it’s 4/20 so that means it’s time for me to share my one and only experience with weed for y’all’s entertainment.
So, my partner had one of those vape pen things, I think. Anyway it used little cannabis oil canisters, but one day one of them broke. Not wanting to waste the oil, my partner had the brilliant idea to pour it into a brownie mix and cook up some pot brownies.
Well, turns out using that highly concentrated oil in a brownie mix is a bad idea. Because it didn’t mix evenly? At least that’s our running theory. Either that or I’m just REALLY sensitive in the worst way possible to weed.
Anyway, so we make these disaster brownies. I have 1, because why not, I’ve never done a single drug in my life. Never smoked. Never drank alcohol. Might as well do ONE fun thing.
For the first half hour or so, I didn’t feel anything. Then I got high.
I took some notes... while I was high as shit... and um... they’re mostly incoherent nonsense, but then there’s this gem:
Being high is like being in another medium. Like, I was an oil painting before, but now I’m a watercolor.
I’m punching holes in and out of the dimensions. They’re lined up like papers. I can hole-punch to jump through.
Guess I’m poetic as fuck when I’m stoned to high heaven. Wouldn’t do it again though. Why? Um, here’s a brief list of my symptoms while stoned:
I got really hot? Like hot flashes? And all of my nerve endings felt like they were on fire? Not like a really painful fire, just a warm, buzzing fire. I could barely type things on my phone. Everything seemed to take FOREVER. Like I’d sit there on the couch for 15 minutes and swear up and down that 85 years had passed. Oh and I got some wicked visuals which looked like a rainbow overlay with pulsing glittering humanoid figures spinning around like a kaleidoscope. It was soooper weird.
So maybe I got a high dose. Maybe i have an extremely low tolerance (I’ve read that some people who are ADHD/Autistic have odd reactions to various chemicals, cannabis included and like, caffeine makes me sleepy, so idk it could be that.)
TLDR: I did weed exactly once, it was WILD and I’m never doing it again.
