Education through experimentation.
In the time since my last post, I have tried and learned several things. I have smoked meth, done hot rails, made my own crack, smoked said crack, and learned quite a bit about various techniques for rocking coke, vaporizing meth without burning it or scorching your pipe, and a brilliantly simple method of cleaning a burned pipe for when it eventually gets gross.
Of all of this, I am tickled that I was able to make my own tiny rock. The high was glorious but very short (as my gurus and research had advised). While I'm sure I'll do it again, it is a lot of time and effort spent for a high that doesn't last. In a small scale, it just isn't worth it for what you get. At least not on the regular.
Smoking meth had a bit if a learning curve. I scorched the hell out of my first attempt. I have learned that a torch really isn't necessary and to take my time heating the pipe slowly and carefully while keeping the flame well away from the glass. The goal is to melt the crystal and then vaporize the liquid. Inhaling the vapor is rather pleasant. Inhaling the smoke of burnt meth tastes like ass-balls.
I'm still in an apparent minority that doesn't get a "high" feeling on meth. Though my dealer agrees, it's just a ton of energy and supreme focus. It motivates with a complete annihilation of procrastination. Also removed are, appetite and need for sleep. (Take vitamins, force a real meal, schedule some rest). My meth experiments resulted in what I have learned are "meth burps" and the worst heartburn of my life. Seriously, not cool.
Hot rails were fun but really only seem like a stunt to pull in front of someone who has never seen it. Just dusting it up and snorting as per usual seems to have the best/longest-lasting effect.
As for the hardware, there was much debate regarding the best way to clean a pipe. The smartest person advised to not just "burn off the gunk" as this weakens the glass. Getting your bowl too hot, will make pits in the glass and breakage will occur sooner rather than later.
The winning method was to put half water, half beach into a coffee cup. Just enough to cover the bowl of your pipe. Set the pipe in gently and microwave for two minutes. This comes out super hot so handle carefully (I use tongs). I pour the mixture into and through the pipe to get the stem (my pipe is small and narrow). Immediately, wipe the inside of the bowl with a cotton swab and then rinse, rinse, rinse. Pour the mixture into the toilet when done for extra credit cleaning points. Allow pipe to dry (to speed things up *lol* you can heat it with a bow drier or torch as long as you keep it off the glass).
Fun experiments and I've learned a ton but Cocaine is still my number one. Nothing gets me there like some really good blow.
I think my next post I'll do a show and tell of paraphernalia both designed for drug use and things that are just naturally suited to repurposing.
Thanks for reading, tumblrs! Be safe and look out for your fellow humans.
