We Got Weed and that's All We Need




So, its Friday, and not just any Friday, but one on the end of a three day holiday weekend. Now, my roommate, Kayla, smokes just as much weed as I do and we get along with each other great. We went down to the marketplace for dinner with Lizet and then afterwards we stopped by our dealer's house, DJ, to pick up an eighth of Lemon and a dub of Green Haze. Then we went back up to our room to try out our newly purchased product. We smoked a bowl of the lemon (which actually smelled lemony) and then we decided to walk to the local smoke shop near by and buy grinders. Kayla had just lost hers and I had been wanting to buy a really nice one. While we were smoking, we had a great conversation about how life is meant to be enjoyed and taken slowly, because we were in no rush. Anyways, we walked to the smoke shop and had a look at all their cool pieces. I totally love just looking at all the amazing designs and systems people come up with for smoking weed. I ended up getting a 4 piece Sharptstone that's a pretty decent size for only $25. I also bought some orange chronic pipe cleaner and cleaned out my pieces before we smoked. The grinder works amazing and I hope it collects a lot of kief.

When we got back, we smoked a bowl from my bubbler, while Kayla rolled a blunt, all while listening to music. We then met up with two more friends, Maurice and Stacy, and smoked the blunt on the stairs by the baseball field. Then we all headed back to the dorm to watch paranormal activity. Before we started the movie, we decided to order pizza from dominoes. The pizza and the movie were the shit and overall it was an awesome chill night with my friends.

Pot Bust in WA

Because I am from Seattle, I like to keep up with what's going on over there (now that I'm in LA), so every morning, I read the Seattle Times online. On Wednesday, 30 people in Snohomish county got busted with thousands of pot plants. Too bad, we could sure use the weed in dreary depressing Seattle. The thing that caught my eye about the article, however, was the front that the pot growers were using: A gardening store! I mean could you be more obvious? Even TV shows like weeds can come up with less suspicious fronts than a gardening store with an "herb" garden. Other sad news is that prop 1068 is likely not to make the ballot due to a shortage of signatures. The excuse? Organizers blame the bad spring weather. Well, I'm still pulling for Cali to legalize. Either way, I plan on getting my med card soon.

Jolly Rancher Blunt Wraps

I was just thinking about how I like flavored papers or blunt wraps way better than the regular ones. And then it hit me. What if the Jolly Rancher candy company made flavored blunt wraps. That would be delicious! It would be like eating candy and getting high at the same time. What could be better? They could even make the wraps so that when you rolled a joint or a blunt, it actually even looked like a long jolly rancher. Another idea I had would be to have flavor changing blunt wraps, like they now have for gum. What do you guys think?

Acetone Does the Trick

So, if you don't know by now, I am doing summer chemistry research at my college over the summer. Both my bowl piece and my bubbler, which are both glass, have gotten amazingly filled with resin. I tried cleaning it out with water, and that helped, but they were still pretty gross. I know you can use alcohol to clean them, but in my lab, to clean things we always use acetone, so I decided to bring my pipe into lab last night while no one was there and I cleaned them just using acetone. I worked perfectly! Plus, it was free and close by. What substances have you used to clean your piece with?

Glass on Glass

As I mentioned in a previous post, this summer I am doing chemistry research at my college. One thing I noticed while I have been in lab is how almost all the instruments ad tools are made from glass. They have beakers that look just like ash catchers and tubes that could function as percs. I was thinking of taking some of the equipment and fashioning myself a nice glass on glass bong made from chemistry lab parts. I'm not exactly sure of the design so if you have any ideas or suggestions, leave a comment!

I'm Okay

I'm about to share with you an embarrassing and slightly painful event that I brought upon myself. Needless to say, I was stoned out of my mind and it was a beautiful warm morning here in Southern California. I had my backpack on, my headphones in my ears and my sunglasses on my face. I was walking down to the library on campus so I could return a book and then do a bit of reading for class outside on the grass in front of the softball field. As I was heading down the hill from my dorm towards the steps that led down to lower campus, I saw someone who I didn't know, but passed by frequently. I don't think we had ever spoken a word to each other before, and I didn't know his name.

Nonetheless, in the blissful state I was in, I decided to say a friendly hello. He, however, was not walking towards me, but in the same direction, but I was faster, so when I passed by him, I said all too loudly (because of my headphones) and with a wave, "Hello!" His response was to give me a face that clearly said "who the fuck are you, crazy lady?" but it certainly didn't put a damper on my mood. I had a lot of energy and decided it was a good idea to slide down the railing of the stairs instead of walking down them. I had never slid down a railing before, so I look back to see if the other guy was watching me (because I didn't want to look stupid if I went super slow), but he had decided to walk the long way down around the ramp.

So, I start at the very top and start sliding down. Everything is going great, and I'm gaining speed very quickly, so I put my hand on the railing to slow myself down. Immediately I realize that I used to much pressure, because instead of slowing down, I abruptly stop. Right before I fall over backwards onto my backpack, I say loudly, "oops!" which of course causes the otherwise oblivious guy to turn and look at me awkwardly laying on the ground. "I'm ok!" I say, but he really doesn't seem to care, so I get up and dust myself off.

I was quite embarrassed but too high to really care, so I just bounded off on my way. The fall didn't hurt too bad, thanks to my backpack and sliding down the railing was a lot of fun.

Legalization

My mom just told me to smoke weed. Well, sorta. I called her on Skype a few hours ago for a video chat, my once weekly contact with home. Needless to say, I was high, and quite obviously, she noticed. Then she brought up how Washington State is voting to legalize marijuana for recreational use for people 18 years or older. Then she told me to vote for it and that she was going to vote for it. I know its because she has a secret desire to smoke pot! She tried to cover it up by saying it was because she didn't want her children to end up in jail. I then pointed out that cops don't arrest people for marijuana and she was being ridiculous. I am definitely going to vote FUCK YES on initiative 1068 so that I can legally smoke wherever the fuck I want to in public in WA. Plus, I could start my own garden, because if the bill passes then it will also be legal to grow and sell. Drug dealer could become a legitimate career.
