Anyone else just not smoking as much lately?

04-01-2009, 01:50 PM

I know I'm not. Ever since I started here at TexCigars I don't smoke but maybe three cigars a week now if that. Normally on the weekends only. Now, I have some health issues that led me to stop smoking as much as well but to tell the truth I really only enjoy cigars from Habanos Torres now. The only other cigar I can smoke to the end now is the J. Fuego Natural line. Tim ****ing ruined me for everything else.

Nope... I'm smoking just as much as I used to. I tend to average 4-5 sticks a week and have for around the last year or so...

I do gravitate towards smoking more on the weekends in the summertime though... in the winter it tends to be in the drive home more...

Over the past 3-4 weeks I've smoked on three separate occasions. Just recovering from knee surgery and can't get out for a smoke very easy. Plus the cold weather has put a damper on it.

No

Well, at least you picked a nice one to stick too!

God damn yes. Tim has these 30 year torpedos that blow Padron 40ths out of the water...

I wouldn't say that I'm not smoking as much lately, but I'm not smoking as much as I WILL BE when the weather warms up.

Unforunately I will be smoking less when the weather warms up.

Hot and humid outside in South Florida does not equal good smoking weather for me. Most weekly cigars are had outside, late after the wife goes to bed, but that won't happen if its hot and humid outside. I'll still have the A/C'd B&M on the weekends though.

yourchoice · 04-01-2009, 02:19 PM

One week I'll smoke 1 or 2 cigars, and the next week I'll smoke 9 or 10. Hit or miss depending on what I have going on at the time.

04-01-2009, 02:23 PM

I used to smoke 5-6 cigars a day...

04-01-2009, 02:27 PM

I am smoking a lot more since the weather is nicer. Average around 2 sticks a day.

icehog3 · 04-01-2009, 02:38 PM

I smoked more cigars in March than I have smoked in a single month in a couple years....just been jonesin' most every day.

SmokeyJoe · 04-01-2009, 03:16 PM

I have been smoking MORE here of late...

Couple of golf outings, plus two days of smokey conversation with Patrick and Dan (Bigswol2 and Mister Moo) just hanging out.

Dang... want one right now.

marge796 · 04-01-2009, 03:23 PM

I'm smoking between 8-10 cigars a week. Here very soon that number will go up and I am looking forward to that I must say.

WildBlueSooner · 04-01-2009, 03:33 PM

I am smoking about 4 cigars a week....have not and do not plan to slow down

04-01-2009, 03:37 PM

Sadly, I haven't had a cigar in a week. So I guess I haven't been smoking as much lately. The city I live in just enacted a smoking ban and it's been rainy/snowy and cold here so that's the reason why I haven't been smoking. Got to go the B&M for a smoke these days and that's a good 25 minutes from chez Beer. On my way now

GreekGodX · 04-01-2009, 03:39 PM

I actually smoke less when the weather is warm. I don't really like being outside and smoking. I like inside where there is a lot of secondhand and I can really taste the cigar. I just like smoking better inside.

04-01-2009, 03:48 PM

I looked at the site and almost PMd you, just to avoid asking a "stupid question". Where can one get these? I don't see any info on the site for purchasing...

Oh and no, I'm actually increasing... At least one a day after work on weekdays and 2,3 or 4 weekends and Mondays since I switched to the 10 hour days and 4 day work week. Having Mondays off is nice enough to make the 10 hour days worth it. Even the long bad days...

roughrider · 04-02-2009, 03:29 PM

When I'm away from home, I usually light up 2-5 cigars a day. At home, 3-5 a week. Nice weather also helps a lot.
