Before I started smoking, I always thought "Why can't people just quit it ?",
but ofcourse I was young and naive. Clearly I was not aware of addiction. And so I
would annoy (as I now realize) my peers with those "Why won't you quit ? You just
stop smoking and that's it." statements. And they would say "You won't understand,
you're not a smoker", and now I get what that means. It really is fascinating how
nasty habits and certain activities bond people together without them even realizing it.
As I sit here and think how to continue this, which i started writing because I was
trying to distract myself from the fact that I really want one of them sweet sweet
cancer sticks and that I don't have one. Being broke is one the cons of being
unemployed but that's another topic, another day.
