Gold Canna-versary
Whoops, I missed it, by a day. On April 10, it was 50 years since I first smoked dope. (What, there's no pot leaf emoji? Hmm.) How do I remember the precise date? Well, April 8, 1972, was my best friend's 18th birthday, April 9, 1972, was when my Nana fell and broke her hip, never to return home, and the next day, I smoked my first reefer with Bobby Odom in their barn. I even remember it was Bill Japenga who gave me that "J" (rolled in Zig Zag wheat straw paper, of course). All these details! Who says pot affects your memory? 😊
Anyway, it's not really anything to celebrate. Definitely not going to "light up" for the occasion. Actually, I gave up the habit in 2016 for health reasons. Started again briefly when it became legal to buy in shops in California in 2018, but the novelty soon wore off. Only been very occasional since. Maybe a couple times this year thus far. A meaningless anniversary 'cept for trivia's sake when it comes right down to it. Sorry to've wasted your time reading about it! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
