not too much..just enough to where my brain shuts down and I get a good nights sleep..I stopped whiskey about 3 months ago...I still will have a G&T or some vodka drinks though
I’m picking up a bottle of cannabis aperitif at a new dispensary this afternoon. Cheers.

I've moved to hemp flower. Low in normal THC but high in a bunch of other stuff, something called delta 9 or some shit. It's legal in every state cause of the low THC content.

A local dispensary that is closer to me (vs. my go-to) recently went recreational so I will try that today. Vape cartridges for the win.
