It's been almost a year since I smoked any cigs. Last time I did, I had some Newports and my gums swelled up in response. It was not fun. If I do smoke again, I'm sticking to the Djarum Blacks. I'm sure I'll find them somewhere around here.
I think smoking has appealed to me because I have this bizarre oral fixation. When I was a kid, I used to suck my thumb. Then I chewed on pens and pencils. Then I chewed on my mouth. Then I was introduced to pot, but most of the time, I would just let the pipe sit on my lips. I was never a fan of the way cigarettes smelled until I tried Djarum Blacks. Did that for a bit, and now I am back to chewing on my mouth/lips.
Interesting... Before I stopped here I just read an article and watched a video on electronic cigarettes. It was kinda cool. It uses water vapor rather than smoke.
