SHE’S CUTE OR WHATEVER

Big fan! Lately, I’ve definitely been smoking more than usual (and more than I should), but on the whole, it helps me get going in the right amount. In the mornings/ early afternoon, I’ll get my coffee and take a hit or two, and then I’m in the perfect balance of caffeinated and high. I love to cook with thc as well. I learned how to make infused beef stock, so with that and good ole cannabutter, I have made some pretty damn good meals. This is a lot of experimentation, and sometimes the experiment knocks me on my ass, but it’s all part of the fun for me. I do notice that I will sometimes fall in a cycle of smoking because I’m anxious, then getting even more anxious/ paranoid, then smoking some more to try and balance it out (this does not work).

We used to be best buddies.. but now we're not :(

I used to lovvve it. I would smoke every day for years with my friends and we would go on adventures exploring trails and fields (probably trespassed on someone's property like once a week lol whoops). If I was alone, I would smoke at home and clean or listen to music. It really was my escape, as corny as that sounds. BUT... all good things must come to an end, and unfortunately mine was about 3 years ago or so. This picture of Peter glitching is probably the best representation to how I feel now when i take a 5mg edible these days. One bad experience with a different substance occurred and ruined weed for me completely. Now, whenever I get high, or even inhale a bit too much secondhand smoke, my heart starts racing, I disassociate, and get flung into the most severe panic attack imaginable. It's like living in a nightmare for approximately 3 hours. Honestly, the worst part is explaining this to people and they reply with "you just have a low tolerance/you just need to try this strain/blah blah blah". I've tried easing myself back into it but nothing works, my brain just associates weed with danger now regardless of the strain. womp womp.

CAN BE DANGEROUS, FORCES YOU TO USE RESPECTFULLY AFTER A WHILE

unlike other people here I've had bad trips and bad highs and not been totally turned off of weed. but like all good things for me, it's incredibly specific and conditionial. mostly because I am actually, medically hypersensitive. everything I take and do is in comparatively small doses and my experience will peak at a certain dose and then nosedive from there. I started with like 25mg edibles and had a great time for a long time. eventually worked myself into reverse tolerance over the course of a bad year. not a huge deal, I just started doing it once a month again, or longer. and it really wasn't a hard transition for me. but one time when I was in my longest tolerance break I was offered half an edible and went yeah sure. um it was 50mg of a strain I already didn't like. I had fun for five minutes and then for three hours I couldn't talk and vertigo was so bad I couldn't move. wanted to throw up but I couldn't move a muscle in my body. and all I could see was stars in my vision. for the first time on weed I was actually tripping too. it's the only time I've been high that I remember extremely vividly y'know. thought I was gonna die the whole time. that traumatized me for a while and even then it took me a bit to finally stop all together. weed isn't addictive but my body was begging for something and that's all I knew. but nowadays I've found alternatives for everything but pain and the high itself, mainly adrenal suppliments and even then there's aleve and shit. I didn't think there's any risk to using edibles but apparently if you're chronically ill or getting reverse tolerance a green out can get really intense and actually be dangerous. but I think the "high" and "experienced user" amounts are 1. subjective and 2. kind of wild. even a 2mg edible can get me a good time so it's best to accept and learn that trying to achieve some kind of heroic dose of weed of all things is dumb. it doesn't do anything after a certain amount I promise. I mostly take edibles for pain because I don't want to be too dissociated. or I bump with other things for the fun of it. but I prefer to do it alone and make a little ritual out of it. it doesn't feel like a "party drug" to me it feels like the only way to get my body to relax a little yk

Movie marathoning

I’m usually a tv girl. I always binge watch series for hours sitting in my room, and I also have a strange habit of bailing on a show a few episodes before the series finale lol. Idk what that’s all about. Literally watched Ozark NONSTOP for days and then got to season 4 episode 2, and was like….suddenly i’m out. Currently working on bailing on Gilmore Girls because every character is in desperate need of a vow of silence. BUT recently I’ve been movie marathoning. Watching, like..three movies in a row. This seems super boring and normal, but it is like an exercise in paying fucking attention to one thing at a time, which I struggle with lol. Recently, my manager and I were upstate sitting by a fireplace and we watched Autumn Sonata, followed by the Blair Witch Project, and ended the day with Eyes Wide Shut. I’d never seen Eyes Wide Shut, it’s cuteness overload. Boobies galore. Autumn Sonata had me weeping - went into it thinking it was just a cozy fall movie about two girls who do nothing (my favorite genre) lmao. But yeah, having a movie marathon day instead of a watching tv while looking at your phone moment, is a lot more fun imo.

Bette Davis

I’m a Bette stan. I discovered her a couple years ago when I had covid and was locked away on my birthday in my bedroom with a bottle of wine and a plate of chicken and rice. I was raised on movies and tv, but I somehow never knew about Bette. I always knew the song, “Bette Davis Eyes” of course, but didn’t know just how special her eyes really are lol until I watched All About Eve. It was my 26th birthday, I was a little tipsy, and I was scrolling through movies on the TCM hub on Hbo Max and saw All About Eve, and was like…i’ve heard of this…let’s see what this is all about. I was not prepared for the obsession that was sparked in me the second I saw Bette. “YOUR FACE LOOKS LIKE A JUNK YARD” she said that! I was watching her perform, and was like…this woman is an Aries no doubt in my mind. Turns out her birthday is just a few days after mine. I wish I could have a joint birthday party with her. She’s so funny, so in control, and allows the camera to see every side of herself, the ugly and the stunning. Ive watched so many interviews of her, I follow all the stan accounts. I can’t get enough of her. She makes me want to perform. She makes me proud to be an insane aries woman.

Perfume perfume perfume

Obsessed with perfume. For a while I was searching for a signature scent, but then the hunt just became too much fun, and now I’ve ended up with a full on vanity tray in my bathroom piled with a different smell for every mood. I used to wear only China Rain, a rollerball scent my mom got me in high school from a perfumery in LA called Spiritbody. I still have a bottle of that, but when I wear it I’m transported to a more insecure time lol. Right now I love Shadow in the Water from Diptyque for when I want to smell clean and romantic. I wear Smudge by Heretic almost every day because it’s colder out and it makes me feel so warm and cozy, like i’ve been sitting by a fire all day, and like I give good advice and paint landscapes. Perfume is definitely a splurge, but it lasts for so long, and I think it’s really special to have a beautiful scent that people can recognize you by. I am going to gatekeep my secret combination of Byredo perfumes that I wear constantly, and I’m sorry about that. It’s just too good and too me.
