Flashback '83

[trimtan1]

Summer of '83, two friends of mine convince me to take my first of only seven acids trips in my life. Just a quarter of four-way, but it was plenty strong.

Listening to Pink and Kansas, drinking Jack,...............staring at the Kansas album, Dust in the Wind, "swimming" in front of me. I looked up at the Pink poster above the doorway............and the "lines" had become apparent. Glancing at my buddy Dave, his face melted right in front of me. I knew at that time I had to get out of this house.

We walked and walked and walked.........as the street lights beckoned us on. Burning a pound of weight per mile I'm sure. Stopped in at the local Gerbes in an effort to heighten our buzz...........and it was at that time I realized the "grinning lockjaw" that cannot be removed while tripping. The shiteating grin that is irremovable, and also unequivocal. Also alerting everyone in there that you are fully altered. LOL

Played frisbee in the warm summer evening after that......watching as it soared through the air in several "freeze-frames". Whiskey and Weed through the next several hours to finally wind down.............staring at the wall, because he's the only one still up at this point.

18 hours later it was bedtime.

This activity would kill me today. Memories.

I've done acid at least a dozen times and never once did I see someones face melt. I did see the universe once in this sepia toned map color with longitude and lattitude lines drawn throughout everything as I sailed my three masted scooner towards the stars.

Nothing wrong with a little mind expansion.

Wodin,
The 4way (windowpane) was quite potent, and for a first trip to see someone's face do that.............it was a fry to say the least. I mean, I've tried the microdots, and barrels, and snoopys............but they were more of an "electric drunk" than a visual trip.

Always tried to keep my dosages at a safe level after that, until finally realizing that it's just not good for you. But had some buddies that took enough to take them to the "Lucy in the Skies" mental level, where your eyes roll back in your head and you leave this world for awhile. It's weird to watch someone "falling" laying in the floor.

Not interested in that.
