A Smoker's Blog

Well we're right at the beginning of December and my current cigarette status is that I do now have a couple of packs!

My google adsense earnings didn't carry me for as long as I hoped it would but I should at least be grateful that I was able to have some money to be able to buy some cigarettes! (And I am grateful for that!)

For right now I'm just tired of being tired and frustrated and I'm just trying to take one day at a time.

There have been times when I have been able to use the law of attraction successfully to manifest more cigarettes into my life but right now I'm thinking that I am trying too hard and that is a sign of me thinking about a lack of cigarettes and not an abundance of cigarettes - so I am working on that now!

So for right now I am grateful for the cigarettes that I do have.

I think I have blogged before about how I tried using the law of attraction to manifest more cigarettes into my life - right?

Well I think that this time it has actually worked for me (again)!

I was determined not to have to wait until the end of the month when I got my Adsense money to go buy cigarettes and I was just thinking of someway to get some money so that I could buy some more cigarettes!

Well I did some checking on a list for unclaimed money and I wasn't on that list! - Bummer! I thought that there just had to be a way to get some quick cash! There had to be a way that I could get some quick cash to my Paypal account so that I could spend the money on cigarettes!

I did a little searching around and I found a website that said they were willing to pay people via Paypalto review some music! Yippeeeee! I did just as the site said, reviewed some of the music and sent and email to them! About 24 hours later I received the money!

I went right out and bought me a pack of cigarettes!

So the law of attraction REALLY does work!

I was having a very good day today! I had to go out and do some shopping and although it was very hot I was feeling good! I had some cigarettes with me and since the day was so hot I decided not to rush things and I sat down to enjoy a smoke! As I was sitting on the bench smoking my cigarette a woman came down and sat besides me. I noticed that she was going to smoke a cigarette too but what I noticed about it was that she had some small cigarette butts that she was going to smoke. I'm quite sure that she got those off the street. (and it's kind of ironic that she had a lighter but not cigarettes).

Like I said I was having a good day so I decided to give her one of my cigarettes! She thanked me and then went on her way!

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I was having a good day today - cigarettes and all and
it felt good to be able to do a good deed for someone else!

It also got me to wondering about the state of things today - as far as cigarettes are concerned. It seems that there are those who have a much more worse cigarette habit than me and no matter how bad you think that things are bad for you there is always someone whose situation is much more worse! (Too bad the government doesn't give out government grants for cigarettes!)


So I'm happy-go-lucky today and feeling good! I can go back to work and since I work from home I take great comfort in taking a little cigarette break every now and then!

I didn't get an Adsense payment this month because I didn't make enough money but I will be getting an Adsense payment next month because my online earnings roll over into the next month. But for today I'm feeling good!

Everybody have a good day today!

So I'm lying down thinking about how I could get some money to buy me some cigarettes and nothing is coming to me yet. So I decide to let the thought go resigning myself to the fact that I would just have to wait until I got my Adsense money.

Then guess what happens? I get an idea as to how I could get a couple of dollars (I thought) right away. I won't tell you what the exact idea was but this is a very good example of the law of attraction at work!

The law of attractions says that what you think about and focus on you will get and since I was thinking of how I could get some more money for cigarettes an idea came to me!

I decided to put this plan in action even though I was having doubts about it working. It actually worked! However I think that since I was trying so hard to make it work that I made it more complicated than it should have been.

This idea gave me enough money to buy a couple of packs of the cheaper brand of cigarettes - but I was grateful for that because being without the cigarettes was making me crazy and it looks as though the universe helped me out!

Now I am a few days away from getting my Adsense money so I'm working on making the law of attraction work for me again!

Someone left a comment about this blog and there are some things that I want to point out.

Whoever it was that left the comment about how "I don't make a lot of Adsense money" - I would like to say How do you know how much Adsense money I make!

Would I rather spend the money on something else other than cigarettes? NO!

Am I ashamed about asking for donations to be able to have the money to buy cigarettes? NO! The fact that I have received a donation of $10 about a year ago just shows that people are willing to donate (of which I am very grateful).

The person that sent me this comment I am quite sure is definitely not a smoker because if they were they would not have left the kind of comment(s) that they did! So I really wouldn't expect them to understand what it is like to be a smoker!

It seems that cigarettes are going to have more graphic warnings on them. This is because of the government (of course) that is trying to deter people from smoking.

I know that President Obama smokes although he has said that it is something that he is struggling with.

But according to an online article, cigarette labels will now come with more graphic pictures and warnings, I guess in an attempt to get people to stop smoking.

Of course this does not deter me at all! I'm not too anxious to see what these kinds of warnings and pictures will look like but it still isn't going to stop me from smoking!

On another note I am without cigarettes again! My Adsense won't be kicking in until around the 25th of this month (according to The Adsense Consultant so I'm working with the law of attraction to attract more cigarettes into my life!

Graphic Cigarette Warning Lables

Got an interesting comment from someone who is also a smoker who has come up with a website of their own where they list places that are "smoker-friendly". Since he is a smoker and travels all over the world he looks for places that are smoker-friendly where he can sit and enjoy smoking his cigarette.

