First time I smoked, nothing happened, the second time, I was in a mini aircraft, like a 140, and there was just me and my friend the pilot. He flew totally stoned!! Okay, now I'm older, I find this amazing, but at the time, I was about 15, I thought man, that's cool, but literally, he flew so much that getting high was nothing. Isn't that amazing? I think his dad was a pilot, and he was raised learning how to fly. Anyway it's common in Florida, trust me. Lots of people fly, just like driving. And he lit a joint and we smoked it. I think he was 18. And when we landed, the landing was so great, the landing lights were all lit and up and I was so relaxed. Wow. And then the next time I got really high, my friends took me to DisneyWorld and got me pretty baked in the SkyTram. Okay, so smoked occasionally until I got married and pregnant. My husband smoked every single day and so did I. (This was 22 years ago!) Yes, I smoked when pregnant. I did not smoke cigarettes, just weed. I had two children and decided to taper off, and finally stopped smoking in 1994. I have not smoked at all until this last weekend, when my now grown college attending daughters decided they wanted to smoke so we had a girls party, so I could explain the highs and what they were feeling. And we did, and my daughter left me a bud on the table, and I almost forgot what it was like being high and listening to Steely Dan until I actually did it again! Very cool. Why is this stuff illegal again? Please someone, explain it to me.
Anyways, that's me! Mom, work in IT, live in the `burbs, drive a Mercedes, and smoke weed! I am what my parents warned me against.
Fun to share,
