[cheebacheeba]

So close to writing it down... So how was the acid experience?

It was...not bad.
I'm gonna white out the rest of the post so, Un-invisible it if you want to read about my use of an illicit substance:

I'd only ever tried LSD in this form once before, some 20 years ago.
To put a timeframe on it:
"Tomb Raider 2" had just came out on the original Playstation, my friend had just acquired a pirated copy.

It was a little piece of paper with a picture of a dolphin jumping in front of a rainbow.
At this time, all I had was 1/3 of one along with copious amounts of weed myself and friends went through at this stage in our lives.

My impression then was...kind of disappointing.
All it seemed to do was keep us up all night, so I guess it counteracted the weed fatigue a bit...and it made lights/TV screens kind of get a "halo" but that was it, and there was no real perception change or anything that I noticed.

I've tried actual mushrooms since, I have to say I prefer their effect.

This time?
It came my way kind of by surprise via my regular greenery supplier.
This isn't usually his range at all...
I'd just quit my job (there's some more random talk), so I felt like "whatever", and I grabbed some of these for me and my people.

They were (again) little pieces of paper.
These ones have mini black and white pictures of owls on them - kind of like similar art to what you see in those adult/stress relief colouring books.

Of course with a child myself and the wife can't do it together...so when the kid was asleep, the wife kind of "babysat" me while I had it.

I'd decided just to do half.
About 15 minutes later, I decided "fuck it" and dropped the other half.
Tasted like nothing.

After about a half hour, a warmth spread throughout my body, and sensations and movement became a little bit "fuzzy".
I got quite lazy/couchlocked.
I had some green vapes with the wife before anything really came on, and I TRIED to watch "Beavis and Butthead do America"...disappointingly my PS4 seems to have a problem with playing this particular DVD, so it got turned off.

The wife brought out this platter of mixed foods...nice.
We started watching this ridiculous Australian tv show called "Swift & Shift Couriers" which is just...so dumb...but of course as things were kicking in, I found it hilarious.

I'm don't recollect too greatly how the rest of the night went.
I remember I couldn't really eat anything other than the grapes that were on the platter.

The body FELT great, kind of like that feeling you get in/across your muscles before/during a stretching yawn, but all over, and constant.
Quite an intense, pleasant feeling.

Visually nothing leapt out at me. I didn't see anything that wasn't there already.

I felt happy.

Distances, space, shadows and lighting got played with in my perception, and occasionally I'd "think I saw something" move in the corner of my eye.

Had the same "halo" around lights etc as the last time.

When I got up and walked around, it kind of felt like my body was made of cement...though I didn't have any trouble moving around...it just felt like, wow, I am moving this very big/heavy object around.

The most viusual the effects got, was surfaces and textures.
Kind of similar to what happens when you look into that spinning vortex thing then look at something else?
Almost like things were pulsing and morphing.
I got the "breathing" effect from surfaces too, where it appears they are moving towards you then back.

I drank some water here and there, and I was very hot.
Apparently I felt like I was freezing though.
I had this quite late in the night, so the wife went to bed at some point after making sure I was good to go.

Later on while in the bathroom (went there because I felt everywhere else was hot), I looked at my eyes in the mirror in which my pupils were constantly adjusting, big, small, big, small...I was colour sensetive so every minor blemish on my skin showed. I ended up just thinking "I'm not doing this..."

I turned the lights off, and noticed this tiny little bug from the fern I keep in there flying about my shower screen. I knew it was just one of them, but I couldn't track it's movement right so it looked like about 10.
I looked up at the ceiling - and it almost seemed as though I saw a weird webbed surface over things...then I guess my imagination came into play a bit, I thought for a moment I was looking at a hatched nest of tiny spiders...in that, I could tell it wasn't but the impression the shadows and visual lack of focus was giving me.

Could not sleep.
At all.
I think I ended up sleeping maybe an hour fitfully before the next day.
Felt great after, despite the lack of sleep.
I was in a little bit of a daze the day after, but nothing significant.
Had a GREAT sleep the night following though, fucking dropped.

The days to follow had me feeling sharper...almost as though the brain went through a reboot.
Overall, it was a nice, relatively tame, unfrightening experience.
...Don't know if I'd ever want two at a time though.

All in all, I still prefer the "real" thing but these were not bad.

You lucky ass mother fucker... I'm having trouble finding any kind of psychedelics and I live in Las fucking Vegas...

I never really look for them, these ones just kind of came my way.

I'm getting the feeling that cheebacheeba would like me a whole lot more if I went and took acid too.

Dunno. Maybe. Though my perception of people that use drugs isn't really that they're cooler or "my crowd" or anything like that. Just a thing that some people do. Might change your own perceptions a bit, who knows.
