Our sincere thanks to the Rachel Ray show e-cig segment 3/4/10, and especially to ECF! We can stay in our apartments, thanks to vaping. There were about a dozen of us out of 103 apartments who were told that after 5 years, we weren't allowed to smoke in our own homes come May 1. We're all 70 years old or more, including a blind veteran. Four moved. I have a Pulitzer Prize photojournalist ready for the blind vet story.
The managment company says they're going to be building us a smoking gazebo. Price keeps going up from $10K to $14K, so we assume it'll have a gold roof. However, even in the city, we have coyotes -- and of course, criminals. Wonder how they'll like housing the homeless in their gazebo. We had a daylight shooting across the street a couple of weeks ago. Also, it'll be built between two wings of the building. Can't you just hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth when the wind is right and the windows are open? I can hardly wait.
I have one analog left. Think I'll bronze it after smoking for 57 years. Frankly, I didn't want to quit at all, but it was cheaper to go to e-cigs than move. Social Insecurity, you understand. Ordered still another air purifier, bought more Febreze, opened the windows to the spring snow. In other words, the place smells like a French brothel. However, I don't want to become a liar or a hypocrite, so e-cigs it is.
My habit tells me I can smoke on the patio of the local sports bar, but my head tells me, "Hey, what for?"
Neighbor came up this morning telling me that "all of a sudden" her apartment smells of nic. She lit up an analog this morning by mistake, but we had a flavor tasting here, so she's now totally on e-cigs, too. Since we're smoking 24mg. nic or more, we're not climbing walls or hitting each other.
Cignot has been incredible with us, taking us on as a cause. Vicky and Terri have been so good, and they need to be thanked. Now the neighbors who bought $200 kits at the local kiosk are knocking at my door, asking me to order from Cignot. (Revenge is sweet, eh?)
I'm venting, OK, but you former smokers know how stressful it is to quit, even when you want to. Quitting because someone has an eviction notice in their hand isn't exactly an incentive.
Have hidden the lighters, washed the ashtrays. Have my various 510s in conspicuous places, and am ready to get my scoreboard. Figure I already saved the price of a couple of sampler bottles of flavor since I was mostly vaping yesterday.
Flavors. Read all kinds of e-liquid reviews from Big, Tough Guys who looked like bikers. Blueberry? Cheesecake? We figured we didn't like frou-frou stuff like that. Wrong. Big time. Asked Cignot to suggest the first ones, and boy, are we hooked. Still have to try a flavor we don't like.
We even tried snus. Not bad, but nothing compared to e-cigs. Might use them on a plane.
It took us a while to see the sense of e-cigs, but after all, it was our choice at midnight last night. The world isn't going to end because we have lovely e-cigs instead of analogs. I think we won -- over anyone who was twisting our arms.
So thanks, ECF and all the people who post threads that have kept the sheriff away from our doors. You can't imagine how you've helped.
