Lao said she didn't feel like hanging around if we oldsters were just going to be reliving the past, so we banned nostalgia for the mind-poison that it is & decided on other entertainment.
TC & Jolene, like myself, are still narco-anarchists, & like myself, in the passing years they have moved to the strictly organic. During the punk heyday, I never much had the desire to do psychedelics in social settings, as the punk scene was more conducive to amphetamines & alcohol. Since then I have changed my ways & only do what I (or friends) can grow. That means I normally limit myself to weed & 'shrooms (which I brought along for this adventure in abundance). TC, on the other had, living in a more urban space, has turned his green thumbs to cacti & poppi (which he had in even more abundance).
Jolene had constructed an authentic Pawnee sweat lodge in their back yard & this is where we spent the majority of the next two days. First we performed a cleansing ceremony with much sweating & chanting, then we moved on to a Peyote ritual with a great deal of fun with the little green man (liberally infused with peace-pipe loads of green & O).
Here's some musick to listen to while you ponder these events.

After Pt.1, I was expecting to read about how you ducked outta that store-front and assaulted the city in a manner of wreck-less (sic) hedonism... I wan't expecting this magical turn of events!
ReplyDeleteWowie! and envy emanate from my typing - in equal portions.
It is so amazing and cool to run into long lost friends (I, personally, met up with someone 15 years past, this past weekend. A mind tripper, to be sure, but MPLS is a relatively small town. It should have happened eventually... But in 'frisco? In a doorway? Too wild.)
It reinforces my atheistic belief... "That was not random. That was an eventuality."
Sweat-lodging with peyote and weed? Ooh, you just made me flash the green-eyed envy look for a second... But I would fail in that situation. I would talk too much and try externalize my inner euphoria.
OK, I'm typing too erratic and much...
Glad you got yer ya-yas on, though, Nathan!
Arrrrrrriba!
