こんにちは、岸です。
昨年末、この日記に、卒煙したと書きました。 その後、
あれから1本も吸ってません。早いもので、ちょうど4ヵ月になります。
喫煙衝動に駆られることもありませんでした。
吸いたいと思うことが全くなかったかと言えば、正直、皆無ではありませんでしたが。
まぁ気にせず、吸わずにおります。
「タバコをやめた」と言うと、タバコを吸わない知人からは喜ばれ、タバコを吸う知人からは寂しがられました。
タバコを吸う者の間には、茶飲み友達ならぬ、「タバコ飲み友達」のようなタバコ飲み独特の関係があったりします。喫煙コーナーで語らったり、タバコ休憩を一緒に取ったりして、その間のコミュニケーションで人間関係を深める、なんていうようなことが。昨今は、どんどんタバコが吸いづらい環境になってきていますので、余計に、その紐帯感が強まっているのかもしれません。
その所為でしょうか。タバコを吸うある知人からは、裏切られたとでも言わんばかりに、「僕は絶対にタバコをやめないからね」 と断言されました。対抗意識というのでもないと思うのですが。
タバコは嗜好品です。その知人にまでやめてもらおうなどとは思いません。他人に強要するつもりはありません。吸いたい人は吸えばいいし、やめたい人はやめればいい。
でも、タバコを吸っていた身には、その知人がそう言いたくなる気持ちもわかります。
(ちなみに、その知人とは、瞬間的に溝が生じました(?)が、その後も懇意にさせてもらっています)
今週、それと逆の経験もしました。
前職で取引を頂いていた、ある会社の社長に誘われ、一緒に(お酒を)飲みに行く機会がありました。
お会いするのは1年ぶりくらい。還暦を迎えられたその社長は、以前からヘビースモーカーでしたので、タバコをご一緒できない無礼(?)をお詫びするため、早いうちに卒煙したことを告白しようと、「社長、実はタバコ・・・」と言い掛けたところで、向こうから先に 「岸さん、僕、タバコやめたよ」 と言われました(!)。
聞けば、去年の11月からとのこと。僕より1ヵ月早いですが、ほぼ同時期にやめられていたわけです。
僕もタバコをやめたことをあらためて伝えたのですが、僭越を承知で言わせて頂くと、その後、その社長とは、喫煙者同士だった頃よりも深い連帯感が生まれたような気がしました。いやぁ、本当に面白いものです。
卒煙、その後。
タバコをやめたメリット、デメリットは?
嗅覚が以前より鋭くなったかもしれません。それ自体、メリットともデメリットとも感じません。
ニコチンは消化を司る神経系統を麻痺させる働きがあるそうですが、多量のニコチンを体内に入れることがなくなったため、以前より食べ物の消化がよくなったかもしれません。そのためか、食べる量は変わらないのですが、効率よく血肉になり(?)、体重が増えました(!)。これは、メリット?デメリット?
たまたま知ったのですが、タバコを吸うと、加齢臭のもととなる活性酸素が増えるそうです。
タバコと加齢臭には、ハッキリと因果関係があるようです。40代も後半となり、四捨五入すれば50になる身にとって、加齢臭の問題はとうてい無視できません。これは、明らかにメリットです。
その他にもきっと諸々メリットがあるものと思います。
これからもタバコを吸うつもりはありません。
最後に、蛇足ながら、素朴な疑問。「禁煙」はなぜか進行形で語られませんか?
タバコを「やめた」と言っているのに、何日か、何週間か、あるいは何ヵ月かして、「まだ禁煙してる?」なんて、聞かれたりして。
「やめた」は、「金輪際、タバコを吸わなくなりました」というのでも、「タバコとは生涯、完全に縁を切りました」というのでもなく、「今は、たまたまタバコをやめてます」くらいのニュアンスでしか受けとめられないのです。
これは、禁煙を断念されるか、何度も禁煙にチャレンジされる方がいらっしゃるためだと思うのですが、これまた何とも妙で面白いものです。
僕が「卒煙」と言っているのは、完全に断(た)ったということを強調したいがためでもあるのですが、それでも「まだ卒煙、続いてますか?」と聞かれることがあります。(ものすごく変な日本語ですが)
そっとしておいてください(笑)。
最後の最後に、一言。
受動喫煙は苦になりません。
タバコを吸われる方、どうぞお気遣いなきように。

I must say, as significantly as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt help but lose interest after a while. Its as if you had a terrific grasp to the topic matter, but you forgot to include your readers. Perhaps you should think about this from more than 1 angle. Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so substantially. Its better if you think about what others may have to say instead of just heading for a gut reaction to the subject. Think about adjusting your own thought process and giving others who may read this the benefit of the doubt.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
