Ahh, it's been a good second half of this week. Got my girl back Wednesday, then Friday night I played poker with friends... $5 buy-ins, we had a lot of people and some people bought in twice (I had to), so the pot was $75 which is the highest it's been in anyone's memory. I ended up getting second place, so I got $15... spent 10, so I came out ahead at least and it was massive amounts of fun. I managed to get second place even though I was on bk-2C-B, alcohol, weed, and a bit of MXE.

At the end I had $5 in chips and the person who won had $70 in chips... I pretty much had no chance of winning but I really didn't expect to get second place either. I stayed up til 5am talking about cool shit with my friend who's always the other person to stay up the latest besides me. Great night.
Then yesterday I went to my friend's house and hauled and split wood again for a few hours... best exercise ever. My core feels more solid after every time I do it. It was an amazing day yesterday too, quite warm and sunny. It's super satisfying to split wood, especially with a heavy axe-maul... I kept selecting the biggest, thickest pieces because it's more fun to break something substantial.
Also my girl told me she really wants to try mescaline, which is awesome. I haven't ever actually done any drugs with her except alcohol, because she doesn't do them very often at all. She smokes weed sometimes but very rarely, so I haven't even done that with her. Which is probably a good thing, since I have a tendency to do them too often... it's a good counterbalance to that. But it's really exciting that she wants to trip, I'll make that happen. She said she went to a party while she was in California where there were a bunch of psychedelics out on the table for people to try. She didn't feel like mushrooms or acid but she did want the san pedro tea... but it all got consumed before she had a chance and she was bummed about it. That's how it came up in conversation, she was telling stories about her trip. I'm pretty happy she wants to trip though, I bet that will be really fun.

I think I'll go ahead and get it and we can wait for a beautiful day to do it, and even if it's not til Spring, it will all be in place for then.
I'm pretty sure this is going to become something more, I can feel it sliding in that direction because we keep feeling closer to each other. Kinda freaky but it also makes me smile. She's a really sweet and giving person and she's also very interesting. And super independent which after my last relationship is extremely important to me. Well I'm gonna take it slow but not hold back either.
