A third of the way through this bowl of seven year old MacBaren Virginia #1 in a late '90s half smooth/half etched freehand sitter, medium bend Nielsen Viggo with a pearl brown acrylic stem. Seven years sure makes a difference with this tobacco.

Attended a funeral visitation for a 42 year old co-worker of ten years. As upbeat as possible, a lot of hugs and even a few laughs, exactly the way she would have wanted it. Now smoking a bowl of Esoterica Margate in a large 3/4 bent rusticated apple Ascorti Business pipe, sipping a shot of Jack Daniels for a nightcap before bed.

Couldn't sleep, so I'm smoking MacBaren Golden Extra in a 1983 medium bend, mostly smooth, bottom rusticated Butz-Choquin Maitre Pipier 3 Fait Main with pearl brown acrylic stem. A cup of Maxwell House, neat, is my drink. Suzy and Molly are happy to see me up, and yes, they got some tuna, so they're even happier now. M'lady's making me some ham and eggs, so I'm happy, too!  |

Strange weather, highs in the 60s today and rain, only 20s tomorrow. Could turn very icy. Going to clean out the wood burner today, make sure it's ready to fire up again tomorrow and watch some college basketball. Starting off the day with Mac Baren Va #1 in a James Upshall Tilshead Canadian, drinking Trader Joe's coffee, black.

G'Day, some St. Bruno in my Bruno Freehand plateau , after a pizza, with On Her Majesties Secret Service on tv , I never noticed a white spot on M's pipe in the office, but 007 was puffing clouds in a pipe on a sleigh to visit Blofield in his mountain lair. Diana Rigg was a great star in the Avengers from my youth, reminds me of a lady I met over a decade ago, drinking a bottle of lemonade with a dash of red Martini, stirred not shaken, the games of the god's, you have to laugh, Shakespeare has a quote for it, I think of a 4 letter quote for it...🙈🙉🙊
