Yes.

Friend went to CO recently and sent an e-mail to all of our social group taking orders.

We are all professionals and parents as well.

its legal now in some places.

I disagree about not addictive.
Propaganda.
Im sure some can take it or leave it but thats true for alcohol too.

Anything that changes your brain chemistry can be addictive - so weeds level of addiction and impact of that addiction is similar to other mild stimulants.

Dabs and the other concentrate shite is different than what I'm talking about here.

Also, edibles are almost a different substance because of the way it is metabolized creating a chemical that isnt active when it is smoked.

Point being, you have to sort of categorize what you are talking about in the same way as booze. Coming home and having 3 or 4 beers or a glass of wine most nights isnt a problem. Someone coming home and drinking several stiff whiskey drinks every night is a problem.

Doesn't Florida have medical now as well? I could see North Carolina and maybe Georgia going medical pretty soon. Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, Louisiana, and Mississippi are going to hold off as long as possible, though there's been a medical marijuana bill in the Alabama legislature the past 5 or 6 years. It actually made it out of committee last year for the first time. Don't think it made it to the floor though. The bill has been pre-filed for this current session again. Seems to gain more support each year, but still a long way to go.

Florida is the only state left that needs to legalize. Just about everywhere else worth visiting is legal

Nah, that's when you need to start.

I didn't like being high around my kids when they were infants and toddlers. I didn't do that much at all then, but they were total buzzkills.

We've got very limited medical. It's basically oil and metered inhalers as the delivery methods, and a limited list of qualifying conditions. I heard some whispers that the legislature may expand the conditions list in the upcoming session, but that remains to be seen.

Drinking whiskey then beating your wife = not trashy

The only reason I don't partake is because I get random tested for work.

If not for that, I'd probably spark up a little bit on Friday/Saturday night after the kids are asleep or with the grandparents.
