I tried to quit smoking a few times, but the bottom line is this - I don't want to quit.
I like smoking.
I like the taste.
I like the experience.
I like the feeling.
I like having something to do with my hands when I talk to people.
I do not like:
cancer
emphysema
burned out tastebuds or smell whatevers
dry nose
flem in the morning
the stink
the mess
the cost
being treated like a leper with STD's because I like doing something that other people do not approve of
Fortunately, a friend of mine was able to suggest a solution...
ecigs!
I love these. I don't think I've discovered anything I like this much since puberty (OK - slight exageration. But still fun).
The way they work, in case you are dreadfully last century, is this: My ecigs (Mistic, from Walmart $14 for a set) look like cigarettes. The "tube" which would normally hold the tobacco, is a rechargable battery. It screws into a little tube that looks like the filter, but which is actually a little device that holds ejuice (a mixture of nicotine, water, flavoring, and an oil).
When I draw on the "filter" the battery starts, produces heat which vaporizes the ejuice - it doesn't burn - the liquid becomes a vapor - and I draw it into my mouth and lungs. Tastes great like a cigarette should!
The carridges are replaced as needed (the package estimates that 1 cart. = 1 pack). When the carts are empty, they can be refilled with all kinds of flavored ejuice, which range from various tobacco flavors to girly drink flavors (I got one called "G Spot" that I'm dieing to try out...). You can even get ejuice without any nicotine, if you just want to enjoy - and I do mean enjoy, because the flavor really is much more enjoyable.
And - no second hand smoke (it's water vapor), no clingy smell, nothing for people to rag on me about if I feel like Vaping in the car...
And no burning means that 99% of the bad stuff is gone. This is the way all vices should work in the 21st century... I'm glad I've lived to do it - it feels so Star Trek - y.
