I'm borrowing this idea which is often used as an "icebreaker" in workshops and seminars. The notion is you tell three things about yourself, only two of which are actually true, and the others have to try to guess which one is a fib.
I'll keep my "facts" focused on smoking (or quitting). Can you guess which one is a complete fiction?
[*]I started smoking, in part, so I could take more breaks as a short order cook in a pancake restaurant.
[*]When I was a kid, I would steal cigarettes from my father's pack which he kept in a desk drawer. I don't think he ever knew.
[*]My favorite brand, which I don't think they even make any more, was Barclay's.
After a few guesses, I'll reveal which one is untrue.
Feel free to post two truths and a fib about your smoking experience as well! Hey, it beats smoking!
Fun game! OK, which one of my smoking facts is a falsehood?
1) I have been so desperate for fags as a student that I tried rolling up and smoking squashed up dried lavender.
2) I started smoking because I was in a play (also as a student) and had to smoke a ten inch long spliff on stage and didn't want to look rubbish doing it.
3) I once (again as a student, they were heady days) nearly set fire to my boyfriend's cheap foam sofa bed when less than sober.
But only cos I was #*%$ing sad enough to have done the same meself! Once upon a time.
I seriously did have a mate who used to smoke in the shower. He fixed a small shelf, where he could balance an ashtray above the showerhead, so he could reach up and keep dragging from time to time whilst showering.
Were we all sad bastards or what?
Not any more!
Well not today thats for sure. And I'll see what tomorrow brings.
Esso....sad bastards...yes. I could cry thinking about it......and yet strangely feel miffed I never thought of the handy, over shower-head, smoking shelf. Christ...if I had ....i'd have had one.
Hells....i'm saying number 1. Not because I think its number 1 (I think its number 2) but because the idea of smelling, let alone smoking lavendar makes me feel a bit queazy. A bit ooh and a bit ahhhhh. Tell me its a lie !Tell me you......like me.......limited your lavendar experimentation to artfully crafted pot pourri sacks which ended up (quite properly) in your granny's knicker drawer. Thanks in advance.
Sorry dippy, I really did try smoking lavender. Also grated nutmeg, which I was told would get me high, but actually just made me smell like apple pie.
And I really did start because of a play. I only had two lines in the bloody thing as well! And, contrary to my expectations, I took to smoking like a duck to water. Silly cow.

I am shocked! I would never have believed that you would be allowed to smoke a spliff on stage.(I have lived a sheltered life) Your life sounds amazing! It seems so much fun.