That's good to know and I'm sure that a lot of smokers (and especially those that travel) would love to know the locations of places where they would be able to enjoy smoking - along with other people who feel the same way!

It's just good to know that places like these are around so that smokers can enjoy them!

Have I ever considered buying cigarettes online? In a word - yes! However since I have never done it before I am a little wary of it.

Of course I have seen some sites advertising cigarette prices at a cost much lower than I could get in a store but like I have said before I have never done it before. I do remember a neighbor mentioning it to me one time but I don't remember now whether or not he had ever bought any cigarettes online.

It is something that I am still considering.

But I would like to hear from any of you if you have ever bought cigarettes online. Was it a good or bad experience for you?

I'm sure that if others read of good experiences and good testimonials from those that have bought their cigarettes online then a lot more people would do it.

I have been viewing some of the comments that have been posted recently on my blog and there seems to be a little bit of a mis-understanding.

While I can understand why some people would want to quit smoking - I am not one of those people! There have been some helpful tips and advice given about how to quit smoking and I'm sure that they will be of help to those that really want to quit smoking - but again - I am not one of them.

I am smoking a cigarette - although it is a cheaper brand - right now as I type this blog post so that means that I do have some cigarettes now but I don't have many and will be running out of them in a day or two. This does not deter me from not smoking when my cigarettes run out. It just means that when I get enough money I will be buying more cigarettes as soon as I can! My Adsense money won't be arriving for at least 2 weeks so I don't know where I will be able to get the money to buy any more - unless some kind soul donates enough money so that I can buy a carton of Kools - hint, hint!

So this blog is about a smoker who does NOT want to quit smoking.

I posted a few times before about how the law of attraction worked for me when I wanted to have more cigarettes. Now that I am out of them again I think that I am trying too hard to manifest more cigarettes for myself!

I did manage to eat breakfast but I think that being without cigarettes is giving me the case of the munchies because I must have had 10 pancakes this morning for breakfast!

I have these little mint candies that I have been sucking on since Friday. And I really must have gained about 5 pounds during this weekend and the weekend is not even over with yet!

My mood is so witchy with a capital B! I'm angry, pissed offed and frustrated!

I have about 2 cents in my bank account which is not enough to buy anything cigarette-related! I have about 15 cents in my Paypal account - again its not enough to buy even the most cheapest pack of cigarettes!

I haven't received any donations lately - hint, hint?

On the good and positive side my Adsense money should be coming sometime in the next few days - which unfortunately is not soon enough for me but should be something that I am very grateful for because I earned this Adsense money by working from home. And as far as I can tell I should consider myself very lucky because it seems that a lot of people that use Adsense don't even make a lot of money doing it.

I think I'm kind of mad at the government too because first when I started smoking cigarettes were much more cheaper and the economy wasn't as bad. Now that we smokers have become addicted to cigarettes the government now decides that smoking is not good for us and keeps trying to think of ways - most notably increasing the prices - to get us to stop smoking!

Well that's not going to happen to me! While it may be more expensive to smoke I am still going to continue to smoke even if I can't afford it - I will just have to wait until I can afford it - which will be when I get my next Adsense check which will be in the next few days.

Until then I am in AGONY!

I have blogged a few times about how I try to use the law of attraction in getting me more cigarettes. Well it worked for me today!

Here is my law of attraction story for today!

I was running out of cigarettes but I kept trying to keep a positive attitude about it. I had enough cigarettes to last me for the rest of the day so I just decided to enjoy the moment and enjoy the day! (Although I was secretly hoping for more cigarettes to last me at least through the weekend.)

So I go and do some grocery shopping at the supermarket and guess what happened? There was a special coupon offer for $5 off of an item and I decided to buy it just for the coupon. Well the transaction didn't work and the manager gave me $5! How is that for proof that the law of attraction works!

Of course I am going to use that $5 to buy me some cigarettes!

Labels: Experiences and Musings And Observations, I Have Cigarettes Again, My Supply

and oddly enough I am also out of matches as well!

Oh the torture of not being able to have my supply of cigarettes right now! But those of you who are smokers know what I mean and know the feeling when it comes to being out of cigarettes!

I'm trying to stay positive and keep positive thoughts! I'm also working on making the law of attraction work for me like it has done before in the past. I think that the reason that the law of attraction doesn't work for me sometimes is the fact that I try too hard - but nicotine withdrawl will do that to you!

On the positive side I have about a week before I get my earning from Adsense! Oh how welcomed that will be and I will have enough money to buy at least a few packs of the cheaper cigarettes - I might even buy some more of the cigars that I have had a chance to try out.

I think that when you want something so bad it makes it harder or it takes longer to get which is what I am thinking is happening in my case!

Don't get me wrong though. I have high hopes of becoming a millionaire and being able to afford all the cigarettes (and cigars) that I want! Who knows? I may get a donation. I may get a sale.....I remember one time some money coming to me in one of the most unusual ways which affirms my belief that you never know where money will come from!

