DRIVING??!

Amenna, For long trips I carried baby carrots with me and "pretended" to smoke them (others here recommended straws or Twizzlers). I too smoked while I was driving out of habit. For short trips I sat on my left hand (the smoking hand)- that may sound silly but it worked. Now I just get in the car and go, with no worries about whether I have my smokes, my lighter, did I get ashes on my dress pants, oh no it's raining and it will splash in the window when I smoke, oh no it's freezing cold and the heater is not warm but I gotta put the window down to let the smoke out, etc. etc. Good Luck!

Ameena, I did the same thing. Let me ask, Do you keep both hands on the steering wheel at 10 and 2? I did, I would get bored, and have to light up. I'm not saying I drive with one hand thrown over the top of the steering wheel now like a real cool gal. ha ha ha ha But I have something in my hand all of the time. Like a Tizzler!! Good size too. I also keep sunflower seeds with me so my hand is off the steering wheel just for a second. Keep a bottle of water with you at all time too. Okay?

OK, PLEASE TELL ME, I SMOKE WHEN IM DRIVING, WHETHER I CRAVE IT OR NOT. I THINK IT IS JUST OUT OF HABIT AND BORDEM, AND MUSIC DOESN'T HELP. I NEED THE CIGARETTE WHEN IM DRIVING SO I DON'T NOSE AROUND LOOKING INTO N E 1 ELSES VEHICLES, ITS A HABIT
