1.5g p.cubensis: tea, double-steeped and infused with earl grey
------------------
pre:
i hand-grind 1.5g of very attractive home grown p. cubensis and place in a tea ball. i steep once for 10mins and once more for another 10mins then combine the two liquids and top off with a filter bag of earl grey tea.
note: i havent eaten in +12 hours before drinking this tea...
[music: krill.minima - nautica]
[T+0:00] - first sips making their way down. earl grey masks the taste quite well as there is no hint of mushroom taste at all.
[T+0:10] - about a half cup left. i'm noticing small physical effects as my muscles, particularly in my arm, are trembling. like the body rush of painkillers. half of which feels like a massage the other half like a symptom of a panic attack.
[T+0:18] - anxious feeling that something is about to happen. 1/3 cup left.
[T+0:24] - a bit gassy. slightly foamy burps. still very heavy body stone feel. pretty relaxed.
[T+0:31] - tea is drunk. tasted the mushroom taste in the sludge at the bottom. nothing at all bad.
[T+0:38] - slightly stoned. for shits i'm going to try playing a video game on the computer while i wait for it to come on.
[T+1:00] - that was fun and i didnt do terribly bad. i definitely feel a much more pronounced buzz now. thats why i stopped playing. i think its coming on now.
[T+1:01] - slight visuals becoming apparent on the ceiling. feel the need to urinate. feel warm.
visuals are interesting to look at and are not overwhelming. i am shaking a little bit. butterflies in the stomach.
[music:krill.minima - urlaub]
[T+1:05] - pulled back the vertical blinds and revealed a huuuuge grasshopper. muich larger than any ive ever seen! scared the SHIT outta me. wow. okay. i think im okay. ha.
i really enjoy this method of ingestion as i feel more able to influence how rapidly it comes on. i sipped my tea for over a half hour or forty minutes and it's been a remarkably easy come up.
[T+1:11] - i decide i should pee in case it gets any more intense
[T+1:13] - back from bathroom. pupils are definitely dilated. and that grasshopper is trippin me out.
[T+1:15] - feeling less of the physical effects/trembling now. feel very relaxed and calm.
[T+1:20] - interesting thought patterns happening.
the music. this track. i keep thinking i hear myself breathing but in it's in the music in the background im sure.
[T+1:24] - another rush of warm.
[T+1:17] - reading back through previous entries and the words moved apart. i'm not often infront of a computer while tripping so this was neat to see.
[T+1:28] - i must had got the time wrong on that last entry because it was just a second ago i typed that.
visuals are definitely present.
all physical effects have passed.
[T+1:30] - tripping out a bit because i cannot figure out how to spell the word 'subtle' which i come to realize 5 minutes later
[T+1:34] - really enjoying the strange way words inflate and pull apart while reading. even website forums do this. it really is pretty interesting.
[T+1:36] - time for rambling weirdness. thoughts are fun right now.
everything expands and contracts infinitely. there is an underlying rhythm and pattern for these fluctuations. its definitely pronounced. i can notice it.
im not sure what gives these visuals the appearance of motion because they are definitely stationary. they are moving to no place. or rather the same place. its all very interesting.
[T+1:40] - i love reading right now (if you could call it that) and watching words and letters dance about. its remarkable.
[T+1:44] - it just started to drizzle outside while i was looking at the visuals on the patio and wondered why all of a sudden they became so different. the wet patio mixed with what i was seeing and was quite enjoyable.
[T+1:50] - called a friend and left a voicemail that i'm sure will leave him jealous for my state of mind.
[T+1:53] - there is a small spot on the patio where the little drizzle from the sky fell and this small area of wetness appears to resemble reptile skin. like from a dinosaur maybe
at this point i'm full blown in the psychedelic state. i stood up and looked out the window. vivid color even on an overcast day, or especially on such a day. patterns in everything. this world is so fantastic.
[T+1:56] - i could stare at a tree for a million years.
[music: evan bartholomew - borderlands]
[T+1:56] - spent a good bit outside. the drizzle had started again. the little drops felt like pins and needles but in an enjoyable way. 1.5g is a very enjoyable dose.
[T+2:13] - thunder clouds passing overhead. interesting melting/bubbling going on in them while i stare in amazment
i think the grasshopper just woke up. i watch him flex his legs and shake his abdomen as if that were the case.
[T+2:40] - been laying in bed listening to music and watching the swirls on the ceiling...
two very large hits from a bowl of marijuana have definitely altered ths experience a little. i have a marijuana-like headspace now. its nothing too intense but definitely present.
[T+2:33] - wow i must have read the time wrong on the clock again. thats happened twice now. i'm enjoying my headspace very much now.
[T+2:37] - moved to tears by evan bartholomew's 'and healing'
i notice parts of this song that i feel for certain have to be audible only to those in a psychedelic state. like he tapped into a frequency only people in this state could hear at. i have heard this song a million times before and it is my favorite but there were as many as 4 tracks mixed in that i had never heard before. very amazing.
[T+2:40] - sun is peaking through the clouds. sounds like a good time to return to looking at the sky.
[T+2:41] - everything seems to have a tendancy to revolve counter-clockwise. it makes me wonder why we chose left to right as the direction in which we read and tell time.
[T+2:43] - i really love watching clouds in this state of mind. one of my favorite things.
[T+2:45] - the clouds are currently appearing to me as an aerial view of a small grass covered mountain will surrounding hills.
[T+2:47] - i think this must be the peak.
[T+2:49] - advice for locations to trip will always be: wherever you can still see the sky.
[T+2:57] - [music: h.u.v.a. newtowrk - distances]
[T+3:06] - reading text the letters now look beveled at times. very cartoony in this respect.
[T+2:58] - think i'll try playing a video game now just to see what happens.
[T+3:45] - wow i was playing that long? crazy. most definietly have come down a bit now.
playing that game was an incredible joy when i started. i must do that again. i was smiling the whole time. lotta fun.
[T+3:47] - visuals are definitely still present. think i may have a few hits of grass.
[music: brian eno - music for airports]
[T+4:16] - feels like im all the way down now. residual visuals still linger as well as vivid color. hungry. i think im going to fix myself something to eat.
[T+4:28] - reading back at the previous entries i think what i said at [+1:53] sums up this entire experience: this world is so fantastic
