I usually go nocturnal about 10 days before a show. Amazing how much less likely your work is to be interrupted at 4:00 A.M. I started from zero after Newark and am up to 15. Maybe 10 or 12 more to go? I don't know. We'll see how it goes.

Due to scheduling constraints I'm not headed Chicago. However, I will have one pipe there with David Bull - a prize for the UPCA smoking contest. I'm going to be finishing it tomorrow.

I've also pretty much gone nocturnal, as I've got orders outstanding for about 15 pipes, and all of them need to be finished ASAP - of course. It would be nice if one or two of them made it to Chicago in the hands of the people they're being sold to - so I'm doing my best to get them completed and shipped in time to make that a possibility.

Rad,

You're a machine!

:)


I've got 2 remaining from the Newark show and--well, I haven't really completed anything since then. By tomorrow I will have nearly 60 pages of writing under my belt this week and will have only one more exam to prepare for. Sooo, that means that I'll be in the shop tomorrow and Monday and then hit it really hard from Wednesday until the following week's Thursday morning :) I'm shooting for 10-12 new pipes for the show. Nocturnal? I thought about taking an inflatable mattress to my shop this coming week. Then I remembered that I would not likely have any time to use it. :boohoo:

See you all, bleary-eyed and hallucinating from sleep deprivation, in Chicago!
