So I guess I kind of needed it. I took another drag and thought about all the wonderful things that were crawling into my lungs, making themselves at home. I wondered if they liked it, you know, being in my lungs and all. I don't think they did though, because I started coughing. Not the kind of coughing that makes you want a cough drop, but the kind that makes you question when you'll taste oxygen again. I just kept coughing. So here I am, in all my glory, and all I can think about is the awful color of the tile on this floor.
