FO SHEEZY!!!
I confess, I overslept an hour, and called out to get some work done: just woke back up, gonna shower and spawn 5 shoeboxes: 2 MS RW, 1 PE6 (CLONE),1 AA+(CLONE), & 1 Texas (cloned 8+ month dried fruit from bought shrooms that seems to already have been an isolate)

I feel like there is no ego death, just ego fracturing, the ego seems to build back up stronger after being attacked

I bought 200 for $5. I've tried making my own and realized it just wasn't worth it. Plus I like how much longer and better packaged pre sterilized swabs are. I always feel like I'm contaminating the swab thing to get foil off

Yeah fuck that I bought a 200 pack packaged sterile too. Make your swab, slide it in folded foil, snap off whats hanging out of the foil. Done

Free from work. They do have a liquid preservative on the top but if you don't break it it's a sterile swab.

I confess. I stayed home today to avoid milling plant matter in favor of grain inoculation and agar expansion.

Twins! Except I'd be working on equipment outdoors in the cold rain instead of PC-ing grain and G2G.

So cold. Can't wait to get home and slip into a nice warm SAB.

I have a box with probably 30 quart jars filled with sub, coir, spawn, &/or mostly mold gifted from my roommate. The box is like 3+ years old, I'm still not even sure if that's worth attempting to clean it out.

I confess when my neighbor came over for dinner he opened the closet door on the way to the bathroom. He saw 6 jars 2 myco bags and an LC all in different stages of colonization. I told him it was an experiment. He said "I know exactly what that is". Then he said "let me know if you want to go to my cabin and trip sometime."

I finally scored some DMT and tried it last night!!!!

I'm resisting the urge to write a trip report.. It was a profound experience and I think I just peeked in the window. I'm going to do it again tomorrow night and I cannot wait!
Bucket list item checked! It's not enough! I need more!!
