How I miss smoking!

[DaMulta]

The things I miss about smoking

Paying 5+ dollars or more for a pack of smokes

Wondering if I was going to pay 4 dollars for an off brand of smokes

I miss going to the store in the middle of the night when I ran out

I really miss finding something to ash in.

It sucks now that I don't have to wonder if I ashed in my pop without thinking.

I hate now that I enjoy my food.

I hate the fact that I smell everything now.

I miss my dad being on me about my heavy breathing, and that I needed to quit smoking.

I hate the fact that I don't have to go outside in the heat, and now the cold coming up.

I miss having to sneak in a smoke while out at dinner.

I hate the fact that I don't have to go out side half way threw a movie.

I miss the fact that I don't have to roll the window when driving anymore.

It sucks now that I'm one of those non-smoking people, and not one of the smokers anymore.

I kind of miss not paying crazy high taxes, and helping all those non smokers while they loved to tell me to quit.

I wish my car, and my cloths, smell like cigs.

I miss having ashes everywhere, and how they would get into everything.

I miss having smoke burn my eyes when I let my cig hang from my mouth.

I hate the fact that I don't burn my fingers with a lighter anymore.

I hate the fact that I don't just have two flavors to pick from anymore from different vendors.

I miss my ash tray being used for something else other than change in my car.

 

[anagramit]

Nice! I miss those things too.

 

[CentroniX]

I miss my employees coming in to my office after a smoke break and not realizing how bad they smell.

 

[Bruce H]

i miss lighting up an extra one for the people that did the fake cough.

 

[scott58]

LOL Ash in the coke can. I can't tell you how many times I did that.

 

[Coriakin]

I miss my husband grimacing whenever he kissed me.

I miss waking up every morning feeling like there's a 20lb weight on my chest.

I miss trying to sneak outside to smoke while talking to my clients on the phone because I just couldn't wait any longer.

I miss having to smother coughs while on the phone as well, so as not to distract my clients.

I miss having the knowledge that my addiction would give me wrinkles, yellowed teeth, brittle dry hair, and increased chances of stroke, heart attacks, and emphysema.

I miss having to beg my raid leader (in World of Warcraft, an online game) for a quick afk so I could get my fix and not miss anything. I also miss knowing that I was making 24 other people wait on me.

I miss having to oversalt food so that I would actually be able to taste it.

I miss having to pause dvds no less than twice per movie.

I miss having to stand out in the pouring rain, sleet, snow or other inclement weather to smoke. This includes hurricane warnings, I really miss those.

Oh, and of course, I really miss paying $150 a month on something that could possibly kill me, and would most likely make me sick.

 

[medfedd]

I really miss the always being sick and getting more sick because i kept smoking
I miss coughing up something that looked totally alien every morning
I miss tasteless food the most. all this flavor, i just dont know what to do with myself
and i miss thinking the world was odorless. all these scents, they all suck

... how about "back in the day" when they were 40 man raids. My guild called them DBB's - Dirty ....... Breaks.

PvP was out of the question too unless I could have a constant supply of nic going... which I can now Mwahahaha.

 

[AngusATAT]

Yeah, I was always the guy in the raid that snuck off for a smoke while everyone was getting ready for the boss fights. They always took about 5 minutes or more to get their stuff together and discuss the plan, which was a perfect time to grab a smoke.

 

[rjp44]

I see lots of things I miss.....have to had that I really miss all the ashes all over my keyboard and knowing there must be a lot of them that have fallen down inside.

 

[Moonflame]

I miss the short hugs I got from my 6 year old little girl. The long ones I get, and with more frequency, npw that I don't smell like smoke take up way too much of my time.

 

[kklogan]

I miss trying not to cough while I'm doing massage and working in an alternative health center and getting caught outside smoking by my clients.

 

[AngusATAT]

I really miss my wife telling me that I taste like an ashtray when I give her a kiss after having a smoke.

Ahhhh, memories.

 

[cliff5550]

We miss having to always book a smoking room when we went away for the weekend. Now we book a non-smoking room. Ya know what? They're nicer!

 

[jmvallee]

I miss still smoking even when I have a double bout of bronchitus and can't stop coughing.

I miss emptying trashcans and getting ashes everywhere.

I miss replacing my keyboards over and over because I dropped ashes on them.

I miss waking up during the night to get a nic fix.

I miss my sweet dogs backing away when I smoke.

Plus I miss everything everyone else has mentioned.

This is so cool!!!:

 

[maryjo]

I miss the melodious crackle in my chest when I lay down at night.

I miss the huge lump that I coughed up each morning.

I miss ruining my make-up by getting smoke in my eyes.

I miss the smell in my car when the windows have been rolled up.

I miss my granddaughter saying "I'm gonna smoke when I get big - just like you"

 

[juicy97]

Only $5 a pack??? You were getting them cheap! Their over $7 a pack here! Man I gotta get my husband to stop smoking & start vaping!

 

[juicy97]

Oh yea, I miss having to sleep at an incline just so I could breathe.

 

[AngusATAT]

Only $5 a pack??? You were getting them cheap! Their over $7 a pack here! Man I gotta get my husband to stop smoking & start vaping!

I smoked the cheapest generics I could find, which are about $2.75 a pack, and I am still going to be saving a lot of money.

 

[maryjo]

I don't think I have saved any money yet - I love the gadgets too much. But I get excited about buying new stuff instead of analogs. Its kinda like it is my choice to buy new stuff.
