smoking

[his lordship Richard F Claypool]

I didn't personally like smoking, but what realy brought it home was a girl 
I dated.  She never smoked, but she had cancer of the lungs.  She wanted to 
go to a goth club, she wanted to dance, but the smoke kept her from doing 
this.  She was going to come with me the weekend she died.

I don't permit smoking in my apt.  Every time I'm forced to be around 
smoking I think of my Devon .. I don't throw a bitchy fit, but non-smoking 
here is making me a very happy Rickness.
