Christmas Al Dente

This is a accurate account of a time (smoking & quitting) that I consider some of the darker days in my life. I tried, to the best of my ability, to shed light on subjects and situations that the reader can relate to as a current smoker or as someone who has quit smoking- whether they be in heaven or hell for their choices.

Cigarettes have their critics as you may know, but few, if any, express the joys and needs beyond the chemical additives we inhale every time we light up. It's not always the uncontrollable urges from a nicotine deficiency that causes people to run to the local convenience store at 1 A.M. for a fix; it's much more than that. And that itself is deadlier to me, anyways.
