So we spent some time in Oregon last weekend.
And now I could talk about our lovely brunch at Tasty N Son’s in Portland, the scenic drive to Eugene, the beautiful vineyards, all the blah blah blah blog appropriate stuff.
Or.
Or I could dive into the part of the story I really want to talk about. Which begins in a cannabis store at 3:00 p.m. on a Friday, and ends just a few short hours later with me sitting at a table unable to talk to anyone around me as I was certain I was A. invisible or B. attending a play. And you don’t interact with people at a play, because they’re in a play! And you’re just an audience member. A very high audience member who probably shouldn’t eat edibles, because as it turns out, those magic little candies hit quite hard.
Which story should we go with? Part 1? Or part edible? I think we all know. And before you want to cast judgment, you can spare me. I’m an adult and it was perfectly legal. So when in Rome.
But truthfully, I didn’t go to Oregon with the intention to hit up a dispensary. It just not something I really care about. I’m not bothered by people who enjoy a little marijuana, it’s simply not my thing. My body is about 20 minutes from falling asleep at any given time as it is, so the last thing I need is something to chill me out even more.
Until it was last Friday at 2:00 p.m. and I was in the middle of a rather large group of Nebraska people gathered at a brewery in Eugene. Some people I knew, some people not so much. I don’t get nervous with large groups, I just get uncomfortable. Uncomfortable with small talk, to be specific. I just can’t do it. I look at those of you who can (like Chris) and I’m in awe at how easy you make it look.
Because when I give it a try it just feels so awkward and unnatural. I choke on my words, or talk over your words, worry I take too long to respond; the list of things going through my head while I sit “quietly” in whatever corner I’ve found are endless. I’m also aware how I tend to come off to others who are just meeting me- stand-offish… cold… rude… stuck up… (which doesn’t help the uneasiness.) Again, what I’m talking about here doesn’t keep me from going out in social situations by any means, it simply keeps me in my safe corner. Which I don’t always mind, until I do.
And that’s when I looked across the street and noticed a friendly Eugene edible store.
What a good way to band-aid my uncomfortableness I thought to myself, as the people around me continued to say things we introverts love to hear.
You’re super quiet! Are you okay? What’s wrong? Do you have a headache?
“You know what? I do have a headache,” I said. And then I walked across the street to self medicate.
The dispensary was clean and nice. Run by a friendly staff, just like every person we met in Oregon last weekend.
“What are you in the mood for?” The man behind the counter asked.
“A new personality,” I joked.
“Would you like to be chill or a little more active?”
“Let’s go with active!”
He gave me a blueberry gummy, something he said was, “super light and easy. You could take this before work and still be fine.”
How perfect! And without a second thought, I ate the candy and went on my merry way.
I would later realize me and dispensary-man had different ideas of what work means, at least that’s what I said to the rooster in the backyard of our AirBnB four hours later, whilst sitting in the chicken coop. Alone. Once again.
I was too nervous to go back inside because that play was going on in the kitchen. And last time I was in there (just quietly watching the theatrical conversations unfold before me) someone turned to me and asked me to participate. IN THE PLAY. But I hadn’t been given a script so I had no idea what to say.
So I just sat quietly and giggled, trying my best to avoid contact with the person sitting next to me, hoping if I didn’t answer they’d go on to another audience member.
But they pressed on.
“Taylor? Hello? So, are you coming to supper or not?”
Why is play man talking to me? And ohmygod what is supper? Suppppur. I haven’t heard that word forever. This must be a Midwest play! How fun. Supper. Sup. Per. Sounds like SUP, Perr. Perrrr. Purrrr. Purrr. I can roll my tongue.
I have a tongue!
And that’s when I figured out I was purring out loud. Had I interrupted the play? Why was everyone staring at me? Or were they?
When did human eyes get so big? Is everyone laughing at me? Am I laughing? Laughing is weird! Why do we do it?
I couldn’t be sure of anything, so I decided it would be best to close my eyes and tip-toe out of the room backward, hands held to my chest like a T-Rex, or a tiny quiet mouse. In doing so, I was sure no one in the kitchen would notice me leaving. Seemed like the most logical thing to do at the time.
And I found the chicken coop comforting.
The little animal sitting on the wire was like a little dog. With wings. And a beak. With a puffed out chest. Or like a …. oh my God no, MOTHMAN.
