The smoke: Sterling Balkan in a cob. Accompaniment: a bit of Johnny Walker Black Label on the rocks.
Up till now, I was doing 1-2 pipes a week. I'm not sure if I just enjoy the time-out...or if nicotine is making me crave a smoke, but I find myself thinking about making time for my next pipe. (Does nicotine work on the body that fast?) Tonight, the wife ran an errand, and I knew I had an hour or so by myself, so I decided to go for it.
Pretty much until now (pre-pipe), my "sit down and rest" moments were in front of a TV, or in front of my laptop or phone. But, I've kind of defaulted to a rule for my pipe: "When smoking a pipe, no electronic devices shall be present." I just sat on my front porch, watching the birds, and squirrels, and I resisted the urge to have my phone present. All in all, taking time out from electronic devices has to be good.