So I'm keeping my fingers crossed and trying to hold on to positive thoughts - until I have cigarettes again!

I found this very interesting online article about people who are using the money that they have to pay their bills - they are using that money to buy cigarettes! One interesting example is someone who used part of their bill money to pay for cigarettes!

Am I shocked by this article? Actually no I'm not! What I'm shocked about is that there are at least other people out there who have at least thought about using the money that they have to pay their bills - that they would actually think about using that money to pay for cigarettes - because I have at least thought about it myself! I'm at least glad to see that there are others out there who have at least thought about it!

Those of us who have experience with not being able to pay our bills in full each month know that sometimes one can get away with not paying a bill for one or two months before the "notices" begin! If you are really considered being a low-incomed person then you may be able to get some financial help for your bills such as government grants or some other kind of financial program and the money that you have saved could then be used to pay for your cigarettes.

Even President Obama smokes and at least he's honest about it!

I'm always surprised by the poll on the side of this blog where people have voted that they think that their cigarette habit is more worse than my own - I'm always shocked by that but at least I know that I am not alone! Which is quite encouraging!

I know that beggars can't be choosers but this is one brand of cigarette that I have come to hate! I must have bought them when they didn't have any of my brands - even the cheaper ones!

But how are ya gonna know you hate a brand until you have tried it!

Labels: Brands I HATE, Experiences and Musings And Observations, Other Cigarette Brands

I wanted some cigarettes So badly! It's been about a week since I last had any cigarettes and I was desparately trying to think of a way to get some! I started to weigh my options:

• My adsense check won't be arriving for another week!
  
  
  
• I had less than $2 in my bank account!
  

Then I had an ephiphany! I knew that you could buy something from certain stores with your debit card and you could get cash back! Now the only thing was that I could only get cash back if I could get change as opposed to getting just a dollar amount - which would have put my bank balance in the negative! But I had remembered seeing someone else do this once so I decided to go and take the chance!

I went to a Rite Aid and had to buy something that cost less than 50 cents! I bought a small bag of potatoe chips that cost 35 cents. I asked the cashier if the kind of transaction I wanted was possible and she told me that I could get cash back but only in dollar amounts (no change). So I decided to think about what I was going to do next! In the meantime another customer wanted to do a different kind of transaction and it was similar to the kind of transaction that I wanted to make and she asked another cashier about it. Picking up on this I decided to ask that same cashier about the kind of transaction I wanted to do. She said it wasn't possible on the register that was open but she kindly offered to open a register where I could do the kind of transaction that I wanted to do!

Long story short I was able to buy a pack of cigarettes and still have a positive amount in my bank account!

I think that this is a very good example of the law of attraction at work! Now I have just got to learn how to harness this law to my benefit!

But at least for right now I have cigarettes!!!!!!

Labels: Experiences and Musings And Observations, I Have Cigarettes Again, Other Cigarette Brands-Hummers, Paying For Cigarettes

I had just enough money to buy the cheaper brand of cigarettes that I mentioned before - called Hummers and I went to my regular "haunt" - the gas station (that's where the cigarettes cost the cheapest) to get them. Since I'm there buying cigarettes all the time most of the cashiers that work there know me.

This particular time the cashier that was there must have been a new employee. He didn't believe me when I told him that the cigarettes that I wanted to buy only cost $1.59 and I guess that this cigarette brand scanned differently. He said he couldn't let me buy the cigarettes because he didn't believe that they only cost $1.59. Well since I was out of cigarettes and that was the only store near me that sold that particular (cheaper) brand I was set on not leaving without them!

In the meantime a woman comes in to pay for gas but some kind of mistake occurred and either she or the cashier didn't say the right gas pump number. To make a long story short another person at a different pump managed to get her gas! And by the time that was figured out the person who had gotten her gas had drove off. The cashier wouldn't re-imburse her and she said she wasn't leaving until she got either her gas or her money back (she was using her credit card to pay for the gas). In the meantime another woman comes in and says that the gas pump charged her $5 and some change and no gas had pumped. In the meantime I'm still there waiting to buy my cigarettes.

To make things even more complicated the time was coming upon a shift change and cashiers have to count out their cash drawers to make room for the next shift and cashier.

In the meantime other customers were coming in. Some had no problems with their transactions and a few had minor problems such as the cashier not being familar with the product or how much it cost.

In the meantime the woman who wanted either her gas or her money back said that she was going to call the police!

In the meantime during all this chaos (and while I was still there waiting) - the cashier decided to "take my word for it" and he let me purchase the cigarettes - which I was very glad about!

The poor cashier was having such a hard time and I felt so much better after being able to purchase the cigarettes that I thanked him and I told him that I hoped that the rest of his day would go better.

In the meantime as I left the store (with my cigarettes) the woman who was complaining was on the public pay phone talking with her credit card company and things didn't seem to be going to well. Since the transaction had more or less just started there had to be some time before they could look into the matter.

It just goes to show you that no matter how much of a bad day you might be having someone else is having an even worser day!

So I'm thankful and grateful that I was able to get my cigarettes and I hope things work out for the woman who was having a more worse day than me!