The candies turned on me at that point. So no, I didn’t make it to supper. Instead, I made it to bed by about 7:30 p.m. fully clothed, (because changing into pjs just wasn’t worth the risk.) What risk you may be wondering? I honestly had no idea, I just knew there were probably a lot of them.
In hindsight, eating edibles while on a family vacation wasn’t the best idea after all. But I can say that I learned a very important lesson from it all; and that’s to stay away from the blueberries in Oregon. Going forward, I’ll stick to brunch and Bloodys.
*there was never a play. so if you didn’t understand any of this, congrats on making better life choices than me.*
Oh Tay. So many comments, too worried about irl people reading them here. Glad you had fun!!
MY EX IS FINALLY BACK TO ME
I was so depressed when my ex left me for another woman. it made me felt like i was not relevant and my heart and love life was seriously destroyed. i could not concentrate in anything i was doing. i went online and searched for help but could not find any genuine spell caster until i went to Ocala Florida to visit my aunt to ease the depression and loneliness. when i got to Florida, i explained to my aunt who then felt pity for me and told me the secret she have not told anyone about the success in her marriage with her man. she then took me to the temple of powerful Dr. Ugo Wonders whom i met and explained my problems to. he promised to help me because of my aunt. i trusted his words and provided him with the materials needed to help me get my ex back and to my greatest surprise, after 48 hours of casting the spell, my Ex cam back on his knees begging for me to forgive him. i was shocked and surprised at the magic. we are happily married now and everything is working fine with us.I promised Dr. Ugo that i will never keep this a secret because he brought back my life and my world and that i will hare my testimony to the general public.
My advice goes to any one out there who is emotionally depressed or having any similar relationship problem, to contact Dr. Ugo wonders the ultimate spell caster via his direct email [email protected] or call his temple line on +1 386-336-9876 he is the best in Florida….

Pretty sure I just scared some of my coworkers because I was giggling so loudly. That was so worth reading!! Also, every day I wish I could be in bed by 7:30….
I legit cried from laughter reading this. It perfectly describes why my weed experiences are few and far between (OR native here). Also, no matter how hard they try to disguise it, it all tastes like skunk ass to me.
Best story of the day haha. Edibles will really get you! A little goes a long way.
Lol made me laugh out loud too! Was the candy tasty though? I haven't had edibles in a long time and I would love to try them again! Not legal in my state (yet) though but man I wish it was! It's so fun to try new things!
I'm Emily Dickson from USA I'm happy that my husband is back into my life after 2 years of divorce a strong spell caster named dr lagi brought him back I got his email online when a lady was testifying about the strong spell caster who restored her marriage then I said to myself since he helped her he can also help me so I emailed him and told him the pain that I was going through within 24 hours my husband came back home and our family is complete again If you are going through divorce since dr lagi helped me he can also help you email him at [email protected]
This was just the laugh I needed this morning! I feel you, on so many of those awkward, small talk, introvert, social, large group situations. I would have done just exactly what you did as well. Sometimes, life needs a little adventure like this. Bedtime by 7:30 doesn't sound so bad either! Thanks for the laugh 🙂
this is the best thing I've read this week. Edibles hit HARD – last time for me I was pretty sure I was melting into the hot tub at a Japanese bath house in the middle of the Tenderloin in San Francisco. But hey, sometimes its worth the story.
xo, Maddy
I am dying laughing! Hopefully you slept so good after your adventures with edibles.
My husband left 2 months ago. A week after he left I found out he was dating someone who posted a picture of him kissing her in fb and that she “loves this man”. I am sick to my stomach.

I’m so scared of losing him. i knew my husband and i also know that some thing else was involve on this when i found out that this woman use a magic spell on my husband just to take him away from me, i was so devastating this as a result also destroyed my heart and soul coz i love my husband and i really want to get back with him i have seek for different counselling, nor could work out for me so i started given up on my husband coz there was no hope on getting back with him. one faithful night after my work, i got home trying to search for a friend on my of facebook, i come across a love page on how to get ex back, fix your broken marriage and stop divorced i was so happy when i found out some wonderful comment and testimony of a real spell caster who has help a lot of people to get their husband back so i order for an urgent love spell to get my husband, i contacted him via..
