dude, i completely agree. I feel the same way sometimes, though i will typically smoke before work just because i can, i dont really anymore, i get sorta paranoid there, not the customers, more the other employees i feel notice, but only because we have so few employees we all know each other rather well.

but the after work, calm down, anti-stress, anti-anxiety smoke is always the best. I feel it helps so much that i even cut on my usual way home, which is actually a rather large road, and high traffic is always afoot. though it sorta makes it easier, the cops are less likely to be targeting people to help keep the flow smooth.

and i never really think about it as being medicinal for me, because in my state medical MJ is still sorta strange, its legal, but if you get caught they take all your stash and give a 100 dollar fine, plus to get MMJ you would pretty much have to have all your limbs cut off, and pretty much know the governor. Much less having access to medical grade MJ would be impossible. But there is still hope, NORML is passing another bill expected to hit the WH when obama is in it if they can have their way.
