I’ve been intending to revisit it once it became legal. I had been looking forward to the summer of 2018, but, oh, well.
I checked out the Ontario site when it went live, and then headed to bed.
But I had to pee and got up in the night to do so. Grabbed my phone, and lo, it was 12:48 a.m. BC’s site was online. And looked remarkably like Ontario’s.
I’d already noted my credit card info in my phone, so I looked around, and ordered some prerolled, some loose, and some rolling papers.
I’m actually quite intrigued to revisit this. I already drink alcohol, and do believe marijuana is as harmless/harmful as alcohol. I do believe it doesn’t lead to as much stupid aggression as booze does.
I didn’t notice any haze over my city this morning, nor anything different from yesterday. Until I took the dog for a walk at the local university. There is now, in a nice spot, with a view to the water, a designated cannabis smoking/vaping spot. I snapped a picture, and texted a few friends.
I’m mildly impatient for my mail order to arrive, but as I’ve recieved no updates on the shipping yet, and rolling Canada Post strikes a possibility, I’m thinking I’ll just have to take a deep breath and wait some more.
I quit smoking cigarettes, but goddamn, I miss smoking, so part of me is really keen on having this as a once in a while indulgence.
