Today, I Smoked A Cigarette For The First Time

For people who are busy living their lives and doing things that actually matter, you probably didn't see the video that I posted yesterday in which I put out a music video of me lip singing Bobby Brown's "My Prerogative," if you haven't seen it here it is.

In that video, I lit a cigarette for the first time. Today, I smoked one. How bout that? The young buck is finally growing some whiskers on his chin. Look, man, I'm not going to claim to know what I was doing here. It's actually ironic because I sold people cigarettes for two years, and yet I never smoked a single one. You still got to be able to laugh at yourself. I will never categorize myself as "cool." Chris Castellani sitting on the back porch smoking a cigarette for the first time may not be cool, but it's content, and content always plays.

Will this be the last time that I smoke a cigarette? Probably not. If the Tigers ever win the World Series, I will probably inject substances in my body that I've never done before, including a lot of cigarettes. Am I proud that I waited 27 years to smoke a cigarette (even though you could argue after today that I still haven't smoked one)? Yes and no. I've always been weird, but if you're aware of your weirdness, then you'll probably do some good things at this company, at least I hope to. I hope y'all enjoyed the video.
