I was in high school during that brief period when E was pretty easily available and not yet illegal, so a lot of my friends tried it but somehow I never had a good opportunity. And in college, well, I was told that E was like watered down acid, so why bother.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think it depends on what you need to go there for. For food, this weekend is going to be a nightmare. For gifty type things, Black Friday will be worse.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Yeah. I was thinking maybe early on the Sunday after Thanksgiving might be best, but I just don't know.
eta: I will primarily be buying food, but I still have to deal with the check out lines, and I may browse the other stuff.

Always Anti-fascist!
I think I would like ecstasy so much that that is all I would want to do if I did it.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
The only kind of bad thing was not being able to get to sleep after
For me it was the next day, where I felt super-jetlagged (low on serotonin).

I had that conversation, except about cocaine, once with a guy I was friends with in college. We agreed that competitive perfectionist types should not even look in its direction for fear of addiction.
This weekend I need to make PLANS. Tomorrow is mr. flea's birthday and I got nothin'. I somehow doubt that getting him a fancy camera a year ago will count for much.

Does Costco do Black Friday sales? I don't even know. Seems like both options will be such high levels of OMG People to make it hard to distinguish between them. Sorry you have to deal with that, Perkins.
This weekend: tomorrow I am Discovering Martinez. A bunch of restaurants will have free samples and the theater I have had season tickets to forever will have an open house thing - they are trying to convince all the people who think Martinez is, I don't know, really far away from Walnut Creek or something that they should keep going to plays out there since they (the theater) lost their Concord location. Martinez is closer to me, but I'm going to take advantage of the wooing. Sunday I'm taking DH to the airport in the morning and then I don't know.

That has been my feeling about opium since I read Kubla Khan in high school. Coleridge as cautionary tale.

Coding and Sleeping
My weekend will probably be busy.
I need to work on a coldframe plant growing thingie I'm building. Possibly painting. I need to clean up a bit in the basement. I need to help my daughter study. There's something I'm forgetting. In between doing all that I'm going to try to sneak in some writing and doing a critique.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah. I was thinking maybe early on the Sunday after Thanksgiving might be best, but I just don't know.
I think that's right. I will say, I have never been shopping in a crowd the weekend after Thanksgiving -- I don't go anywhere Friday morning, of course, and never to Costco that weekend, either.
