So I'm having my morning cigarette, nothing unusual about this part of my daily routine. I do this everymorning...the unusual part is what I'm thinking over in my head. A carton of smokes contains 10 packs of cigarettes, 20 cigarettes per pack...so thats 200 per carton. I smoke a carton a week. There are 24 hours in a day, roughly 1440 minutes, multiply that by 7 days a week....10,080 minutes per week. Now, I read somewhere back in my gradeschool years that one cigarette takes 5 minutes off your normal lifespan. 200 cigarettes multiplied by 5 minutes taken off everytime you light up is...1000 minutes off your life. So in one weeks time I am removing 1000 minutes off my life, roughly a day a week off my life per carton I smoke. Fuck chemotherapy, I'm going to quit while I'm ahead.
