Tripping tonight - first time in 10 years

I just dried my first fruits. Me and a buddy are gonna down them tonight, he should be over any time now. I've done shrooms before, but it was a long time ago, so I'm probably gonna stick with around 2 grams... that includes some aborts.
I'm working on a mellow playlist, got video games if we feel froggy. Any suggestions on something cool to do while trippin'? I'm sure just sitting here will be cool, but suggestions are appreciated.

Sounds like a fun time. I don't think you'll have any problems at all finding cool stuff to "do." 
Some good stuff to have on hand if you can...
-fruit -paper, pens, colored pencils or crayons -a pillow and blanket -books full of trippy art or children's stories -a bit of pot or a glass of wine (nice for coming down)
Really, not much is needed at all! The above is just what I usually try to have in my vacinity while shrooming.
Have a wonderful time. I'll be thinking of you.

hehe, thanks. Just used a coffe grinder and we downed about 1.5 grams each with a shot glass of grape juice (slight "mushroom" flavour, not bad at all). Here we go...

Definitely give a trip report. Can't imagine 'remembering' after 10 years.

Why would you say that he's lying? 
When I tripped off my own homegrown mushrooms 6 months ago it was the first time that I had tripped in 20 years.

20 years, wtf have you been doing with your life? jerking off or what?
--------------------
  "There is a world beyond ours, a world that is far away, nearby, and invisible. And there is where God lives, where the dead live, the spirits and the saints, a world where everything has already happened and everything is known. That world talks. It has a language of its own. I report what it says. The sacred mushroom takes me by the hand and brings me to the world where everything is known. It is they, the sacred mushrooms, that speak in a way I can understand."

I'm 33 and it has easily been 10 years since I last tripped.
Trip report: Me and a friend dosed, with a 3rd friend along smoking some pot and dringking "near beer" Onset began in 15 minutes. Increased heart beat and slight anxieity, but this passed around the 45 minute mark. No stomach problems at all during the trip. Shortly before dosing, someone had mentioned ordering pizza. I inquired about when it was going to arrive, and found that the order had never been placed. I was relieved, but every several minutes for the first hour of the trip I would think "Oh no, the pizza man is comming", only to remember he wasn't.
We started off just talking, and started playing Need For Speed: Most Wanted. It was fairly fun, and though me and the other tripper were having "problems" driving, we somehow managed to beat the non-tripper every time. It was getting pretty intense, and we should have dropped the video games at this point, but we attempted to play a LAN game of Conflict Global Storm. This didn't go so well. If an enemy was in sight, it was easy enough, but when left to navigate it quickly devolved into aimlessly walking around with absolutley no idea which direction might be good to go in. This didn't last too long.
After 1-1.5 hours, we were approaching peak, and just sat listening to music and talked. Every thing was funny, and I alternated between euphoria and intense laughter at the subject matter, which I don't really remember. I got froggy and made it into the next room to play some guitar. I've been playing for 16 years, so it was easy to "auto pilot" and I got a great rush out of watching my fingers make the music.
Next 2-3 hours we just sat and talked/laughed. Closed eye visuals were apparent and enjoyable, but not intense, I found myself having trouble concentrating on them. Pinwheels, tunnels, some mild fractals. It prompted me to do a google images search for "psychadelic". Craziness.
I at a BUNCH of sweets. Chocolate bar (with almonds), brownies, chocolate chip cookies, and iced animal crackers. Delicious (especially the chocolate bar). More sugar than I would normally eat in a week, but I think the calories did me good. I had some beef jerkey, but the texture and taste weren't doing it for me, one bite was all I could handle.
Some slight stiffness of the neck, it seemed to bother my friend moreso than me. I found that trying to ignore it was worse than consciously attempting to relax, as relaxing really helped, and would bring on another rush of euphoria. Saddly, I think my friend prefered to fight it, and it became an unplesant aspect for him.
As far as learning anything, the revelations came (only) fairly early in the trip, and though it's a bit foggy, I realised how silly I've been behaving twards a few individuals I work with. No need for details here, but it's odd how you can get locked into a mode over petty shit. Worthless competition between egos.
Anyway, I had a blast. It was very controllable, and was never "too strong". This was just over a gram, with some aborts mixed in. I'm a little dazed, not tired, not sore at all. Straight guy drove my friend home. Just before he left he stated that he "might take less next time". I know he enjoyed himself, but the muscle tension obviously got to him a bit.
All in all, it was awesome eating my first home grown shrooms. Had a blast from start to finish, and plan on doing it again in a month or so.

Cool report! 
LoL on the game of CGS. I've had the neck tension too, glad you were able to get past it. Did it come with the negative thoughts of work? I notice that connection sometimes, just not sure which one causes the other.
Glad you had a great time with your first grow!

>>>>I've had the neck tension too, glad you were able to get past it. Did it come with the negative thoughts of work?
The tension didn't seem to be associated with any thought process, it was just kinda there. Very mild compared to what I remember of LSD. And the euphoria was equal, if not better than LSD. I like shrooms
