Day 97 on the Lighter Side

I am so glad I do not smoke.....on the lighter side.

I no longer have to search my pockets for lighters before doing laundry

Or find a lighter in the washer after doing laundry and check to make sure  it still works

I no longer have to search for a lighter to lite up (always had a hard time keeping up with one)

I no longer have to hold my nose to empty disgusting ashtrays (can you imagine) me a smoker

I no longer have to light up candles to try and  get rid of the smoke odor. (Burn baby burn)

I no longer have to spray my hair with Fabreze (OMG) I did that.  lmho

I no longer have to light my cigarette on the stove or toaster because I can't find a lighter

I no longer have to make excuses for STEALING (I use to say take by mistake) someone else's lighter

I was the cigarette lighter Bandit.

I no longer have to lie about why I have a lighter ("they are for lighting candles darling") (lie)

I no longer have to  hide my lighters so no one knows I smoke.

I am still laughing....I did not realize how funny and ridiculous the lighter side of my smoking was.

 

Can you tell me the lighter side of your smoking or not smoking
