I'm so glad I'm not the only person who does this. I'm a cardio-kickboxing 
instructor and I ALWAYS fire one up on my way out of the gym. People look at 
me like I'm insane or something, and it makes me want to blow smoke in their 
face when they comment on it, as if I'm too stupid to know the risks 
involved with my habit. I just want to say to them, "It's my lungs, go save 
your own soul and don't worry about mine".

So much attention is focused on Joni smoking. I can only imagine how I would 
feel if everything in my life was under such close scrutiny by so many 
people. Oh the pressure......
