My family is a stoner family!! Everyone smokes weed, so I've never had to hide being stoned or on drugs. It's great in many ways, but I get a real kick out of trying to act straight. It's a game for me, and I'm pretty good at it now. But this one time... I went to school after a really big weekend and decided to keep things going by smoking throughout day. I used to go to school stoned a lot and no one seemed to notice. It was like the minute the clear eyes went in, I could be normal.
I was in my maths class and the teacher was coming around to check all of our work. I was sucking furiously on a chuppa chup (for fucks sake...!) and gulping from my water bottle. The whole class was wondering, 'what was up with Ez?'
I made the mistake of talking to the teacher, because I was in a great mood and everything was so darn great! I'm usually really quiet in class, and the teacher was like,
"What's going on with you today?"
I then proceded to explain really animatedly with huge arm gestures,
"I feel like I've been thrown out of a plane, head first, with no parachute, and I'm just falling out of that plane, no wings, I feel so...! I'm just so....!"
The teacher gave me a really weird look and walked away. I dug that hole really deep.
I think everyones advice on riding with it is the way to go. But I also think you have to sometimes mix it up. Jump out of every stereotype you're being placed in, if you know what I mean. Then no one can catch you.
