I have written and made a few references about marijuana in my posts. I know it’s a hot topic these days, especially after it was legalized in Washington and Colorado. People have varying opinions, and I am not one that enjoys stirring shit up. The truth is though, for me, it’s the only break I get from pain. It helps me better than any pill my doctor gives me.
I don’t spend my day in my jammie’s getting stoned. It’s usually in the evenings before bedtime. Like drinking a cup of chamomile tea. Ah.
I keep it a secret from most people, because I hate the stigma of being a pot head. My husband is fine with it, and is in agreement with me. That people should be able to purchase it legally, and especially for medical usage. Sure, there are pro’s and con’s. Yes, it can be abused. But so can Dr. Pepper. My daughter is addicted to that shit something awful. It’s not a necessity, but I suppose you could say I use it like some women would use a glass of wine. To just be able to relax, laugh a little, and forget that I feel like a petrified turd. Without the headache and hangover.
There is humor in the idea of me having to hide in my closet with a can of air freshener. It’s very hard to come by, especially for a suburban 38-year-old women. I know one person who I trust. The transaction is very hush hush and planned out meticulously.
It would be so much easier to just go buy a bottle of chardonnay.
After reading the article below, I realized I am not the only one.
Great read. In creating my new blog and thinking about everything I want to write about and share, this is a subject I am still wavering on. I too have had more benefit from the herbal medicine as opposed to the processed pills being hawked on the white market. It is good to see reform beginning to take hold in some states…it gives hope that eyes are opening. I live in a state where it is legal for medical use, but we are still a ways away from society having a clear, full understanding of its benefits.
What needs to happen first is the idea that marijuana is for lazy people, stoners and low brow humans. Tit for tat, isn’t the beer drinkers of the world the same thing?
I am a 38yr old married man and I agree with you. People like us just like to relax and marijuana happens to be our method of choice. Me personally I don’t like wine so Mary Jane was the next best option.
Thank you for sharing your point of view on this. I am curious to see how many are pro or con.
I’ve been supporting the use of pot for medicinal purposes since the 60′s. In the past, I was a big, big supporter. Now, it’s too controversial a subject and I shy away from the subject. But, if it helps you, then you go, girl!
It is controversial, I might even lose a few followers, but it is something I feel the need to get off my chest. Thank you!
That’s what blogging’s all about..getting things out there. I don’t think anyone’s gonna call the cops!
I deal with pain everyday and so does my SO. Pain meds only do so much..Fl does not allow medical pot yet unless it’s cancer so we’re out of luck.
Yes, waiting for the fuzz to show up at any moment!
I say so what you need to so that you can feel better! <3 much love.
Pass the spliff man
OMG did I sound like a pot-head…truly I ain’t. 
You did say it! You are too cute!
While I’ve never toked, puffed, or hit, I know several people who do, and many others who have in the past… and they are (mostly) very decent people! Even a few decent squirrels…..

I don’t get why pot is considered worse than alcohol. Some people go home everyday and have a glass of wine. Some people go home everyday and toke a bowl. I don’t now, but I did before I got pregnant with my daughter. I watched my ex spend $1000/month on it, and that kind of turned me off to it, but if I could go to the corner convenience store and buy a pack of joints, I would totally do it in a half-a-heartbeat.
“Can I get a pack of Mary Jane lights, please?”
Not surprised you would agree with me.
I believe it helps your pain. I just like the shit with no medical reasons to justify it. I do miss it, but it isn’t worth it with Donkey on my ass like he is. Plus, I’d rather he be the one busted in court. But if it weren’t illegal…
Slowly but surely. I might be old as fuck by then though.
