Default Oil cunsumption

Just wondering.. how much is 'normal' oil consumption?

I changed oil before 1000miles, and now it's missing approx 1/3 (maybe even half) of a quart... I guess this is normal, right?
This is with medicore hard driving (sometimes slow, sometimes slamming it).

That seems on the high side, but I wouldn't be overly worried. 1qt per 3000 miles isn't huge... but any more, and I'd be worried.
