How I got my marijuana habit

[kozmiq 70]

I recently mentioned here that I had a marijuana smoking problem that wasn't actually causing me a problem. It doesn't affect my work. It doesn't hamper me moneywise because Lord knows I got plenty. Several people including torridjoe offered advice to at least slow down. But this is what I've done.

I roll 3 regular sized doobies for each day. I smoke one at 9:30 AM and leave a roach. I wait until 3 PM and do another. Again leaving a roach. Then after dinner around 8 PM I smoke the last one leaving a roach. Then at 10 PM I break down the three roaches and fire them up in a bowl.

It's been working most of the time. At least there's some structure that I can adhere to.

 

I'm not expecting any attaboys but I am working on it. At least this way, my Lid will last a whole month.

You should try heroin.

[kutulu 1,676]

Not really under control, just more orderly. That being said, I like to smoke a little too.

[kozmiq 70]

I have. Toooooooo addictive.

[Dick Hertz 1]

Try Russian Roulette.

[GutterBoy 2,899]

Nice to see you've cut down and have it all under control now.

[cmh6476 1,025]

good for you

[MDC 7,413]

Three joints a day is "under control"? I smoke almost every day, but I wait until I'm off work and maybe have a bowl or two along with a beer.

Under control like swerski at a chinese buffet.

Yeah...after reading Koz's story I don't feel so bad about having a couple of hits off the one-ie on my way back from the gym after work/dinner.

What about lunch?

Anything to ease the pain of the failed marriage you are trapped in.

If I looked like you I'd smoke crack.

If you looked like him you'd fall in the crack.

9:30am joint under control

I'm just glad I don't have to smoke pot every day to dull the pain of life.

[TimmySmith 2,782]

That's alot of dope. Certainly not a recreational amount. More like a maintenance amount.

[kozmiq 70]

Oh look. It's 9:30 AM. Sometimes I like to hold off at my appointed times. Just to show this habit who's boss.

 

Uh, be right back.

[hoytdwow 202]

Too bad your habit doesn't keep you from posting on this bored.

I like having weed more than actually smoking it on a regular basis. When younger, I often wondered when I'd give it up; but just ended up using less and less each year. I generally only smoke between Memorial Day and Labor Day nowadays; usually outdoors. I used to worry about my parents finding out; but now I worry about my daughter finding out.

Like I have to worry about disappointing my DAUGHTER

that's sad.

I learned it by watching YOU, dad...I learned it by watching you...

I smoke almost every day, but I wait until I'm at lunch and maybe have a bowl or two along with a beer.

 

fixed.

 

You smoke every day?

 

What a focking loser. But then again, I guess it helps to kill the pain that is your life.

More than I worried about disappointing my parents.

That was sort of my point in the initial post. Unless somebody else told her; my daughter doesn't know.

 

 

That's sad.

 

Absolutely. And I'm quite certain that I'm the ONLY parent on earth of a 16 year old non-drug user who wouldn't advocate marijuana useage to my child and is thankful she has the good sense not to acquire some of the bad habits that I did.

 

 

I'm neither proud of or repentant that I still enjoy a toke every now and then. It's not an admirable trait and although I may defend myself to a certain degree; I wouldn't rationalize it. This may not be the most appropriate reference point; but I believe the movie Poltergeist fairly depicts casual or occasional smokers. Early in the movie; before their home becomes a living hell. The couple aren't a pair of freaks who live in a van down by the river and using dope is not what defines their existence. They're decent parents, the husband has a good job, they live in a nice house and don't want their kids to know.

while I agree with the assesment, you are stretching with the poltergeist reference. I think you protest too much.

 

now go roll a doob

not sure where you grew up, but your not the only parent... After hiding from my dad, I didn't find out until I was around 19 that he liked to party like I do. Makes golfing together and family vacation (road trips) that much more enjoyable

 

I used to smoke everyday in college, but it's much better when used for occasional use. Maybe after the bar on the weekend, vacations, golfing, etc...

[Mark Buffington 3]

I smoke almost every day.

That would explain your shitty short stories.

[jocstrap 8]

2003 that's it for me

2004 it's out the door

2005 it's time to revive

2006 I don't need the fix

I will give you an attaboy. I smoke between 3 and 6 joints a day with a blunt thrown in on occasion. I think of myself as a functioning addict. Smoking does not occupy all my time but I do like to be stoned when I can.I don't drink or use any other kind of drug so pot IS my vice. I have cut down a lot in the last month or so only smoking in the morning and at night and moving from my old apartment complex helps me out even more. When I was living at my old apartment complex I would have some neighborhood guys about 20 that would smoke tons of weed with me either for free or for whatever change I could throw on it. I would throw 2 bucks and smoke 3 blunts with them.

[lindust20 2]

I have never smoked pot.

 

 

My parents on the other hand......i'd say around 3 a day and i still think thats too much

[gratefulted 14]

After stopping for almost 15 years and after the kids are now on there own and I'm retired from work I started smokin' the bud again but I could only pull it off at nighttime (90% of the time) . Smoking during the day just makes me feel too lazy, for me though it beats the hell out of drinking.

[Concrete Charlie 0]

I take a bit of a joint on occasion, very enjoyable that way. Moderation is key, especially with the potency of today's herb.

[texasmouth 1]

I joined the military. They have a very interesting drug rehab program......
