks about why they smoke. I didn't begin until I was 25 and I grew up swearing I'd never smoke. I wanted to fit in where I worked and smoking was popular there. I've quit at least 4 times through the years and always began smoking again..stupid I know. I'm not pleasant to be around when I quit and I don't want to grump at people or my loved ones while going through withdrawal.
