Happy Birthday and Thanksgiving. Sounds like quitting cigs would be a great birthday gift. Welcome to ECF.
Welcome to ECF! This is the best place to learn all about the most successful way to get off the stinkies for good.
Be aware that quitting cigs is not black and white. A lot of vapers, myself included, tapered off cigarettes. It's not hard if you keep in mind your decision to quit. I, personally, didn't want to quit smoking. It just happened after a couple weeks using a personal vaporizer.
Please do not be daunted by all the choices of variables of vaping. Start slow. Educate yourself, here, on ECF and Youtube.

Happy birthday, happy Thanksgiving! I quit analogs (my brother calls them dirt sticks, which is fitting) a week and a half ago and really haven't missed them. It's great to have a puff or 2 when I have the craving then stop. No more smell, no more being out of breath. Wonderful decision.

Great!! Give yourself an awesome birthday gift and get started on vaping. I've been doing it a little over 2 months and have not had any urge to fire up a cigarette... I smoked nearly 35 years. Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving!!! 
Yes, happy b-day! And I second what Dougiestyle said above. For me, vaping "crowded out" cigarettes. I had NO desire to quit -- just wanted to try out vaping because a friend mentioned what incredible flavors she had found. Then one day (one week later), I was out of smokes and when I weighed getting in my car and driving out to the store, versus just vaping, I decided to keep vaping. I also told (and a year later continue to tell) people that I may go back to cigarettes one day. This has unloaded the whole thing for me-- the subject of quitting had become VERY loaded for me over the years, particularly given all the pressure friends and family were putting on me to do it. In the end (and this is the beauty of the thing), I never really quit smoking, I just started vaping. That I haven't touched an analogue in over a year and have no desire to ever again is simply because I found a more satisfying choice. And the key word there is choice. Vaping has provided me a choice where I felt had *none* before.
Good luck to you. Just keep sampling juices and equipment widely until you find something that you really like... and then look for something even better. Next thing you know, you may not really care about cigarettes or quitting... you'll just have found something better -- and a great community of people to talk with about it.

Happy birthday and thanksgiving. I'm a returning to vaping user myself. First time around it took a couple of weeks before I was totally off of cigs but it was good. I got stuck with no juice on a trip and ruined myself but here I go again. Anyways good luck and don't try to quit smoking just vape and smoke and in my experience I tended to vape more than smoke and eventually I was completely off of cigs and only vaping.
juki, best of luck to you! That's a wonderful bday present to yourself!! I wish you a happy birthday and a seamless, painless transition! Vaping allowed me to easily quit a 47 year smoking habit; absolutely amazing!! Keep us informed of your progress!!
Happy birthday and happy Thanksgiving! I think quitting smoking would be a very suitable birthday present and you'll get a lot of support here! Just don't be hard on yourself if you slip up now and then. Lots of people here like to say "it's not about the cigarettes you smoke, it's about the ones you've avoided" or something that that effect.
