Let's talk about smoking.

I've linked before to my favorite article on smoking (from Salon) but it never hurts to show it to new people, I guess. I suppose it's possible that someone (Oscar Wilde? Dorothy Parker?) wrote something better about smoking (and probably shorter. And probably rhyming.), but I still love this essay.

I was thinking about this article today because I've started a Bad Habit. I've started chain-smoking on my walk to work. When one cigarette is almost out, I use the butt to light the next one. And today Mark posted about dreaming of smoking in the bathtub... and suddenly I want to smoke IN MY APARTMENT. Heavens no!

I don't think I've ever smoked inside anybody's apartment. It just seems like some kind of inviolate law. Don't smoke in the house! Don't smoke in the house! I think I'm going insane.
