.. Smoke?


For me, I seem to be busy during the week, Monday and Tuesday for sure once I get off work. Wed, Thurs and Fri all depend on what I have going on.

This week, I missed a smoke on Monday, Tuesday and last night. Sometimes I get a little mad, I guess you can say. I have all these sticks I am wanting to try and it seems like I have very little time. On the weekend, I try to at least have one in the AM and then I try at night.. Seems like, no matter what, I can only get 1 a day.. booo.

On average, I get about... 3-4 cigars smoked in a week... I feel like it isn't enough and I want more but can never find the time or day or night. Its always something to do............:sl

I sometimes go a whole week without smoking. I do use smokeless tobacco too so for me a cigar is not about quantity but quality. What I mean by that is I rarely smoke a cigar while doing something, I usually smoke just to smoke, maybe I might read or surf the internet while I am smoking but rarely anything else.

Seems like 'life' gets in my way a lot too. It can be frustrating, especially if I've really been looking forward to one. But it always nice when I finally have the time to sit and enjoy one.
Today is going to be one of those days, a coworker and I are heading to the local B&M this afternoon to burn a couple. :banger

Not at all.. I wish I had a job where I could.

I am not smoking just to smoke, I do enjoy it.. But, I will normally just relax while i smoke, unless I have had the stick before and don't mind, I might do some cleaning up in the garage. Other than that, I am on the laptop or watching some kind of sporting event.

I can understand your frustration. I'm glad I cant smoke everyday though. It helps me enjoy and appreciate it a little more than if I smoked everyday. I probably smoke 2-4 a week.

I usually only smoke every couple weeks or so. I usually smoke 3 or so on that day.

I usually smoke about 3 or 4 a week as well, if I can't get one in I don't let it get to me, and sometimes I won't have one because I know I wont fully enjoy it if my mind is occupied with other stuff.

I smoked a lot less before I started going to a weekly herf! Lol. Now I average between 5-7 cigars a week, but I usually only smoke Saturday, Sunday, and Monday (Monday is herfday).

Usually I'll get a couple cigars in each morning on Saturday and Sunday with my coffee. That's how I recuperate on the weekend! Monday night, depending on the size of the cigar, I'll smoke 2-3 that evening.

Very rarely do I smoke on any other day. I kind of consider it a break for my girlfriend so she doesn't have to kiss me and taste cigar breath :( haha

I try to smoke 1 every other day, I feel that keeps my pallete clean and since I don't have $ to invest in smokes I can make what I have last until the $ comes in.

Now tomorrow I bet I will smoke 5-10 smokes no problem (OH Herf) I do get upset if I have been wanting to smoke something and it doesn't happen because of life or the family is in need of my attention or what have you, but not so much that I am angry, more like disappointed.

Depends on what the weather is like and whether I go to my local weekly herf. If weather is nice I might average a cigar every other day, getting in 2 or 3 over the weekend. If I'm herfing I'll usually put away 3 that evening.

That is the thing too. I will be thinking about having one. I see the time and realize I am too tired so I will not enjoy it.

It does sounds like I'm right in there.. I just need to realize smoking is a hobby, not my job. I can't have 1 or more every day. I just have to face the music and really enjoy the times I do get one and charish the days I get 2 or more.. haha:noon

How do you, who do it, get 3 or so in an evening? Sounds crazy to me... But I bet if I had the time, I'm sure I would!

At least one a week - usually closer to three a week. Smoking in the house is a no-no, so I have to either drive 15 min to the B&M or go outside.

Smoke at least one almost every day, some days more. On non-Herf weeks, I probably average 10-12 a week.

At least one a day, but try to get in 2-3 during the spring and summer. Short smokes come in handy in the winter.

I typically go out on the front porch for a smoke two to three times a week, and typically smoke 2 cigars each time

Ashcan Bill

On average, I burn one a day. More if there's a herf or smoking friends are in town. And it's not uncommon for me to go a day or two between cigars. But generally, one a day.

I'm a newb, and I'm not really a smoker. I went from one every camping trip, to once or twice a week. I don't think I want to do it more than that. Unless smoking cigars makes me thin, sexy, and muscular. :r

I smoke about 4-5 sticks per week, seldom more than one per day. Unless I am camping or on vacation, then it is several sticks per day.

during the summer maybe 2-3 a week. sometimes i might go a week or 2 with out smoking. when the cooler weather comes down then i try to smoke a little more maybe 3-4 a week.

i love sitting outside with my girlfriend and a smoke and hot cup of coffee :tu

I usually only smoke one or two a week. However when I'm deployed, in the field or stuck on a Navy ship, I smoke one every day after dinner. It is that one thing I have to look forward to everyday. I do wish there were more cigar smokers. I seem to be the lone ranger.

