snoop dogg is my thunder buddy by June
As I sit here writing this, I’m watching a
couple of blue jays rebuild their nest after
the recent storms we’ve had. We are all
feeling a bit battered after the past storms,
tornadoes and biblical flooding. Don’t
get me wrong, I love Oklahoma, but I
despise everything about tornado season,
right down to those T.V. weather JACK
WAGONS that thrive on winding us all up!
Even though everyone knows that here in
Edmond, we bribe the Tornado Overlords
to leave us alone, it doesn’t always
work, and I’m not gonna lie, I was pretty
scared! But unlike past years, THIS year
I wasn’t reduced to barricading myself in
the bathroom, wearing my husband’s fire
helmet and sobbing, whilst singing to my
dog. (Also not gonna lie, a fairly typical
evening around here, storms or no).
Since you asked, the reason I wasn’t
as scared is because I medicated with
cannabis.
This year, as part of my usual storm season
prep, I stopped by The Peak and picked
up a vape cartridge with Snoop Dogg O.G.
Indica. What a lifesaver! I used it liberally
whenever I started to feel overwhelmed
during the storms, and it worked beautifully.
Normally I avoid Indicas during the day,
preferring Sativas and my hybrid strains for
daytime and save the Indicas for evenings
to relax and sleep. In this case I knew my
anxiety would be ramping up along with
the super mesocyclones hook echo 3 -D
Doppler radar with the frim-fram sauce B.S.,
and any Sativa-based medication would
likely send me down the rabbit hole of
paranoia. Did not want to go there. Nope.
So it was Snoop to the rescue, and even
though I’m terrified of tornadoes, I can
now report I was able to get my shizzle
on (Snoop-speak for us hep cats) and go
about my life!  Medicating with alcohol
or tranquilizers for anxiety and stressful
situations, can be extremely dangerous,
especially when it is paramount to stay calm
and focused. 
Blue jay HGTV update: the male continues
to haul up these big gnarly twigs and the
second he shoves off to gather more, she
tosses them over the side, twittering the
whole while something to the effect of:
“What is wrong with him? Does he think we
all want to sit around here with sticks up our
arses?”
Thankfully, tornado season is winding
down, but until then,
May the Odds Be Forever in Your Favor!
