Cannabis News and Opinions

The brain is a mysterious place.

Do you know that scientists still don’t fully understand how dreams work? For all the technology and wisdom we have, it’s still not clear how the brain works.

For this reason, it’s important to note that medical cannabis affects everyone differently, because of our different brain chemistry. What works for me may not work for you, and vice versa. Personally, I am a daily user of medical cannabis, and it helps me with my writing. Sometimes it helps me too much with my writing, and I can’t get my work done without medical cannabis. It’s weird, because there have been many times when I work on a writing assignment while smoking a particular strain of medical cannabis. When I return to that assignment the following day, or the following week, I need to smoke the same medical cannabis strains to get me in the right mindset. Can the human mind tie certain memories to certain kinds of medical cannabis, or am I crazy? Maybe both things are true. Thankfully I live within walking distance of a cannabis dispensary, and they keep a full accounting of everything I buy on my account. This is great because even if I forget what strain I smoked last week the nice folks at the cannabis dispensary can look it up on the computer for me. I am so glad this cannabis dispensary is so close to my house, and really don’t know how I would get all my writing done without it. The brain is a mystery, but medical cannabis is an easy solution.

I got out a box of double fudge brownies and mixed in some peanut butter chips

One of my coworkers told me that he made cannabutter at home. The guy has a special machine that makes cannabutter. I was curious about the product and I asked if he could bring me a half of a cup so I could make pot brownies. I offered to trade pop brownies for the can of butter. I didn’t want to pay the guy because that is technically illegal. If we are trading products that is a sketchy, gray line. Of course, using marijuana at all in this country is a sketchy gray line because federally it is not legal. Even if the state laws tell you that you can use recreational or medical marijuana, that doesn’t mean that it is legal federally. If the FBI wanted to bust a local marijuana dispensary, they could cause a lot of problems. Thank goodness none of that has happened anywhere around here, but I still continue to be safe. My coworker brought the can of butter to the office and I took it home at the end of the day. As soon as I was back at the house, I took out the cannabutter so I couldn’t inspect it and smell it. It was very strong and light green in color. I got out a box of double fudge brownies and mixed in some peanut butter chips. I also added almonds and pecans. When I was done with the batter, I poured it into a large pan and added some cookie crumbles to the top. The pot brownies were absolutely delicious and so was the cannabutter.

medical marijuana dispensary

Most of the marijuana shops around here offer a 10% discount.

If you go on Weedmaps or one of the other online places, you can find some type of discount online.

Some of the places even have a 20% discount. When I found out that there was going to be a sale on marijuana at a dispensary that is not local, I called to make sure that my friends were correct. They told me that the marijuana dispensary was offering a 35% discount on everything in the store. That was a huge discount. I didn’t think that it was going to be true. I called the marijuana dispensary and they confirmed what my friends told me earlier that day. Everything was discounted 35% and they were going to have the sale that day and the next day. I told my friends that we should go to the dispensary the next day early in the morning. I had to work at noon, but I thought we could drive there and back as long as we got up early. I have a car that gets really good gas mileage so I decided to drive. Three of my friends and I packed into the car and drove out to the desert to the marijuana dispensary. The sale was really good and we ended up getting a lot of products that were buy one and get one for half price. We got the 35% deal as well and that turned out to be pretty big savings. I’m really glad that my friends told me about the sale.

I’ve been working a lot of overtime because my car broke down. The dealership told me that I have to have some work done on the transmission and it was going to cost about $1,500. I couldn’t drive the car until the work was done. I got a loan from my parents so I could get the car back quickly. I needed to use it for work. There was no way that I could take an uber or lift every single day and I didn’t have anyone to drive me back and forth to the marijuana dispensary nearby where I work. My mom and dad put the repairs for the car on their credit card and I have been working a lot of overtime to pay them back. It’s easy to work overtime at the marijuana dispensary, because people always want a day off. The boss doesn’t care if you work overtime as long as there is someone to cover all of the shifts. The marijuana dispensary pays weekly and I really like that. It’s nice to have a paycheck every friday. Once the weekend is over, I only have to worry about a couple of days before I have more money in my pocket. I had 62 hours last weekend and I expected my paycheck to be more than $1,000. Unfortunately, my paycheck was really off. As soon as I got the deposit, I called the manager and told her that there was a problem with my paycheck. She logged into the online system and I was only paid for 26 hours instead of 62.

I am the type of person that does not like to leave my house.

Some people would say that I am antisocial, but I just don’t like to be around a lot of people.

I was very happy when the covid-19 crisis happened because I got to stay inside of my house and no one gave me a hard time. My family didn’t ask me to go out to dinner or to the movies and my friends did not expect me to hang out with them once a week. When everything was over, I still preferred to stay by myself. A lot of things are delivered now that did not in the past and that includes laundry services, the grocery store, restaurants, bars, and even the marijuana dispensary near me. The marijuana dispensary near me did not have delivery services until everyone was forced to stay inside of their homes. Now I prefer ordering online and having everything delivered right to my apartment. I’m only a couple of miles away from the marijuana dispensary near me, so it doesn’t take very long to get the order. There are some drivers that leave the store in the morning and they are gone all day, but the marijuana dispensary also has some drivers that are there for local and in town orders. If I order online, it takes about 30 minutes before I receive all of my marijuana supplies. Sometimes the delivery service is faster than pizza or the local Mexican restaurant. The marijuana driver is always faster than the grocery store. They have a four hour delivery minimum.

