Smokers…
Posted on March 29, 2002 by Christine | 6 Comments
Yesterday when I wrote about the 10 people outside smoking at 9am, I forgot to mention that I don’t work with any of the people I saw outside. I have plenty of co-workers that do smoke, but all of them put in above and beyond a 40 hour work week. I’m totally cool with that – even if they didn’t. It just amazes me, as a non-smoker, that a cigarette could even be enjoyable that early in the morning. Today there were only 3 people out there at 8am…

It’s really hard for non-smokers to understand. I am 17 and I’ve been smoking since I was about 13. I’ve tried to quit, but it never lasts. Mt parents and I have even tried to quit together, but it doesn’t work. But if you were a smoker you would understand why cigarettes are enjoyable that early. Most of the time their is very little pleasure in smoking, just what your brain tells you. But there is something about smoking in the morning. Especially the first cigarette of the day. Because you’ve been sleeping, and haven’t had a cancer stick in a long time. And after you hack up some delicious phlegm and maybe drink some coffe, you want a cigarette. Some advice: if you’re going to smoke because you want to, go right ahead, if you’re doing it for anyone but yourself, you’re living your life the wrong way. It may, at times, be about someone else, but remember it is ALWAYS about you.

Yep! It’s just simply the fact that your body hasn’t had nicotine in 8 plus or minus hours while sleeping, so the first cigarette in the morning is a necessary one to calm that physical addiction craving.