As of late, it's been at least one a day during the week and weekends 2 a day. Week days vary from time to time. Living on an Island where the average year temp is between 75 to 85 is a blessing and provides more time to enjoy passion.

I have not smoked for the week. I have so busy lately. Usually, I smoke on the weekends. On average, I smoke around 2-3 cigars in a week.

Sonic04GT
10-07-2011, 07:56 PM
About one per week. I do not smoke inside and I like to enjoy a cigar in ideal conditions, like on the boat, or at the beach. Tonight was a good cool breezy night for south Florida so I pulled my chair out to the front door and sat there on the iPad smoking an LGC, but usually it's a weekend thing.

Right now I'm deployed and working 6 days a week 12-14 hours a day. I only get the chance to smoke 1 a week, on my day off. When I'm home I generally smoke 2-3 a week, usually on the weekends.

Thanks! Can't take all the credit...most of the design and decor is a pipe smoking friend of mine who pretty much lives here too. It is an awfully comfortable place though. I'd love to host a HERF but I know I live BEYOND the middle of nowhere. If there is a Sturgis contingent (or just guys who go) we are right on I-90 on the way. Would love to have some company!

I smoke 1-2 a week, depending on how much stuff I have to put up with at work. Smoking inside is a no-no for me as well, so I sit on my back porch. It's usually at night, after everyone's asleep for no distractions. I'll have the iPod with Pandora going while surfing on the iPad, and drinking iced tea.

3-5 a week. Except right now because I'm sick and my throat feels like there's needles in it. Hopefully get to lounge in my local B&M at the end of the week and have a couple.

DaBear
03-06-2013, 05:36 PM
Really depends on my mood that day, some days I'll be working for 12 hours and only smoke two sticks, other days I'll fire up 7+ in that same shift or shorter. Though I think generally I'm between 15 and 20 a week. I was real bad the weekend before this past one. Smoked 18 in a 3 day period. As of now, I haven't smoked a thing since Sunday.

I tend to hover around 3-5 a week now, though if I have a fully stocked humidor it can go as high as 2-3 per day. Right now, I'm purposely keeping my humi empty (I'd been smoking way too many) so I've hovered around 3 per week, if that.

I tend to average about 2-3 a week; mostly on weekends. I always plan to smoke more in the warmer weather, but it rarely happens. I also have to go outside so its the back porch or mower in the summer and the garage when its cold out.

SpanishForTatoo
03-06-2013, 08:19 PM
Usually I get 2-3 sticks on Fri night, Sat and Sun at my local B&M. If its a rough Monday-and most of them are-maybe one that night after work.

Nice weather 2-5 a week. Hot or cold and it drops to 0-1 a week. It used to be nearly 1 a day but I'm now a fair weather cigar smoker.

Totally understandable, even when I smoked cigs and got ticked off at people that would "cough" extra loud as some kind of statement, when there is a baby around you just shouldn't smoke, their lungs are so small and underdeveloped that even as an a$$hole I wouldn't smoke around children.

I used to smoke only on weekends. But ever since I moved to Kuwait and there's not much to do around, I began to smoke one every day...normally once I'm back in my apartment, I'd light up one while continue to work for a couple of hours.

I usually smoke one a day on weekdays, weather permitting. I'll have two or three on Sundays when I herf with a couple friends and usually have two with some beers after yard work on Saturdays. I like to sit outside under the shade tree and puff away while on the phone or reading. I can usually do two on a day off work.

I normally don't smoke at home, especially any time the kiddos could see (4-year old triplets and a month old)... the only exceptions being when mowing the yard or working in the garage. This leaves me with, basically, lunch-time at work to smoke. I'd say I get to enjoy a Robusto 3-4 days a week during lunch. During the summer it's mostly in a smoking area outside the office with stone picnic tables. During the winter it's either at a nearby restaurant that has a bar/lounge in the back or a local cigar shop with a lounge that allows non-members to smoke anything they've just purchased.

dijit
06-26-2013, 02:12 PM
No set days or events for me to have a cigar. Usually have 7 to 9 sticks a week. Usually on the way to or from work and on the back patio in the evening are the best times for me.
