Sleeping on Blackberry Kush

Blackberry Kush seems to be good for sleep. Trying it again tonight. Slept long and hard last night, which I really needed. We'll see how it does tonight. So far, I'm still awake and typing, which isn't a good sign. But I know I'm very good at fighting drugs, particularly when it comes to sleep. Guess I should go to bed.

I found out why people recommend edibles for medicinal use. More on that later....

Letter to the Editor on behalf of Illinois MMJ Patients

This letter to the editor appeared in the Chicago Tribune. This letter could have been written about people in any state that has not yet approved the use of medical marijuana. In my opinion, it is very well written and accurately represents my sentiments and those of many others like me. On behalf of all of us, thanks Dan!

Legalize cannabis for patient use

On Election Day last year, Michigan voters made their state the 13th to allow seriously ill patients to use medical cannabis upon the recommendation of a physician. Now, 71 million people -- about 24 percent of Americans -- live in one of the 13 states that allow the doctor-advised, medical use of cannabis.

Suffering patients in Illinois, however, still face arrest for relieving their symptoms with an effective treatment option.

Such a measure enjoys massive support in Illinois. A 2008 poll conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling and Research shows Illinois residents favor allowing seriously and terminally ill patients to use marijuana for medical purposes by a 68 percent to 27 percent margin.

There are already patients in Illinois using cannabis to treat a serious disease or debilitating condition, and they should not have to turn to the criminal market for relief. Most people do not want send a cancer patient to jail for using a treatment his or her doctor has recommended. A 1990 survey of cancer specialists that appeared in the Journal of Clinical Oncology found that 54 percent of those surveyed favored the controlled medical availability of marijuana, and 44 percent had already suggested at least once that a patient use marijuana.

Illinois legislators have a responsibility to ensure seriously ill patients are exempt from state-level prosecution for using a medicine recommended by a physician. Cannabis can improve the quality of life for many patients, and it doesn't have the side effects of some addictive pharmaceutical drugs.

Opponents of medical cannabis often claim laws permitting its use are a step towards legalizing cannabis for everyone or it would send the wrong message to children. None of the states that have passed medical cannabis laws have legalized cannabis for recreational use, and reports on youth cannabis usage rates, where data is available, have shown a decline in teen use after the passage of those laws.

Illinois should not delay in protecting these patients -- for some it is truly a matter of life or death. Moreover, cannabis is a safe, natural medicine and doctors in Illinois should be able to recommend that patients use it if the situation dictates.

AK-47 gave me the giggles

Reminder to self... do not vaporize AK-47 and try to go to sleep! It will make you giggle. It makes others overly chatty. Save this one for parties or for chasing the blues.

Cannabis fact #1

Did you know...?

Queen Victoria of Britain used a cannabis tea to help with PMS and menstrual cramps.

I wonder what strain it was...

The goat and the gun

Trying a couple new strains these days: Golden Goat and AK-47. Just medicated with AK-47 for sleep.

Golden Goat doesn't make me sleepy right away. In fact, it's a great evening med. It mellows me out, but not to the point of being stupid. I can still think, converse, do things, make sense of my environment. I'm just more relaxed. But about two hours later it hits me... bam! I'm sleepy and ready to head to bed. If I time it right, I won't spend much time lying awake.

AK-47 is supposed to be for sleep, but not to just wipe you out. Tonight is the first time I've tried it, so I don't have any experience with it yet. I'll let you, my loyal readers, know what happens.

So far I've tried:

• Great White Shark - for sleep. Made my heart race and pound. Didn't much like it.
• Honeydew - for daytime. It's okay. Not fab, but it works. Nothing extra.
• Northern Lights IV - for daytime. Dampens the pain without turning my brain to mush.
• Purple Snow - for sleep. Agrees with me much better than GWS. Nice relaxed sleep without a drug hangover like with sleeping pills (especially Ambien for me).
• Golden Goat - nice delayed sleepiness.
  
• AK-47 - ??? (I don't like the name, by the way.)
  

I have a couple other strains on hand to try. A new friend may be bringing me a clone of Northern Lights so I can grow it myself. It's pretty popular, especially with women. And I've been told that Kali Mist is good for women too, so he may bring me a clone of that too. As a medical user, it's tough when you find a strain that really works for you but you can't always find it. Best just to start growing it yourself or find a grower to do it for you.

I'm getting sleepy, but not overwhelmed. Time to put me and my AK47 to bed.

Written while stoned?

Was this written while stoned? Your guess is as good as mine.
