As a former smoker, I agree with everyone who talks about it being stinky, stinky, stinky. And it sucks! Well, the only time I like the smell is when I am very tired from not getting enough sleep--then I am reminded of the pick-me-up I got from those terrible things. I was a teenager with low self esteem and that's partly why I started at age 13 (quit at age 24 and never looked back). You can't argue with nasty, stinky, and horrible. However, I agree to some extent, that I should have remembered about living in a complex of any kind (and even close living neighbors) that smoke is usually there. I also don't eat red meat and yet find myself living with meat eaters. So I take responsibility for moving in with them. I guess maybe I should move to Belmont, CA (a mere 45-50 miles away) to live in a smoke free apartment or townhouse complex. The only other thing is to live in a smoke free house away from other housing, period. Good luck to everyone in getting away from that nasty cigarette smoke and help your children to never pick one up in the first place!
