A friend of mine used to be a dentist and remembers smoking a cigarette while working on his patients. He’d keep it stowed in a nearby ashtray and take puffs in between drilling. In California, where water has become a luxury, I miss being able to keep the faucet running while brushing my teeth. And I’m starting to feel a nostalgia for plastic bags.
