I don't tweet, but I sent my story via a private message through Facebook to the Mass. Legislator, Carolyn. I would have posted on the page, but 10 years of being a closeted smoker is a hard habit to break! I did like some other stories though (baby steps!).
I don't Tweet or Facebook, but this is really easy.

You can just create a Twitter account using a bogus email address.
I used the email address that I have been using for years now to create accounts I don't really want.

And signing up was easy too, as there is a link to sign up when you try to send your first Tweet.
Took less than 5 minutes to sign up, and thereafter each Tweet takes all of 5 seconds.

I haven't had to learn anything at all, and don't even have to know what I'm doing.

Don't be ashamed you used to smoke. Or even if you still do. Be proud of every time you did not!

Oh, if it were just shame that would be easy. I smoked for 25 years and about 10 years ago realized that smokers weren't being treated the same in the workplace, so the next time I started a job, I wore a nicotine patch and didn't smoke. That only made the need to hide it worse because then I heard all the awful things non-smokers say about smokers behind their backs. (You think what they say to our faces is bad! Ha!) Add to that seeing how non-smokers didn't move up in the job, and well ... 10 years later, I'm still hiding it. Perhaps I'll admit it one day once I'm further out from smoking, but I imagine my co-workers would feel like I've been lying to them all these years (um, sort of yeah) and wouldn't take kindly to that either! :oops:
