usually drink some beer and tend the fire when at home, i also take a lot of notes/logs when practicing for a comp. I also do a lot of smoking at work, we have a pretty decent rig at the fire station....getting paid to smoke

first off i'd like to appologize for anyone that was following me yesterday we had a water heater emergency that required me to get away from the computer til way after midnight but the hot water is back on and here are the results! Right after i unwrapped and right before glazing and returning...
