I hit 500 drawers last month and the number stopped me cold

I was going through my shop log for March and realized I'd built my 500th drawer since opening the shop in my basement 6 years ago. Sounds like a lot until you think about it, that's only about 7 a month, and most of them were just shop cabinets and a few kitchen jobs around town. What got me was flipping back through the pages and seeing how sloppy drawer number 12 was compared to the dovetails I cut last week. I sat there for a good ten minutes just looking at that number. Does anyone else keep a log of what they build, or am I the only one nerdy enough to count drawers?

500 drawers is wild. I just scratch tally marks on the wall and lose count by Tuesday.
