Weeds

I am up a little later than normal this evening working on some clothing orders for work and decided that I "needed" an iced tea and a snack.  Since I am out of tea at the house, which never happens but seems it has, and have not been to the grocery store in weeks, I decided to go the convenience store down the street.  I went in and got the necessities, and then headed outside.  Another car was pulling up when I got to my car.  I looked over as I fastened my seat belt to notice that the two guys in the car were smoking.  This is nothing out of the ordinary for Oklahoma, especially my area, as it seems that everyone here smokes.  However, I did think it was weird that two men were sharing a cigarette in a car with all the windows rolled up.  You guessed it, not a cigarette!  They were sharing joint.  A joint!  Maybe I am a little naive, but I was shocked. Who drives around and smokes a joint?  Seems like that could be a little dangerous, not to mention stupid!  To tell you the truth, it also made me think of this comedy cd that I have listened to several times over the past couple of years.  In Daniel Tosh's routine, he does a bit about drugs, marijuana in particular.  As roughly as I can remember, he says "Legalize it!  That's right folks, I am an advocate for the legalization of marijuana.  Then all the lazy stoners in the world would not have anything else to complain about.  Most people don't see me taking this approach, but it's time to grow up and do coke like an adult!"  That last line always makes me laugh. Maybe it's because we all know someone who used to smoke a lot of pot, and maybe still does?  So what did I do?  Nothing.  Except drive in the opposite direction!
