Today’s post will probably see how anally retentive you are.

I smoke pot. I don’t drink stuff all, a red wine on ocassion, thats it. When I am pissed I am a loud mouthed arse hence I don’t drink very often lol. When I am stoned well I am not much different from when I am straight. And no I’m not in denial lol, my mates will tell you the same thing. What’s the point of todays post?

I am sick to fucking death of people putting people in “categorical boxes”. Oh she smokes pot, shes a drug addict. Guess what I have smoked it on and off since I was 16 actually. I have had blocks of years where I haven’t. I don’t use hard drugs … cocaine, heroin, needles, or any of that mad rubbish, I am not fucking stupid lol. Lol you know what they say pot leads to hard drugs … bollocks. Alcohol is a drug. Med’s are drugs. Funny that people can quite easily take depressants because they are prescribed … errmm they are dangerous and more addictive than bloody weed… so what’s the fucking difference????

I have held down jobs quite happily, worked in schools, taught classes, worked in high pressure jobs, run a business, I don’t smoke during the day, I won’t smoke around my son and I will literally knock someone’s block off if they do it in front of my son. Some of the best artwork I draw and some of the best writing I do is when I am stoned. So fucking what??? I like to have a pipe or a bong as a way to unwind after a stressy day. Some people have a wine, some a bath I have a smoke.

I started smoking weed as a kid, out in the back paddocks at the farm, there are some who seem to have an addictive personality, those people should not touch anything … my sister is one of them, she cannot handle her alcohol or herself. I was a mean big sister and put her on her arse with a damn good smoke one day, and I will do the same to my son if I think he needs it … I scared her so much shes never touched the shit again. I live by one rule … know what the fuck you are doing and know what the fuck you are taking. If you have a history of mental illness in your family stay the fuck away from pot and anything else.

One of my flatmates years back was a dealer and my god if you knew half the people buying pot of him you would be highly shocked hehe. NZ is full of pot smokers, the town I live in is referred to as “blow city” lol. Actually if I go out clubbing which is rare these days … guarenteed I could come back with weed lol. No dark alleys, half the bar staff used to sell shit. I have been around gangs, the works, respected and luckily looked after and safe… mainly because this mouth of mine can say the right thing at the right time and I was alot more intelligent than half of them, they respected it lol. That lifestyle is well gone. I hear of old friends who are just street bums now and hooked on meth. It’s sad.

None of my partners have been pot smokers. And the majority of the time I have stopped out of respect for them, and because I can just simply stop and I do respect other people, if they are uncomfortable with me being stoned around them I don’t so it, simple. I won’t go out in public and be all stoned lol, I do it at home at night when I haven’t got loads of work on. It annoys me how easy I find I can simply walk away from smoking pot but yet I have a real uphill battle with cigarette smoking. By the way I haven’t smoked ciggies “WOOP” doing well.

I could go on and on about all the historical points, the advantages and disadvantages etc but what’s the point, people have their opinions. I have a life, I don’t sit on my arse all day and act like a vegetable, quite the opposite lol and this brain of mine is fine. And yes I do suffer from short term memory loss lol, I dunno if it is pot related though, I’ve always been a ditz.

I decided to write this because of an avid kinksters blog I had a read on yesterday Catalina’s blog actually. She smokes pot too, and so do a couple of my subbie friends. And you know what, they all rock! They aren’t afraid to be who they are. I usually find the people who are so damn anally retentive are the ones who have actually never tried anything in their lives, the preach, sorry can’t preach about something you have no knowledge of bar what the media tells you. And quit preaching.

I belong to a group that is behind legalizing it for personal use. Why? As a qualified herbalist I actually suggest using it for pain relief via a vaporiser … it’s a natural herb, and it’s been used for centuries. Hell I use it for backache, period pain, and I had chronic repetitive strain injury pain for years, it relieved it. I would rather have a spliff, a giggle and a damn good crazy conversation over a drink anyday. So shoot me lol.

Yes vixen is a stoner. And yes I know some may not agree with it … who the fuck cares.

Maybe the masochist in me likes losing a little control lol.
