Friday Again yippie
First before I forget, which happens to someone on long term use of weed.. the link above this is for bob marley t shirts.. pretty cool and apre po.
Ok what to talk about on a Friday.. Lets talk about memory loss, sure I do not keep secrets, it is very true, that if you smoke weed, you have problems with your short term memory.. Long Term, seems to be ok. As long as I can remember I have not been known for remembering things, names, things to do, where I put my keys, all that, you may say that is just a mans thing.. I beg to differ, my father, and a lot of guys I know do not have this problem (smokers are excluded from that).
I have found my keys in many different places, like my sock drawer, in the bathroom sink, cupbords, in my shoes. While high I have had such great memory lapses, like putting stuff in the mirowave that was supposed to go in the fridge. I once took a piece of cake and tried to stuff it into a drinking glass (yes I was high at the time). When I played drums in bands, my sticks would always end up in someone elses stuff. Don’t know how, but they would. Over the years I have found literally hundreds if not thousands of dollars in places that i had not known i had put it there for years. I moved out of an apartment one time, and found six 20 dollar bills in my ice bucket.. Dont know how, what or why I was thinking, but it was a nice surprise.
Names on the other hand get more and more embarassing, though I must admit I have never forgot the name of a female i have found attractive. But I don’t know how many employees I have hired that I introduced as the wrong person. Now I try my ass off to remember now, but still I have to make sure I writing something down before I forget.. and repeat it at least 6 times in my head.
I have lost my wallet in my house many times, i have lost shoes, you ask how can that happen, I dont know but I have.. I have forgot so many things, but the funny thing is eventually I will remember. Last week, I finally remembered why I had my keys in the fridge from like 10 years ago, I had done it to remember to pick up some milk. Yes strange, but that was my reason at the time. My wife does no better than to call me on my cell to ask me to pick something up, she will ask me to write it down before I leave. It took a while for her to figure that out.
Ok I am done, any suggestions or complaints feel free to drop me a line..
Peace and Smiles.

I do have that problem, I quit 2 years ago, I can’t remember alot of things. I was really good with numbers and now I have a hard time with that, my Dad has done it all of my life and he is so close minded. He dosen’t want anyone to know, but I see it. Pot does do that to you. They should make legal, drinking is worse. I smoke once in a while now, maybe 2 times a month when I see him.

I have had that problem all my life, if I meet a person and can’t immediately write down the name, even if I repeat it several times in conversation with the person, five minutes later it is gone.
And apart from neglibible second-hand smoke, as I have mentioned before, I have never smoked pot. Just naturally talented, I expect. Heh.

The worst, absoulutely worst thing to misplace is your bag of greenies. And if you´re the paranoid type like me you tend to hide it and then go completly nuts and totalling the place while searching a few hours later.
