So I live 2 miles from the Illinois border, where cannabis is legal via the Democratic Governor Pritzker & a friendly Assembly. After consuming my 5 year horde from 2018 returning from Colorado & growing 2 plants, I crossed the border. I search periodically for a dispensary, one that is nearer than 50 miles round trip. How timely a dispensary opened last month a mere 20 miles round trip. So as an introvert, I girded up my loins for a trip to the city. I am saved. Not as an addict as one can addict themselves to anything their brain is subject to. But as a supporter of a plant my great grandmother grew in her medicinal garden. One that adults use to enhance life's joys.Then the government decided they could not tax it as it was so easy to grow so they outlawed it, gave it a "foreign" name, Marijuana, Mary Jane, a drug used by Mexicans, jazz musicians, & "the blakes". Included it as a Class A drug along with heroin, & began a "war" which shot ourselves in the foot, corrupting nations, running the governments in El Salvador, Haiti, with their peoples running for their lives at our borders. Chickens coming home to roost. Not the people. The policy. Run on sentence much? Having not been out since 2018, I became lost as the route I have taken a thousand times, was completely changed. Where trees, cornfields & houses existed, there are now Amazon/Uline warehouses. I used 1/2 a tank of gas riding around for 2 hours trying to figure out where I was. I suppose that is another argument for me finally getting a cell. Then the dispensary discovered that I have been driving around on an expired drivers license for 2 years. It is a good thing I am a Caucazoid. It is also a good thing that I realized it was Sunday before I drove over to the department of trans Then my meds began to wear off & frustration & anger began to over come me. "Take a deep breathe & count to 4", she said to know one there. Is this what is called a "bad day" ? Not if I make it home alive without getting pulled over by a zealous cop. The dispensary was very rewarding the next day after I renewed my license. I may have to move back to Illinois.
