And, so, noticing the quality of stoned on the small quantity of Marijuana Sticks I bought...
First, the procession of aimless and unrelated imagery. Completely random, pictures assembling and animating themselves in my head for no reason that I can put a finger on.
It's entertaining, I can see why this is popular.
And secondly, the cavalcade of childhood memories that erupt in association with said images. Memories long forgotten, who knows, maybe they don't even exist, but they erupt in association with the images - which - I should note, have no relation whatsoever with them, these images, they never existed, but they seem by random channels of thought I have yet to decipher to percolate to the surface, a longing, haunting memory of childhood, the emotional quality preserved so fresh as if I were reliving it...
I'm going to have to try this a bit more. I'm curious.

This year, it seemed, a little quieter than others, but, all in all still a good time. A few of the usual faces, light conversations, the son & his friends, chat, dance, party the night away until 7:00 AM...
Then, a brief sleep and the long days to recovery. There was a Lunar Beltane, Winlaw, for the next 3 days, but I need to work on my Stamina, one night and I'm bloody exhausted.

It's here. It was here, really, about a week ago, but the past couple of days it's really settled in. 30 degree weather, sunny days, cool nights, every tree now in full leaf, it's going to be a glorious summer. Only it's about 6 weeks early, but after the winter that seems really to be a trifle.
But I wonder, 30+ degrees May 15, what will the end of June bring? Fire season? +40 degree weather? Already the drive home is interrupted by emergency alerts and evacuations for Northern BC. Fires, burning out of control, Dawson, Stoddard.Creeks...

Dating

This is a list of some of my best -- AND WORST -- dates ever. Note that you gotta go on a lotta dates to get this kinda list, this kinda discouraged. And my online dating thing has been sporadic - an every few years kind of thing at best. Some of these dates go back 10 years, others are a little more recent. And to answer any people who might argue "It beats hooking up at the bar", well, you don't have to hook up at the bar, and at the bar you can see what your getting...
Anyways - apologies to the countless normal, decent dates that I went on but just didn't hit it off with. Memory is selective, it tends towards the extreme, and in this you will find the extremes...
