Immoderation?

Post by Kip » Fri Sep 09, 2016 3:30 pm

I've been known to over-partake in cigars on occasion. But, I've never felt like I truly overdid it with much frequency. Until today

As I've been sorting through all the files while organizing the computer, I see I have assembled what can only be called an epic collection of cigar pictures. Thousands. With an "s" - and not just two. Not artsy kinds of pictures that I've gotten from other folks - pictures I have personally taken of whatever I'm smoking. Some for reviews, sharing online, etc. - but most never went anywhere beyond my phone/camera and hard drive.

I'm sorting them into folders by manufacturer, and then by line. I'm up to 103 manufacturers and haven't even touched the pictures saved online in Google Photos (of which there are something more than 4,000, because I've maxed out two albums and begun a third). This is just what's on my hard drive. This was all disguised by the fact that they were hiding all over the hard drive. Once I started dumping them into a central folder for sorting, I'm a bit taken aback at the sheer volume. Yes, there are duplicates. Yes, some cigars have quite a few different views/progression shots. Nonetheless, this is crazy.

These days, I smoke fewer cigars than I have in years - but apparently for some time I was going nuts. Having a tobacco license from 2011-2015 was a pretty big enabler.

Now, none of this changes any of my future plans. I just noticed.

I just offloaded 2900 pictures from my sd card in my phone. I know that at least 60% of those are cigar pics. I feel your pain Kip. I also have another bunch from the last phone I had that I have never done anything with as well. I never thought I would fill up a 32 gig memory card with mainly cigar pics....ugh.
