We ate an edible and fell asleep, then woke up high to discover our first snow this winter

What an odd feeling โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ๐ŸŒจ

This past Thursday night was full of surprises...

untitled.gif

@flowerbaby ended up coming over after she got out of work. Typically, we just spend Friday, Saturday, and Sunday together. This past weekend was different since we were expecting our first snowstorm of this winter season here in our part of West Virginia. We both were trying to prepare and knew that her staying here with me would be the smartest idea. Rather than going back to her house where it always snows more and the roads are treated less often. Her car is a FWD Honda Civic and mine is an AWD Audi A4. Any car enthusiast should know right away that my Audi with its Quattro drivetrain is much more suited to go out in the snow than hers. This turned out to be a very wise decision.

Before I talk about how much it snowed, let me first explain how we initially realized that the snow was actually falling and starting to pile up on the ground outside. When she first got here, it was already snowing a good bit. We knew that most restaurants would be closing down early that evening due to the weather. So I did the smartest thing we could and ordered us some dinner from the closest restaurant. I then bundled up and walked a short distance to go pick it up before they closed. Once I was back with the food, we both had our fill of it.

Following dinner, we both decided to eat a 25 mg Delta-8 THC gummy. Each of us considers 25 mg to be a large dose and usually just ingest 12.5 mg or less, but we had nothing better to do that night. We then threw on some terrible movie on Hulu that isn't even worth mentioning by name, which put us to sleep in 20 minutes or so. It usually takes about 40 minutes for the edibles to kick in, so we went to sleep without a buzz. The next thing we knew, we woke up and that movie was over. It was a totally different world upon our awakening.

untitled.gif

Both of us got up out of bed and were extremely high and dying of thirst. It is such a weird feeling to wake up high. Surely you have heard of the term wake and bake. Well this whole waking up just as our edible effects were reaching their peak puts that idea of waking and baking to shame. We were totally blitzed and it was hilarious. The two of us could not stop laughing and literally, every little thing turned into a comedy.

untitled.gif

I think that the funniest thing about all of this is the fact that my arms were both still asleep even though I was awake. I guess I fell asleep on them weird or something, but the lack of blood flow had my arms feeling like dead limbs. That combined with the strong head high that I had was one of the most memorable feelings I have ever endured.

untitled.gif

Along with all of these peculiar feelings, we noticed that the snow was still coming down. At this point, it was snowing even harder than before and the forecast was showing no signs of it letting up. It was a really smart idea that she ended up staying with me. Otherwise, she would surely have been stranded at her house all weekend. We ended up watching two really great movies to finish off the cozy night at home. Be on the lookout for my #cintev posts about Next (Nic Cage) and Dark Shadows (Johnny Depp) coming later this week.

Most people had to call into work the following morning I'm sure, but not my girl. We got up at our normal time and she got ready. Then we went and got in my trusty Audi to venture forth towards her place of employment. Luckily I have garage parking, so my car didn't have any snow on it or a frosted windshield. We were able to leave immediately. The streets were nowhere near as busy as they usually are. They also had not yet been cleared by the plows, at least not very well.

untitled.gif

I was able to drive her to work with zero problems. Quattro has yet to ever let me down. My Audi has been such an amazing car for the 8+ years that I have been driving it. I'm so thankful to have this tank as my daily driver. This snow always satisfied me to drive in tremendously since I have recently become obsessed with the video game DIRT 5 (stay tuned for lots of posts about that coming soon).

untitled.gif

If you are wondering how much snow we actually got, I measured 6 inches on the top floor of my parking garage. It always seems to snow a bit less downtown where I live. My parents and @flowerbaby's parents surely got even more snow than us. I know that I saw some people in my area posting photos of as much as 12 inches. This may or may not be a lot in your eyes, I guess it depends where in the world you live. To us, this was a pretty big amount of snow, but still nowhere near close to the most we have ever witnessed.

untitled.gif

The tranquil feeling that snowfall offers is unlike any other. I love the beach and the ocean puts me in a trance. However, nothing compares to the silence and pure cleanliness of the beautiful white powder that snow is. I am grateful that where I live offers me the opportunity to experience all four seasons. I'm happy to have our first snow, but I'm sure by the time snow two and three roll around, I'll be ready for summer.

Thanks for reading today.

Are you a fan of the snow? Or are you one of those people who still has never seen snow in real life?

Waking up and your arms still asleep is crazy ๐Ÿ˜ I have ones experience that before, I believe that happened due to the fact that the blood in the arm wasn't flowing freely. I am a snow lover but haven't seen it in real life๐Ÿ˜”. Maybe you have to invite me over๐Ÿ˜

It is a wild feeling, mix that with a strong buzz and I basically didn't fell human anymore.

Hopefully, you can one-day witness snow. There is nothing else in the world like it.

LOL! Yeah been there before on waking up the next day high off an edible. But not the good kind of high. Man I hate the snow, but I do miss those days of waking up to a big snow pile, and haveing an excuse to be lazy, or go out and play with no repsonbilites.

I regards to your Audi, which sounds like a treat to drive in the snow. I once had a Mercury Topaz, and went far off back in the country roads to score some weed before the storm set it, mind you this was Kentucky, a place that is not well prepared for big snow blizzards. Well when we got to our destination, my radiator went to shit, and car over heaated. I had to drive 5-10 miles and then stop. By this time the snow blizzard hit, and I was doing this all in the blizzard! Luckily I did make it home, but what should of been 1 hour, took 4 hours. Worst part was we didnt even score the weed.

I learned my lesson by eating an uncomfortable amount of edibles. It can become so damn strong and just not fun at all.

I'm headed to Newport, KY this weekend actually. Yes, I trust my car in the snow, but I also know that it is far from invincible and snow/ice can be very tricky. That story of you trying to score before the blizzard and it turning into a several-hour nightmare sound terrible. I bet you will never forget going through that and surviving while being forced to stay sober. That is a great share, thanks for including that bit.

Then surely you are familiar with where I will be. I'm headed to Thompson House for another rave finally. That place is one of the coolest venues that I've ever been to.

Itโ€™s been since 2004 since Iโ€™ve been there, and wasnโ€™t to active in the night life. Minus a few clubs in Cincinnati, and the waterfront. Sounds fun, try to take a few pics of the sites there . Would be cool to reminisce.

Thompson house is like a block from the waterfront. Can't wait to be back there. Just hoping it doesn't snow while we are there.

Waking up high is the weirdest feeling ever. It takes a little time to remember that you got high before you went to bed and it is just confusing for the first couple minutes.

I think that was part of it. Took me a minute to remember that we ate edibles and that it was night and not morning. We slept for maybe an hour, so it was the perfect amount of time for the gummies to hit hard.

It really was and Iโ€™d do it again in a heartbeat. Perhaps minus the arms feeling dead next time.

Surely you have heard of the term wake and bake.

Wake and bake? What's that? And stop calling me Shirley.
