***What Are You Smoking, May 2020?***

[marlinspike]

Smoking Captain Black in a basket pipe. One more cup of coffee.

Before you go to the valley below?

GLP Telegraph Hill in a Peterson Standard System Dark Smooth 307. An interesting fact about Telegraph Hill in SF is the population of parrots that live there. Now, Parrots are pretty rad because you can teach them to swear, but I'm not really ok with a pet that has a longer lifespan than I do. I say leave them parrots to nature where they can hang out with their long-lived friends, tortoises... Anyway this has been Danimalia's quarantine-induced inane ramblings on parrots

Having lived with my childrens' damned parakeets for 18 years, I'm with you on that. Wish I'd set them free years ago.

Before you go to the valley below?

I hope not. Haha Just the last of the night. I don't believe in drinking coffee after midnight, It might keep me up.

Almost half way through this bowl of aged Bald Headed Teacher in a medium brown, smooth octagonal paneled bowl and shank, medium bend 2016 Tim West Book Keeper 6 with a black acrylic saddle stem. More Community Coffee to drink. Watching a documentary about D.B. Cooper.

It was interesting. Did the fold and stuff method. There were quite a few relights and there was like a stiff crust like layer. Interestingly enough, I'm experiencing my first ever heavy hit of Vitamin N. It's not pleasant as I was wondering if I was having a heart attack. Ugh, I hate this.

Now smoking Wilke No.178 in a 1982 smooth slight bend straight grain Ben Wade Martinique freehand sitter with a wide top and a black vulcanite stem. The more I smoke this blend, the more I like it. Nice, comfortable all day smoke.

I prefer to rub my flakes out. I think they burn better that way.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 2019 black rusticated Peterson 312 full bend billiard with a military mount and a nickel band with a cumberland 4AB stem and a N.A.P. bit. Doing some reading.
