Haddo kicked my ass.

K, so I recently ordered a couple G.L. Pease blends to try, Hado's Delight, and Robusto. I tried Hado's delight tonight in my new unsmoked shop pipe(Totally botched the drilling on the briar and ended up misaligning the whole f-ing bowl and airway so everything is crooked).
Anyways... I smoked it pretty slow, sitting in my garage coaching my brother through some basic metal lathe use. (he botched my precious stabilized Maple blank whilst I was at a work meeting, so I figured I'd better teach him how to not do that again). And I decided, because I was so content with my feet propped up on the bench, that I'd smoke all the way through the bowl.
I smoked everything in that damned behemoth, all the way down to the bottom. Relighting quite a lot(gotta love breaking in a pipe, even a shop pipe). The whole time I was like "wow this is an awesome tobacco, it's even giving me a little buzz!".
All was well.
Then, I knocked the pipe out, and stood up.
Damn that tobacco has a KICK at the end. I could barely stand I had such a big buzz from it. I mean seriously- it hurt. The last time I got that buzzed was when I smoked a cuban second. I walked inside and collapsed on the couch, unable to sit or stand. Then I chugged some water, and staggered to bed, laying there feeling the world spinning.
Holy crud, how did that happen?
Is it bad juju to constantly relight the bowl as it gets low?
Am I just not used to the kick of stronger English blend?
Seriously, I felt like I was gonna die.
Gotta love me some Haddo's delight.
