Don't Let Old Ladies Dominate You

A mention about Rememberance Day and thanking our service people for their sacrifice: Thank you!

On Saturday, I decided to make a visit to the Co-Op Cannaibs store on Macleod Trail in Calgary, Alberta. There was a line up of 50 people ahead of me, and to be hoenst, it reminded me alot of a bank. You walk in, check the order board (its sorted as such: Green= Hybrid, Purple=Indica, and Red=Sativa strains).

On the screens are the THC % and CBD% for each strain. I got excited when I saw "APL Blend" was listed at 30% THC and 30% CBD. But when I came up to the front of the line, the old lady at the cash register dashed my hopes: THC was 13% and CBD was near 7%. Fuuuck that.

But interestingly, she was giving me strong eye contact. I never wavered and had this happen before. I met her eyes and did not break contact. A confident smile and crows feet from my eyes loosend her up a bit.

You could tell she really didn't give a crap about her job here. I'm sure if it was up to this old coot Pot would be made illegal again. I confidently and politely asked for the APL Blend and that's when she told me it wasn't 30/30. I decided to ask for the "Free" strain which had high CBD - they were out. I moved to another strain - they were out.

I was getting annoyed. I decided to roll dice and just get the cheap "Plain Packaging Indica" blend (3.5g for $29.99). They had it! "Anything else?" she asked sharply. I returned gaze and never broke. She darted her eyes away.

Yeah, that's right. Don't ever let people dominate you. But please, don't ever dominate people with eye contact like this. Sometimes it can make you appear like a lunatic. And maybe I am.

Saving this batch for December 1st since I'm off the stuff this November. I'm enjoying it.

And never smoke and drive. Ever.
