how to avoid getting caught by parents

Ok, so I've always been pretty good at covering my smell (both with weed and cigarettes). I carry a small bottle of conditioner in my purse and put it in my hair and putting lotion on my hands. I have several pairs of identical sweatshirts, so I bring one and leave another on my porch or in the bushes or something. So I don't smell when I come back. But my eyes tend to get very red and my pupils dialate rediculously. I've always been able to go home when I'm coming down, but tonight I came home and my step-mom immediately got suspicious. She's like "If I thought you were a dope smoker, I would say you'd been out smoking dope all afternoon". And I was calm and collected and said my contacts were really bothering me, and she bought it, as far as i can tell. My parents know my boyfriend and most of my friends smoke, and have no problem with that, but they don't want me doing it. (It's caused some problems in my family). Most of my friends parents know, including my boyfriends parents, and don't care. But I don't know how mine would react. I'm responsible about it, they have nothing to worry about.


Do you know of any ways I can reduce/prevent this or excuses i can use?


Sorry for the crappy grammar/possible repetition, I'm still a bit messed up =)

 

well obviously red eyes would help the redness. as for the dialated pupils, thats a pretty shitty way to get caught cause mine are always dialated so you really cant catch someone based off that.

 

I think your best bet might actually be to just come straight with your parents. Ever since I admited to my parents about that shit would kind of had a different relation.. a better, healthier one.

Or if you really don't want to do that.. you can always buy yourself a bottle of visine (sp?) at a pharmacy or something.

 

damn you seemed pretty pre-paired to start off with, the only thing I can suggest is visine.

 

I dunno best thing you can do is just time stuff right, I suppose.
Like if you have the be home by midnight or somthing smoke up at 9 so you're done by the time you get home.
worked for me 'till my parents found out, then I found out they didn't care, so you never know. maybe you should talk to your family.

 

Well, my parents are the type of people that don't tell me they want me home til 10 mins before I'm meant to be home. I can usually time it right, or avoid them. And I just wasn't prepared today. And it got me thinking about how I should be better prepared in the future.

 

just make sure whenever you smoke that if its close to when you have to home you just get a little toasted instead so by the time you go home your straight. thats what i do and my parents are always suspicous and i havent ever been caught

 

if your allergic to dogs theres another excuse for ya. Another trick is if your friends parents smoke you can use them to cover your own habits. Other than that it sounds like your good.

Rubbing dryers sheets on your clothing also works to get rid of smell (or at least ive been told, but if it works for spoofs i imagine it would do just as well for clothes).

 

tell your parents about it, show them www.norml.com in case they still have old fashioned ideas about marijuana. that's what i did, and my parents are totally cool with it.
