First trip.

Picked up a few tabs tonight for my first time and I'll eat them soon, but, in the meantime, I was wondering if any of you had some suggestions on how I should take it, some things I should do for my first trip, how I should prepare, etc.
Another question? It's on some sugar cubes. How should I best preserve these and how long until it becomes inactive?

You could throw them in a zip lock and toss em in the freezer for safe keeping and that will help to keep them fresh. As far as what to do, Well, Just go with it, walk if you feel like walking, chill if you feel like chillin, ya know. Music is always fun on a trip, as is the internet, namely this site http://www.larrycarlson.com/flashmovies.htm. I could spend a whole trip in this dudes websites and some of his flash videos are interactive ie you move the mouse around and things change and shit....really cool way to spens a trip. Peace and enjoy.

Yeah, man. That's a way chill site. Thanks for that. I was thinking about walking and finding a sunny day. It's hard though, I'm anxious.
Um, I mean, I'm very experienced with mushrooms. Had dozens of trips. I'm just hoping that if I can handle them, I can handle the acid.

Light heat and moisture are the things you want to keep your tabs away from. Put them in tinfoil, and don't worry about the freezer for now since you're taking them soon. Put them in a cool dark place such as a closet etc. Even out of the fridge, they're good for many months in your closet. Since it's on a sugar cube, just chew it up into a few pieces, and hold the pieces under your tongue for faster effects. Have some music to listen to. Dark side of the moon, and other psychedelic albums are amazing.

Awesome, thanks a lot man. Yeah, that's one of the things I'm very excited for - Music!
A lot of thinking, too. I'm wondering if I should be outside? How safe that'd be. On mushrooms I tend do dance like a hippy.

From what I have been told about LSD it is not good to put it in tin foil, because it loses potency or something like that. I am no scientist and do not know for sure but I would definatley not use foil. If anyone knows either way for sure, it would be nice to find out. Peace

Plastic wrap first then foil, i would say. A cool & dark place
Well, if you have experience with mushrooms you'll be fine, just remember its a longer experience.
Id probably stay at home for the first couple of hours, just in case you realise "fuck im tripping to hard", then if you feel up to it go for a walk or however else you enjoy tripping

Is it very important to keep frozen?
I don't have a fridge that I can keep it in.
Is it also bad for it to be exposed back and forth between warm, cold, warm, cold, warm, cold temperatures?

Because they are sugar cubes, I would probably keep them in a drawer in some plastic wrap/foil that doesn't get opened to often.
Its not that important keeping it frozen, unless you intend to keep it for a long time before you trip. Make sure you store it properly -

Oh yes, and often overlooked, there may be only an infinitesimal amount of chlorine in treated tap water, but then there is only an infinitesimal amount of LSD in a typical LSD solution. And since chlorine will destroy LSD on contact, the dissolving of LSD in tap water is not appropriate.
from TiHKAL
And yeah, its probably worse for the potency if your taking it back and forth from warm to cold, I wouldn't carry your acid around with you unless you intend to drop it

Thanks a lot everybody.
But, it's stored in my room in a small box in tinfoil then plastic wrap and completely dark.
The only area of concern is that it was frozen from the guy I bought it from then I brought it to my house where a freezer is not available. I mean, it's not constant change, but is that still bad going from freezing to room temperature in just an hour or so?

Wrap them up in aluminum foil to help keep light out, and place them in the back of the freezer, away from warm air that will enter any time you open the door for other reasons.

Thanks a lot guys. I will get back to you all on how it was.
The weather's been nice here so I'm planning on going to Carkeek Park here in Seattle. It's got some nice thick evergreens and a beach.

Cool.
If you find something interesting to stare at, give it a go, a book of fantasy paintings (dragons, knights) or sci-fi stuff, or even an actual book to read.
Seems to be a trick when im acid, have a little meditation session on the come up and then traverse around, stare at things, play around the usual tripper stuff.
If after the peak (8-10 hours) you feel like going back in smoke a strong joint.
But yeah, acid is so fucking beautiful and amazing, it really is something.

Let me just add that LSD is the most beautiful chemical ever invented/discovered.

it does seem to base itself off of your imagination somewhat, and the place your in.

usually it just finds you, instead of the other way around.
Good places for acid - psytrance raves, large concerts for bands(phish).
Depending on who you meet you may find a hook up

Once a month, a group of people should get together in each state and teach others how to create top-notch needlepoint crystal. This way, each state would have it's share of acid supply, and if some get busted, others can take their place.

I think if i was producing "fluff", id have my own set of double sided blotter artwork, so peeps know the deal, and make sure i change it every so often.
Maybe have an insignia of some sort.
