The smell is horrible!

Leaving work yesterday, walked towards two women outside having a smoke. I could smell it before I was anywhere near them! The effect it had on me wasn't that it made me want one. Quite the opposite because it smelt so bad......As I got into my car I said to myself, "Yay, that is one of my big reasons to stay off the cigs. They stink!" And today, my bed has been completely stripped & all bedding laundered, including the mattress overlay, because I could smell the smoke on my pillow this morning. The smell of smoke when walking through the mall hit me as well, and I'd never really noticed it before on one of my many visits to buy my smokes. Only day 5 & already noticing these things that I never noticed while smoking.
