You guys, I can't believe I wrote 60,000 consecutive words of prose.

I mean, that's long for me. I am a girl who writes short. This is a happy accomplishment indeed.

Just queried someone!

Okie dokie.

That was the best pilot episode I have ever seen.

This was me at school today.

Friend: Marijuana should be legalized.
Me: Why?
Friend: Well, it's natural.
Me: So are bears.

I actually really don't care about whether weed is legal or not- I mean, I personally hope it's not for my sake, because I have severe asthma attacks to inhaling secondhand smoke of any kind, and could die if I inhale too much, so less smoking is always good for me! BUT that's a totally selfish reason, and my only opinion on the matter.

I just like playing devil's advocate.

I'm allergic to tobacco. If I'm around it for a short time, I get the average allergy symptoms, like stuffy nose, runny and itchy eyes, sneezing, blah blah blah. If I'm around it for a long time, my eyes will swell up to the size of at least golf balls. That is never a fun situation.

But, I'm not allergic to marijuana. So that doesn't tie in with your conversation. Maybe with the all types of smoking part, but.. y'know.

I have asthma considered recovered, but it can be provoked...

I mean, one time I walked into my grandmother's apartment. She had been smoking earlier that day, and had been airing the place out.

I was coughing so hard I could barely get to the toilet. There was blood in my vomit.

And that was a mild situation.

It's a reaction to the smoke, and weed's smoke is a lot thicker, so my reaction is a lot worse.

Yikes.

My aunt smokes. I can't be around her for very long. Of course, I haven't seen her since a few months ago, and she lives in the same community as me. Both of our families aren't getting along right now...

Apparently I'm in the minority but I love the smell of smoke. If it's possible to be addicted to something without ever trying it, I would be addicted to smoking. It's kind of ridiculous how bad I want to when I've never actually done it (my whole family used to tho).

Morning folks, how's everyone doing? Can't believe I've been up for 3 hours, given it's a Saturday.
