starbucks

i'm sitting outside starbucks. 4 tables in total, 3 of them taken. i sit at the only vacant table. a couple with 2 loud annoying kids are next to me. i would emphasize that they were loud and annoying, but i digress.

anyways, i pull out a cigarette and was about to light it up when i suddenly realized that there are 2 kids at the next table. i started thinking, "should i be smoking next to these kids? will they get cancer in 50 yrs just because they inhaled some second hand smoke ages ago?" it's not like i'm a considerate person by any stretch of the imagination, it just felt weird. so i sat there, pretending to be reading my book, unlit cigarette dangling from my lips, debating. i must have sat there, fucking talking to myself in my head for about 5 mins when i detected the smell of cigarette smoke in the air.

i looked over and saw the lady with the 2 kids smoking at the table.

i wonder when i'll quit smoking.
