But you never see them fing

I assume many people must think I take a lot of drugs. I don't blame them, I do behave quite strangely. Really though, while I'm certainly not an "anti-drug" type person, I don't have much interest in getting high. I've smoked pot once or twice in the last two years, I just don't much like the way it makes me feel. I all ready think too much, live in an unreal world and I am super paranoid about what other people may or may not be thinking about me. Pot just takes all those things I don't like about myself and enhances them.

Last night, for the first time, I tried mushrooms. At first I was hesitant. I was expecting uncontrollable craziness and hallucinations and fears beyond imagination. I have no will power though, so when the peer pressure began I crumbled. I agreed to take "a little bit": the gateway amount. After half an hour or so I still wasn't feeling anything so I took a little more and then when people left and it was just Melissa, Megan and me the dynamic changed and we went on a rampage that nearly destroyed Melissa's basement.

I didn't have anywhere near as much as Megan and Melissa. Megan was obsessed with the feeling of water on her hands and kept trying to find things in paintings. Melissa got lost in the floor tiles and eventually somehow created a story that involved me saving her face from melting into the faces in the tiles. Later, chickens were also involved somewhere, she saw the green kitchen separate into blue and yellow and she ended up sitting alone in the bathtub- Iceland, her safe place.

I just wanted to dance. A lot. And not like club dancing, like spinning in circles and drunken hippy dancing (of course I was drunk) and writhing on the floor. Also, I was pretty sure I couldn't take off my sombrero without suffering dire consequences, which would explain why I am wearing it in every picture of me taken last night.

Verdict: It was a lot of fun, I have no regrets other than smoking half of a random cigar I found in the backyard. I want to do it again, except next time, I want there to be chickens and face melting and colour separation.


Here is a picture of Melissa dancing with a Darth Vader cut-out whilst I dance with a second sombrero:

Don't take this the wrong way, but the sombrero is not sexy. I've never tried these mushrooms of which you speak, but i'm suddenly very interested to know what my brown table would separate into...

it was my cigar, which no longer makes it random. Glad you guy and gals had a good time after everyone left! See you tonight for cheap beers in the hammer!

Gotta love just having a Darth Vader cutout AND sombrero laying around.

Personally, I'm of the opinion that everyone should wear a sombrero.

Loz, I rather like it. I think I may start wearing one all the time.

Dianna, I remember now that it was yours, which is a relief. I'm going to get my dance on again tonight.

Aaron, Melissa's house is full of the craziest things. It made the whole experience that much more entertaining.

Nick, I completely agree.

You know, not all mushrooms cause inebriation.

Did you buy them at the supermarket?

Ubie, Megan bought them from some guy who I can only imagine was incrediby sketchy. I'm pretty sure though if I wanted to I could score some drugs from the staff at the 24 hour A&P.

Nads, Nick got the exact same message. He probably had a similar reaction.
