so, i tried to get some high thc / low cbd marijuana when i was in toronto to prevent me from falling asleep when i smoked it.

this pot is remarkably dry - it's more comparable to the basil or oregano in your cupboard than it is to any kind of high quality bud. but, my plan didn't work very well.

i had about a half a gram left.

so, i rolled a small joint at 7:30 yesterday morning, and i napped from it for most of the morning. i tried to smoke another one at about 15:30, and slept until after midnight. i smoked the last little bit this morning at around 3:00 and am just waking up now.

so, a sixth of a gram of this pot knocks me out for six-ten hours at a time. i have a low tolerance, and i know that cbd makes me tired, but i'm not inexperienced with marijuana - i smoked my first joint in 1996. right now, i feel less like i've smoked a half a gram of pot and more like i swallowed a bottle of lorazepam.

i kind of saw this coming, though. what they did in ontario was essentially to allow the medicinal business to sell recreational product. and, i've been clear on the point - the idea that marijuana is some kind of medicine is retarded, it's purely a recreational drug. but, what that means is that the strains you can buy in the store were mostly designed for couch potatoes and lifers, and all they're really going to do is make you take a nap.

the reality is that it's shitty pot for sale here in canada.

...and i hope that the pot in detroit is a little better, when they open the stores.
