Cigarettes @ MindSay

The night before last I took a Hinder CD and a Disturbed CD, hopped in the car, opened the sun roof, drove to Bel Air and blasted "Indestructible" and "Inside the Fire" among other amazing songs.  I forgot how much I loved going out at night.  Mark was at work and for some reason, I feel very uneasy being at home without him... Not super very... I'd just rather be out...  Even if it's by myself.  Which is okay. :)  Going to Kohl's was a lot of fun... I didn't get much, just a few bras that actually seem to fit me (YAY) and some pj pants and boxers for Mark.  He seems to love them, and that makes me happy. :)  I don't get out too much, unless it's going to work.  And it just seemed... free-ing.  Just going out... doing what I love to do (smart shopping at Kohl's. ;) )  and I even got to have half of a guilt-free cigarette.

That reminds me... I think someone swiped my cigs yesterday.  They're GONE!  Either that or I left them on the bench... probably the latter.  God damn it.  But I need to quit... So does Mark.  And as soon as he starts his chemo on tuesday that'll be it for me... I  need to be strong for him... and I can't wave a cigarette in front of his face when he's sick and dying to have one and he knows he can't... or just doesn't have the stomach for it but he still wants one.

I close at Target tonight... which isn't that much of a problem.  2-10:30... typical close.  Same as last night.  Hopefully tonight will be better though.  Last night was just short of insanity on the front end. hahah  It'll be fun, I think.  It should be soon as soon as it gets darker, and there will be plenty of people in costume. :)

I'm out of cigarettes. And I'm in the mood for deep, semi-drunk philosophical discussion (my theory--and so far, I've not been proven wrong--is that semi-drunk minds speak sober hearts. If you take it too far, you'll just say anything to be saying something. But a little liquor losens the tongue and makes it easier to speak your mind). And that invariably requires cigarettes. And a charged phone. Damnit. On both counts. Ah well...sleeping in is a good thing. Oh, and I promise. I'll have the second part of chapter one posted soon. Probably Friday. I know you're all oh-so-anxiously awaiting its arrival...*rolls eyes* I flatter myself in thinking someone actually reads it, but I know that for the most part, it's just for my own benefit.

Because it's the small things that make life wonderful sometimes.

  As a smoker, I am already heralded as a horrible, terrible, person who is polluting the world with my habit.  At 28 years old, having been a smoker for about 12 years, I have learned to deal with that.  Secondhand smoke, now thirdhand smoke-which is ridiculous, btw- it has really gotten out of hand.  But that is not why I am on this rant today my friends, today I am spouting off about taxation without representation.

  Every morning, around the United States, people like me light up cigarettes.  We smoke them in our homes or anywhere else we may be allowed.  Also like me, they don't feel that it is the worst thing they can do to themselves, nor do they WISH to stop any time soon.  There are also people who pour whiskey into their coffee mug and head off for work, as teachers, doctors, lawyers, or stockbrokers.  Well recently, one of these two types of people were targeted for an unjust tax.  JUST ONE!  "Sin Taxes" alone seem unfair to me, but to single out one, and the healthier, more legal of the two at that!

  Smokers (in my area) are being forced to pay up to $7 per pack, where this time last year was up to maybe $5, or when I started buying cigarettes (10 years ago) $2.  Tell me one product (other than gasoline-thats a whole 'nother rant) that can show an inflation like that, without an actual cost to back it up.  The people will quit smoking.  It will cost us too much.  That's when a real change will be seen in the economy.

  Cigarettes are just like any other product.  They have a chain.  A Farmer grows tobacco.  That tobacco is distributed by a second party to a processing plant.  Other shipping outfits and factories keep their employees paid along the journey to the final stages- when shipped again to distributors.  The product must be advertised, marketing people sell it to the stores, the product is then shipped to the stores.  If a vast majority of smokers will quit, an unimaginable number of people WILL lose their jobs.  Its as simple as that.

  Not only will unemployment skyrocket, but these new "taxes," which supposedly fund healthcare for children (though not the children of smokers, or the smokers themselves,)  will now go unfunded.  Then where do the healthcare dollars come from?

  Even if that worst-case scenario doesn't take place, the fact that smoking costs so much is making smokers cut back in other places, that they shouldn't be made to do so.  Healthcare (since we can't afford insurance) groceries, bills, anywhere the $$ can be saved!

  Taxing tobacco because its unhealthy.  Whats next, candy tax? soda tax? fatty food tax?  Come on, folks- this is wrong and EVERYBODY knows it.

 

thats all for now
