ROFL, or, that disapproving "look" when he asks "have you quit smoking? we need to get you to quit smoking".

This is such a cool thread!
Aside from the obvious health, financial, and such, the single biggest thing I miss the least is the strategical madness it takes to know when and were you will be able to "enjoy" your next ciggy. That feeling of anxiety when you realize that your running low, its late at night, and there will be no sleep until you are safely tucked in bed with a fresh unopened pack watching over you.
Looking back I feel like a complete idiot..

Replaced by knowing there will be no sleep until you are safely tucked in bed with the latest shipment of juice on the kitchen counter watching over you.
Just make sure you've got backup batteries, atomizers or cartomizers, and juice though.
Another little thing that's changed for me . . . my thinning spot on the top of my head is not as thin anymore. Cigarettes must really have something to do with baldness!
Being able to select any and every flavor you could think of!
Not waking up and standing on the porch every morning in your "Smoking Coat" just to get a morning fix (who else had a coat or something just for this purpose?)
Waking up in the morning to smell breakfast on the table!
Not stopping at the shell station after work every night and the cashier having 2 packs set aside for you.
Not having to change in the car right before a job interview and come in reeking like an ashtray and cheap cologne

Not lighting the .... up in the dark. No more ashes in the most bizarre places in my truck!
I love that I don't have to roll the window down while driving to vape. I love that I don't have to try to light a cigarette off the stove when I can't find a lighter. Also, not burning my bangs down to my scalp with a cheap flamethrower lighter (yes, that happened!). I love I can breathe easier, I don't smell like smoke, and I'm no longer funding Big Tobacco. Plus, my mom will let me borrow her fur coat (no hating, please, it's vintage) now that I don't smoke.
My boyfriend recently went to Singapore for a business trip. He brought back packs of those cigarettes with the disgusting pictures. In case anyone is curious, this is what they look like:

The pic is a little blurry, but trust me, you don't want it in focus!

I have a hobby of selling purses, jewelry, and lingerie online and I like that I no longer need to worry about my product shipping out smelling like smoke. I was accustomed to using Febreze in my packages, now I don't have to. But the most amazing thing for me is not having to feel like a Leper anymore! I expect that soon in addition to the money I am saving on analogs, I will also get a rate reduction in my Auto and Life Insurance policies. Life is good since I quit. Great thread BTW.

Not burning my eyebrows from the heat on the stove eye because I cant find a lighter and not having to find the longest .... in the ashtray because I dont feel like going to the store. I cant wait till Monday when my PV comes in the mail (as I dig through the ashtray). The only thing I am going to miss about smoking is the "I just hit the lottery" feeling when I find an unopened pack under my carseat when I clean the car out.

^^^ Like! LOL
Not worrying about falling asleep with a cig and catching the bed on fire!

Nonsmoker discount for household auto and life insurance. Add that cost saving to the sig generator number and you can rethink buying that expensive REO or ALI'I, you just saved more than that on insurance LOL.
Good point Cinnamon. I will order my juice and not read the expected arrival date. Now there is nothing I will miss about smoking. Thanks Cinn!
Freedom of choice - Don't have to worry any more that my "favorite brand" is going to become too expensive to buy. Not to mention now having so many "favorite" flavors to enjoy.
Not having to go out in the heat/cold/elements to cough/hack/wheeze my way through stinky sticks.
Not freaking out wondering if our last pack will indeed get us through the night.

One of my fave things about vaping is the yummy flavors! I also love you list. I love that I don't have to freeze my tush off to smoke now.
