November 3, 201411 yr But I'm not standing out in the rain, huddled in a group, with my head under my coat trying to light a cigarette but setting fire to my fringe instead. Smokers eh! Crazy people!
November 3, 201411 yr Weirdos. Can't believe I would ever do that!...oh wait a second...... Was that me? What a muppet!
November 3, 201411 yr Short term solution to the rain ...come visit me ! Seriously though with all the smoking bans here in Aus now ... In most places you can't even smoke out doors anywhere covered ... Only smoking in car parks or totally exposed ... I really am glad I don't smoke !
November 3, 201411 yr Author Short term solution to the rain ...come visit me !I would love to! I need more summer! I bought a new bikini this year and only wore it once and that was under a dress! Not fair! Lol
November 3, 201411 yr It's freezing and lashing today, most definitely a horrible day to be a smoker.

Lol It's freezing and lashing today, most definitely a horrible day to be a smoker. Alright .. Just dusting off the spare room - small warning though ... It will soon be 40 celcius ... We call it bikini weather but some of you find it a little too hot ! Oh - and only one spare room so you are calling spoons or odds and ends
November 3, 201411 yr Nice one Pip I'm on my way, I'm not fussy were I sleep, even the bath would do me ;)
November 3, 201411 yr Hope it's not fry your eggs on the ground hot, can't be doing hot coal dance over the ground, burny feet, I'll just have to stay in the pool!!!!

Gets hot - but that is why we invented flip flops . Although we call them thongs !! Can't wait to hear Bakon on that ! Seriously - gets seriously hot here - but that is why we have beaches Bar and awesome wine
November 3, 201411 yr Send the rain to us, we will gladly take it, and congrats on rocking the quit :)
November 3, 201411 yr Trying to light up in the wind and the rain.... Soaked to the skin...ash in your eyes....burning your eyebrows and eyelashes off...trying to get that dam lighter to work.... We sure knew how to enjoy ourselves....
November 3, 201411 yr Yeah we were all motivated alright for stupidity's sake - only a smoker or former smoker can get a match to stay lit in a blizzard, rain storm or worse long enough to light up. What great skills we all aquired to teach our kids.... guess it's back to the other important skills to pass on instead like don't hit girls, eat healthy, don't ever smoke etc..

November 3, 201411 yr We all lost our minds to a damned addiction, some of us for years and Years and YEARS. Thankfully, we came to our senses. You know, today as i passed by folks smoking it was the first time that the smell registered in my brain as a horrible smell, a hideous smell. Up until now, fresh cigarette smoke still smelled sort of good to me... perhaps just reminding my brain of the comfort I once found by puffing to relieve my withdrawals. Smells are like that....very attached to memories. It didn't make me want one or even feel nostalgic...it just smelled inexplicably good. Until today... Today was a milestone of sorts. The smell of a burning cigarette reminded me of nothing nice, nothing comforting. It was a markedly sharp burning to my nose and eyes, smelling just like the poisons that it contains. Toxic. Virulent. Dangerous.
