At the end of the afternoon I would much rather be high than drunk, but when recreational weed became legal our life changed! I used to go to the bar with our friends and try to resist drinking.
I hated that when I drank I would be absurd and sloppy.
I tend to lose motor skills and fall down. I hated peeing in the bar bathrooms and taking in pointless calories due to the mixers, and booze is pretty extravagant for not a great product. I don’t even adore the taste of alcohol. I would be buying some I don’t adore or the sensation I get afterwards. What genuinely stunk was the hangover next door. I would be vomiting, have a headache and be out of commission. I couldn’t work out, do some work and the rest of our weekend would be wasted… Now that recreational pot is allowed, it is a whole new world. Being high is so much safer. I am calm and reflective or focused and fun. I can smoke in the safety of our own lake home since I live near a recreational weed dispensary. I don’t have to worry about dirty bathrooms or getting hurt. I also don’t fall down, get loud or totally ruin our following afternoon, after you smoke and come down from the high, that is it, however there is no hangover or sickness. I can adore our Tuesday with a great workout, get some work done and feel great all afternoon. I don’t understand how anyone would rather drink booze over smoking a joint.
