Nov 3

It's funny now that it's legal in this state. I am old, as are my friends. The guys get together to complain that this hurts, that hurts, and that "It's not the same country we grew up in!" Then we turn to discussing pot, and what is common is that we have am adjustment disorder post-legalization. We don't drive high, but are still anxious if we have a small, fully legal bit of weed in the car. Gone are the days of 50 years ago, when as college students, we drove with pounds of the stuff, etc. (Lots of etc)

I live in the sticks, far away from the road, yet since legalization I am more aware of smoking a joint while gardening. But good weed is the best medication for this adjustment disorder, especially nights filled with happiness and merriment when Harris crushed the sociopathic felon.
