I don’t rightly know of any positive reasons for smoking, but there sure are a lot of negative ones out there: It’s deadly to your Health, it stinks to high heaven, it costs a fortune to smoke (double that for quit-smoking remedies and then starting up again), it’s forbidden everywhere you go and you’re frowned upon if you do. So, tomorrow just might be a good day to quit. Yeah, that’s a good idea--tomorrow.

Day 1: Today is the day - supposed to quit smoking. But darn, if I don’t have that presentation to prepare for. Can’t blow that now, can I? The boss would kill me!

Day 2: I really need to relax today. Let go of some stress. Not a good day to try that quit smoking thing. I’ll do it tomorrow for sure.

Day 3: Going-away party for Joe tonight. I’ll be putting a few away. Drinking and quitting smoking don’t mix well, you know.

Day 4: I’m really not in a good mood today. Too much partying! Best not to add fuel to the fire. Going to need my cigarettes today.

Day 5: I was going to quit today for sure, but what do you know, the car wouldn’t start. Not a good way to start my day!

Day 6: By 8:00 a.m., no cigarette. Then I met Mary for coffee. Jeez, she smokes like a fiend.

Day 7: I still have a half-carton left. They’re much too expensive to waste.

Day 8: I think I’ll slowly reduce the number I smoke each day until they’re all gone.

Day 9: My daughter has this annoying habit of biting her fingernails. It drives me crazy trying to make her quit. Where are my cigarettes?

Day 10: I forgot I was going to quit today. I lit up and then it was too late. Oh well, there’s always tomorrow!

Tomorrow is always a day away that never comes.
