: HI AGAIN;

: That is a bummer that you can't do it once in a while.

: I hope that someone out there has some better solutions for you than I do. What about joining a gym and becoming an excercise demon?? You do get a great high from lifting weights or distance running - AND- you have no trouble falling asleep!!

: I have had a few discussions with friends about legalizing all drugs or at the very least pot.

: 1) Do you think that is a good idea or a bad one?

: 2) If it were legal, would you be upset if hubby used it then?

: Good luck!! I hope that you find the answer.

: BOB

Personally I think it should be legalized. However it doesn't mean that I would have a free pass to abuse it. I want to quit, not because it is illegal, but because of what it is doing to me. I have developed a terrible short term memory. I am a complete idiot to anyone who isn't high (I see that now when I see my husband stoned and I am not). I plan to cut down. I hope to be able to do it on just a few occasions. Right now only once a week (from once a day), then when I am okay with that, maybe once a month - I think I may stay there. It is the fact that I am looking forward to smoking pot during the day that bothers me, as well as the numerous side-effects.
