I recall that when Shoe was much younger and did illegal drugs that made it trip, it had a list of rules that it would keep on hand so that when it was lacking in judgment while partaking of serious hallucinagens, it would know what it should and shouldn't do. Yesterday, Shoe accidentally inhaled alot of Salvia and found himself running around the block for no particular reason 5 minutes later. I'm thinking that Shoe should make a list. Here are my initial rules, please feel free to add based on your experiences and regrets: - Elevation is bad. Do not go anywhere near ledges or tree limbs more than 4 feet off the ground. - Open spaces are great, but not where your neighbors can see and wander why you are dancing in a circle or running for no particular reason. which leads to.... - Privacy is better than publicity. Not that publicity matters, but, its just better to stay away from people, because they suck. - Sharp objects are the devil. Leave them alone like they'll burn you... - Hot objects are bad. Hot = bad. Except cigarettes, and only after you can hop on one foot without falling down. - Beer is always and forever a good thing, liquor is not. Stay away from liquor and have a beer. - No partaking of any new sage until you are completely sober.
it will work. a sitter is a good idea I usually have water on hand to drink and a pad and paper for souvenirs.
uh....as far as i know it is very hard to move under the effects of salvia...let alone RUN. the other day i inhailed two nice rips of salvia out of a good sized bong, and i was immobile for at least 5 minutes, which i learned the hard way by my futile attempt to ride a bicycle. were you there for this occurance? as far as tripping alone, it is best to be in a comfortable area, not to warm or cold, with someplace to sit and/or meditate. also music is always good, depending on what you listen to, lights and posters can be good, especially psychedelic posters and multi-colored lights. STROBE LIGHTS CAN CAUSE SEIZURE.
- Hot objects are bad. Hot = bad. Except cigarettes, and only after you can hop on one foot without falling down. i cant do that when i am sober =) important rule: go away from the cars tehy will run over you
my rules: * don't even try to listen to techno, it will piss you off so bad. happy hardcore might be ok, as long as it's not too repetitive. * don't have anything potentially irritating sitting around. i don't know how to tell you what's going to irritate you... i was really annoyed by a winnie the pooh pillow case because it had too much white space and didn't look good. * unless you want to feel like you fell through a time warp, don't have too much stuff around that you've had since you were little or that reminds you of being little. time warps might piss you off if you weren't planning on going through one. * have interesting things to look at in case you're still partially in reality. because if you're someplace boring, it'll piss you off. * don't get pissed off. i made salvia sound horrible, but it's really fun and amazing. just, you tend to notice little things and if something's not right it'll feel like a big deal. example: loud techno music felt like satan was bombarding me with hate and pushing and compressing me, and i couldn't get away. make sure you're somewhere that you can explore without difficulty, somewhere comfortable, safe, and that doesn't have any bad sounds or smells. and keep in mind you might want to lay down, or you might want to get up and dance. give yourself options. and have a little bit of something salty, something sweet, something fruity, so on. and lots of water. maybe i'm too into preperation, but a good setting = a good trip (or a better chance at one). a bad setting = tripping over things and falling back to earth with bruises.
yea def dont listen to techno or Drum and Bass i was all tweaked on 25x and listening to some jungle and i felt like i was being beaten by the drums and basses and yes it fuckin pissed me off.
