Okay, this is a serious question for once.

Do you think it is possible to smoke only a little?

I usually go through about 1.5 to 2 packs a week. Basically a smoke on the way to work, a couple during the day, and one on the way home, sometimes one at night, none on the weekends, none on vacation. Kind of a "work smoker" I guess.

Recently my smoking buddy at work and I decided to quit, so it has now been about 2 weeks since my last cigarette.

The problem is, I really do enjoy smoking. Not the everyday smoking I was doing - that was a habit I want to break. But, for example, I like a contemplative pause with a pipe. Or a hand-roll and a Guinness at the local pub.

Do you think it is possible to be an occasional smoker? Know anyone who is?
