I should mention that occassionaly is a bit of a stretch as most nights I do vaporize to relax and enjoy my evening. Kind of like a glass of wine! Just thought I’d be honest ( with myself and with you all!)
Katana- as Amy stated- you can eat it 😉

I started smoking pot when I was 14. And trust me when I say, pot was the least of my problems when I was a teen. I was never physically addicted to it…I was a troubled girl who lost a lot of family members in only 4 months and never had the help I needed to cope. So I turned to the one thing that made me giggle, eat, and feel connected to the earth (don’t laugh…that mentality really helped me put things into perspective) I was arrested when i was about 16 for posession and had to attend court ordered NA meetings regularly. Here I saw what a real addiction consisted of and this is when I knew I was NOT addicted to pot. I was on probation so I turned to drugs that would leave my system quicker than weed.. It wasn’t until I was a sophomore in HS that I started running with the wrong crowd (not my pot friends) and got heavy into crap like coke and pills. That continued until a year after graduation. Then I turned to LSD. I would drop everyday- it got to the point where i could go to work high on 2 or 3 (or 4 or 5) hits and noone would be the wiser. It was an addiction because it consumed my life. I couldn’t stand being sober. It was terrible. I have battled addiction with a few substances, weed not being even close to one of them. I’m 4 1/2 years sober (not including marijuana because I never considered that a threat to my health) and I feel great. I do occassionally partake in vaporizing marijuana (not a drinker-alcoholism is “in my blood”) as an anxiety reducer. Plus, vaporizing doesn’t make me lazy-it often has the opposite effect on me.
I’m sorry but when I look at my family’s/others’ problems/addictions, pot is menial. My mother always tells me she would rather me smoke pot than smoke cigarettes,drink or anything else. I agree with Chem, I know MANY super successful lawyers, docs, and business owners that are regular pot smokers.

I don’t know if I’ll be able to go to lunch 🙁 I may have to hurry home depending on what time we get out of there. I have a Jim Gaffigan show to get to by 6!

According to Veena’s lessons I’m advanced. Just don’t have my handsprings/cartwheels yet. Even if I can’t do suggested combos, I can work up to them/modify them. I just love ideas!!

One of my favorite choreographers, for example, is Anne Murray. I LOVE her “Drop it Low” vid!!!

LOVE my Pleasers. They are only a year or so old but they're scuffed, filthy, and just as sexy as ever. There were a few months there where I would pole every(other)day and I wore these shoes as warm up/cool down dance shoes. They are suuuper comfy. I'm more comfortable in these heels than I am in my everyday street heels. If only it weren;t taboo to go to the store in my 7 inch heels!! lol I'm thinking it's definitely time for another pair or two.

Poler-you are going to be there, right? Are there going to be a lot of people in the workshop? Since it’s less than a month away I’m not sure how intense my training will be but I at least need to work on my splits because I read we will be doing split work…

Scarlett- I'm in the same boat. I have an advanced workshop in less than a month with Jamilla and I'm wondering the same things. Though I have my handgrip Ayshas, I'm more worried about the flexibility (I have an okay left split after a LONG warm up…) So I just assume get in a well rounded bunch of practices and you'll be fine. And I almost forgot who I was talking to…you dance at a pro level Scarlett. You have nothing to worry about. And as Emotion said, if by chance you don't nail a thing or two, they have alternatives! Just have fun. I've heard she is a sweatheart so don't fret!! You'll have a blast! 😉