 

 

Marijuana oils

I used to be a big fan of rolling my own joint. I loved the whole process. I would sit down with a podcast planning and go to town on my joint. I would get out the papers, grinder, ashtray and make it a whole process. It was relaxing and soothing to me to do my own pre-roll joint. It was like a little reward once I finished it. I quickly realized that while I like rolling my own joint, I am terrible at it. I typically would stuff the paper with too much loose leaf flower and lose half of it in the process. I couldn’t get a tight roll and would end up with a real mess. It was expensive when I rolled my own stuff. I would buy tons of different strains and not save any money. I then would lose 50% of my product to the floor and my shoddy rolling. After a while I realized that I needed something to do with my hands and just buy pre-rolls. Now when I listen to podcasts I work on knitting. I am pretty decent at it and I have already made one scarf. It is fun and I can easily stick a joint in my mouth while I do it. The pre-roll game is just way better. I can buy a pack of them for hardly any money. No, I don’t get the variety of flavors that I used to. That is a good thing though. I save quite a bit of money buying a pack of one flavor rather than multiple different ones. I also get 100% of the product that I pay for. I additionally don’t spend a portion of my time doing clean up after smoking.

I saute my veggies in the cannabis cooking oil and the cannabutter is used to make the alfredo sauce.

When it comes to cannabis and consumption methods, I would much rather eat my weed over smoking it. An edible is my go to product. Why? It is just so easy. Any other form of cannabis requires so much work with it. I also don’t feel they are as versatile. The world of edibles is vast. You don’t have to stick with the typical pot brownie anymore. There are tons of baked goods like cakes, cookies, pies and chocolate bars. You can get hard candy, gummies, mints and gums. Looking for something less sweet? You can choose a tablet, oil or mouth spray if that is more your style. There are even cannabis beverages. There are milk based, chocolaty drinks and soda pops. I typically choose a cannabis beverage that is pop-like. I love the wide variety of flavors like orange, grape, lime and cherry. I also am not opposed to picking up a cannabis cooking product. There are cannabutters that you can use to make your own sweets and cannabis cooking oils. I typically make white pasta with these. I saute my veggies in the cannabis cooking oil and the cannabutter is used to make the alfredo sauce. It is a tasty meal that leaves me feeling peaceful, calm and slightly sleepy. It is easy to use and gives off great effects. Why would I ever want to smoke something? Then I need to deal with all the accessories and clean up with it as well. It is so much easier to just chew and swallow.

Cannabis dispensary

I feel so fortunate to live in a recreational weed state.

I feel terrible for people who can’t just walk into a cannabis dispensary near them and pick out their products. Cannabis is no longer a party drug in my opinion. There are too many things medically it can treat. Cannabis should be treated like cough syrup or tylenol in my opinion. I take cannabis for medical reasons but I am lucky that I don’t actually need to get a medical weed card. I could get a harder dose and be allowed more if I went through the process, but it seems not worth it. The cost and the time I begrudge mostly. I take cannabis for stress and anxiety. I have a really intense job that has me on edge quite a bit. When I smoke a little weed, I feel a lot better. I make sure to get a high CBD and low THC strain for it. I don’t want to be all weird during the work day. I choose to vape cannabis oil over smoke a flower too. That means I can wear the vape around my neck and take a puff when I need it. I work from home so nobody is there to judge me for the smoke. What is great though is that the vapor doesn’t have an odor. I don’t have smelly hair or clothing. So when the work day is over and I go into town, nobody knows I was smoking weed all day. It provides the right kind of relief I need and I can get it anytime I am in town.

 

Marijuana delivery

Now that I have a baby, I can’t really go anywhere.

I mean I could load up my son in the car and then take him to the grocery store, post office or on other errands in his car seat.

The car seat will take up half the grocery cart. I can’t really carry a package and my son at the same time. It just makes sense to stay home at this point. Eventually my son will be able to walk or he will be easier to babysit and I will leave him with my mother. Right now I get everything delivered that I can. I have my groceries sent to me on a weekly basis. I do online banking and my prescription comes in the mail. It was a game changer when the cannabis dispensary near me offered delivery services. I just went without my cannabis after my son was born. I figured it would never happen for me. Nobody is willing to babysit my son for that kind of errand. I like a little weed in order to sleep at night. I vape an oil through a vape pen for immediate relief. There is a nice blend of THC and CBD in the oil that I choose as well. Now I can just go online and pick out my strain online. I am able to shop around and choose something like Blue Dream, Purple Haze or Girl Scout Cookies. Within a few hours the oil cartridges will be set right on my doorstep. I just paid a five dollar fee not to make the trip. It is more than worth it in my opinion.

 

 

Cannabis grower

I love the cannabis industry nowadays.

It was hard being a pot smoker in the 1990s and 2000s because it was illegal in most states.

You could still get a felony charge for simple possession in many areas. It was really scary when I was in college because I was worried about losing my place in school and all of my scholarships at the risk of smoking weed and getting busted by the police. Thankfully the campus police and my college were really open-minded about cannabis use and pretty much left students alone. It’s nice that I never had to worry about getting in trouble for cannabis while I was at school. But all of us wished we lived in a state where cannabis was legal for medical use. Because back then there was no recreational Cannabis legal in the United states. There were only States that had medical marijuana. Now they have legal cannabis and finally. There’s a local software developer who creates the payroll software for most of the cannabis dispensaries in the state. While they all have different ordering software and websites designed from different companies, they all pretty much use the same payroll software developed by the same local software developer. I think it’s interesting that all the same cannabis dispensaries utilize almost the exact same kind of payroll software for their employees. I don’t even know what kind of payroll software that my employer uses. I get my paychecks digitally sent to my bank account through direct deposit. I don’t even see a physical check so I don’t know where it comes from in the digital realm.
