thanks for the input. i've thought about the "getting lazy" with my smoking and letting them find out that way. a couple weeks ago, i left a pack sitting in my cup holder in my car outside, but if they noticed, they didn't say anything. besides, i think theyll respect it more if i come on out on my own.
i need to find a time this week when they're both home (and perhaps when they're smoking!) to go on and tell them. surely they already suspect something. i make no effort to hide the smell when i come home and i've been smoking or when i'm smoking at home while they're gone. i've always assumed if they ask why i smell like smoke, i could blame it on them! but they haven't asked, so i think it's up to me.
