I finally gave in, and went down the the euphamistically named 'Compassionate Care Clinic' or, Weed Doctor, to use the more honest terminology. Actually having a legitimate medical condition was helpful, but completely superfluos. For a mere $100, I have a card that allows me to posses up to half a pound of dope at any given time, and grow up to twelve plants on my back patio. The doctor told me that all the records are completely confidential, the only time anyone from the government would ever know I was even there is if I get stopped by the cops and they had to call him to confirm that I was his patient. He was a big time legalization activist, and assured me that he would burn his patient files and go to jail for contempt of court before he'd ever tell the man about his peeps, and in my excellent judge of character, I believe him.
My next stop was the weed shop.
Up a flight of stairs in a completely nondescript building in a block of restaurants. The door was opened by a 300 pound samoan man, and a cute little hippy chick looked at the piece of paper the weed doctor gave me. I was then admitted into one of the most amazingly beautiful rooms I've ever been in.
A giant white board listed prices for 30 kinds of weed, and the incredibly helpful staff of more cute hippy girls were happy to explain which was better for sleeping, which you'd like if you need to smoke before work, etc.... the prices were the same as, if not slightly less expensive than, street prices.
They also had pound cake. Muffins. Brownies, peanut butter cups, chocolate bars, frosted flake cereal, THC infused cooking oil, all in various strengths of THC content, for less than I pay for gourmet chocolates at Leonidas. They had 20 kinds of hashish, something called 'gunk' that I, in 17 years of drug abuse, have never even heard of. They had THC infused soda pop, in flavors from root beer to apple. Because it was my first visit, I got a 25% discount and a free joint. I bought half an ounce of purple kush, some brownies and a grape pot soda, fucking legally. I would have bought more, but I was so overwhelmed I could barely think straight. I sit here amazed still.
