I had always been curious about Mushrooms... but then again in retrospect I had absolutely NO CLUE what they were about... For the majority of my life I had done nothing more than Alcohol and Weed(only a few times) but remained interested in Psychadelics... primarily and only seriously shrooms...
It wasn't until late 2000 that I first embarked on what would be looked back upon as "something life-altering"... Myself along with my lifetime friend "C", of whom has tripped on shrooms too many times to count as well as doing every drug there is early in life before slowing his roll, obtained some Psilocybe cubensis mushrooms and ingested them at roughly 10pm on a Friday night... Not knowing the course of these specimens I was quick to talk ish complaining that "shrooms were fake" and "we had wasted our money"... "C" just repeatedly laughed at me... On the way to his house I began feeling a bit "strange" and seemed increasingly aware of my surroundings... We stopped at the video store to rent Austin Powers 2 and odd enough we could not seem to find it... after about 25 minutes "C" finally asked for help and we were out within the next couple of minutes... After arriving at "C's" apartment we settled down for what I believed would soon be sleep...
WRONG... in the midst of talking smack I was interupted by what I describe as a digital interference only with my perception instead... that little blip in the T.V. screen...that "rush" that is oh too intriguing... before I knew it I was experiencing full and intense visuals... but more than that I was questioning this experience I was undergoing while it occurred... and although I could go into deep detail about the specifics of my experience I will just say that I had a deeply introspective trip this first time... as well as fun... and it increasingly became intellectual as I came down... I love the line I read somewhere on some shroom site... something to the effect of "... some experience a feeling of waking up from a state of sleep... and thier beshroomed state seems to be the true existence as if coming out of a fog for the first time... "... of course that was an attempt at a quote from memory... but I can say that my experience outlines that one statement exquisitly... I plan to eat Mushrooms again... and am looking forward to my second endeavor.
