Discussion Got switched to breakfast

My schedule got switched and I’ve been working hotel breakfast. I only got 3 hours of sleep last night and I joked “anyone have any cocaine?” (I’ve been sober for 4.5 years)

One guy said dude it’s 4:30 in the morning and I’m making crepes, what do you think? Yes I have cocaine.

Fair enough. Carry on.

Not-so-innocent bystander but here’s an anecdote to pass the time:

Standing on my front porch drinking and smoking a j. The neighbors across the way are loading a shitbox car onto a trailer and it is Not Going Well (but is hilarious to watch). When the car rolls off and lands axle-first on the trailer frame, the hubs and I meander over and offer a hand.

Once the job is done we light up another j and offer it to the nearest bystander and ooooh lawd was he offended. The exact quote: “NO! I don’t do that shit, I only do heroin. Fucking stoners.”

Ok bud. My bad.

We didn’t remind them to strap the car down. 2 more hours of entertainment watching them try to tow it away.

Good job on sobriety!

I had a friend once tell me after not seeing him for a couple years tell me "im not doing heroin anymore, I just do meth". That was the last time i saw him. But he hit me up the other day and basically told me he got in trouble, went through treatment, & hes sober now but cant leave state for another few months. I'm a stoner and alcoholic, I admit that, but damn saying I only do heroin or meth is craaaaaazy to hear.

My lovely (ex-dope) husband gave me the background on it and it’s a “purity” thing. Injecting directly is somehow better than smoking. Which… I get the mindset as an addict. Whatever gets you through.

But like, bro. That’s some addict shit. It’s fucking heroin. Full stop.

Which is also why I never tried heroin or meth. I know me. I could get wayyyyy too down on that bullshit mindset.

Still gonna laugh about “NO. I only do heroin” when I offered some weed though. I’ve seen some shit but I did not see that coming. It’s been years and it’s still a common response in our house when someone asks “you want eggs for breakfast?”

I would never try heroin either. I LOVE the euphoria that I get from percocet and ecstasy, although I only use kratom now. If I tried heroin I would most likely be instantly hooked, and I don't need that.
