I dunno maddash, something isn't adding up in this perfect picture you paint.
No laptop. I wouldn't disrupt the moment with something like that. I got home around 6:00, got a cigar out of my little humidor box, made up a glass of scotch, and sat down on a rocking patio chair for a while just to listen to the birds and watch the squirrels. 50 minutes later I came back inside to post about it. Sometimes I'll just stay out there all night and listen to the game on the radio. Even though I live in the city, it's always nice and quite (for the most part).

A Macanudo, but I generally buy a grab bag of cigars. Everything from Gurkha to Arturo Fuente... I like the Vegas 5s, Hoyo de Monterrey, Don Tomas, Romeo y Julieta... not too many I don't like (although I've never been a big fan of Punch).

I wouldn't say it's a cheap hobby, but it's really not that bad. I usually get the cheaper to mid-range stuff, I'd say I average $2.5 a cigar. So an investment of $100 will get me 40 cigars, and I have just enough room for all those in my humidor. That batch will basically last me the whole year - although I'll buy some more here and there. I smoked that Macanudo for a good 40 minutes last night, and could have saved the rest for later but decided to chuck it - so for $2.5 (or so) a smoke, you really get some lasting value out if it.

I love the Romeo y Julieta Anniversario.

This is a great cigar I've gotten into recently:
