note to self

just a note to self. really. don't read this.
just heard an interesting tidbit on the radio: a very well-spoken toxicologist at the mic with some book i'd like to read but i failed to catch her name or the name of her book.

minor bit anyway about how stimulants make your pupils dilate and opiates make them shrink and that if a junky is telling you they are jonesing from withdrawl but their eyes are not dilated, they are lying...
the pupils don't lie. hmm.
still.
seems like it would be the precise opposite effect: that speed would shrink the amount of light you'd want to take in and opiates would welcome all the light they could get.

also. tidbit 2 - bolting naked is a 98% indicator of PCP

and the other 2%??
extreme stress at work??

what to do with notes to self?
no idea.

NOT research!

whatever happened to 'angel dust?' That used to be the drug to really fear back when. I enjoy your occasional random tidbits and notes to self. I also enjoy the random streams of consciousness so I look forward to those soon. And how about that wind last night? I hope the debris isn't too much around the park.

actually pcp is angel dust. not that i have any working knowledge..
apparently it's making a comback but i have yet to see naked, small-pupiled people bolting anywhere in my environs, for which I'm thankful.

also, another trendy thing... dipping cigarettes in embalming fluid before smoking.
.now that's just funny.
could you possibly have less respect for your body?
i don't really know where to get embalming fluid..

99c store??

anyway be careful oot and aboot, eh?
don't want you getting taken out by a flying tree branch!
