Seriously... I could care less how people see me. I just want some damn sleep! haha. Wife feels the same way.

And yeah, I'm stoked with the plants. They are quite happy... and those pictures were in the middle of the night, so they were a bit droopy. They're all perky in the day.

We had a great night out. Babies first trip into town... put her in the new stroller, well put her car set into it. Rolled through the grocery store, then along the lakeside path. Wife has been dreaming of that moment for years. So great to see it finally happen. Mom in law did her best to poop on the situation, but stand up husband stepped in and told her what is what. Cleared that situation up real quick. It's fun to be a bad ass sometimes.

Hope your weekends were great.

And about the whole left hand thing. I feel as though a part of me died when I had a kid. I just can't seem to take care of myself anymore. :( TMI I know, but that's what this thread is all about.

Watched 3 games on the trot on Saturday (was real happy with the Liverpool score). Sunday I never even turned on the TV so missed everything. Cheeky cable company have split the football package in two, so the one we have only gets Cahmpions League, and you have to subscribe to another (an extra 12 euro a month) to get Premiership....ffs. Something to do with people from the UK actually using European tv to watch the football instead of Sky Sports....will need to catch up on the Sunday results.

I'm up early/ late watching baby and the ashes. It's nice when your shift starts at 2am... right when the broadcast starts. It's cool watching the final test at the oval as I've been there.

Hope every one is doing alright. We have been thinking a lot of moving the past couple days. (as I get ready to finish my building lol)

Cool story... I only copied the first segment:

[h=1]Washington bar's patrons with pot are living the high life[/h]Cassie Hickam smokes marijuana as Jason Southwick sits nearby at Frankie's Sports Bar and Grill. "I'm home," Southwick said. "It's like I'm back in my basement. ... Except I'm out in public. Who ever thought we'd see this day?" (John Glionna / Los Angeles Times) More photos

[h=4]Frankie's Sports Bar and Grill might just be a pot smoker's paradise. Friends pass pipes and play pool, food and beer is always available, and the police can't touch it.[/h][h=3]BY JOHN M. GLIONNA[/h][h=3]REPORTING FROM OLYMPIA, WASH.[/h]Aug. 20, 2013


T
avern owner Frankie Schnarr takes a long draw from his bottle of Coors Light and scans his sports bar, listening to billiard balls rattle and a pinball machine explode with points.
Suddenly, there's that smell: musky-sweet, skunky yet somehow pleasing, an odor traditionally fraught with illegality.
Three men in jeans and sleeveless shirts shooting pool nearby fire up a small purple pipe packed with pot. They inhale deeply between shots, laughing, passing the bowl, mellowing their buzz with an occasional swig of beer.
Marijuana. Being brazenly smoked in public, right there under the bar owner's nose.
Schnarr smiles.
"You get used to the smell — it's like the mold at your Mom's house," he says, motioning for another Coors. "It's strange at first, but later you realize, 'Oh, that's what that is.' Some people walk in here these days and go, 'Oh, wow.' But most walk in and say: 'Oh, wow. This is cool!'"
At Frankie's Sports Bar and Grill, firing up a "fatty" or a "blunt" is not only condoned, it's welcomed. Last fall, Washington state legalized recreational marijuana use, allowing people to smoke the drug in private, but not in public places such as bars. Schnarr, 63, has found a way around that: He's using a space in his bar he says is private, not public.
Now the second floor of his sports bar — a mammoth room with TVs, card tables, 10 pool tables, four shuffleboard tables and rows of booths — is the only pub in the state to allow the practice. It's a rarefied realm where patrons burn joints and bowls of greenish weed in a free-for-all fashion that's still unknown in most of law-abiding America.
As state officials scramble to change the law and put a stop to Schnarr's reefer madness, patrons like Jason Southwick can't believe their good fortune.
The 32-year-old unemployed landscaper takes a bud of pot from a plastic medicine vial, packs his pipe and breathes in for a prolonged moment. His friends list ways stoners and boozers handle their buzzes differently: Pot smokers don't start fights and don't run people over at crosswalks.
"We're more chill," one woman says.
These stoners are polite people."
— Frankie Schnarr​

Southwick tries to blow a smoke ring, but coughs instead, his breath acrid, eyes inflamed. His friends smirk: He's broken an unwritten rule, greedily sucking in so much smoke that his lungs rebel.
He gazes up at a slow-turning ceiling fan for a prolonged moment. "Wow, man, that is strong," he says. He walks underneath, staring quizzically. "Have you ever seen anything like this? Dude, I've never felt so much wind in my life."
No one is listening.
Except Schnarr: Pot smokers like Southwick have translated into brisk business.
"These stoners are polite people," he said. "I haven't heard as much 'Yes, sir' and 'No, sir' in my 25 years in the bar business. And they spend money. After they start smoking, they may not drink as much. But they sure do eat."

I thought you'd think that was funny D.

Night shift was rough man. Upon review, baby slept WAYYYY too much yesterday during the light hours, so she was wide awake all night. Not really fussy so much, just awake and wanting attention. Was nice there was cricket on, but man I could use some sleep during the dark. Feeling like a vampire for sure. I need to work on the building to dry stuff out. Don't know if I mentioned the storm on this thread. Was a crazy mosoon flash storm that dumped a ton of rain into the building. Most shittily it was streaming down the studs right behind the drywall into the wall cavity. I think all can be saved, just needs to be taken apart to dry out. So a lot of the past couple weeks work will need to be undone. :( At least I don't need to replace it.

I flipped to 12/12 yesterday. It was hannah's due date. I figured I should get this grows show on the road to make room for the led grow I'll be doing. Did I mention that on this thread. I don't know what's with my head, well, ok... I do know, it's baby brain... but yeah, I keep forgetting to post stuff for you guys. I got pics of various things if anyone has any requests. One good thing is I'm barely smoking, so my stash is once again a life time supply, haha. One of the reasons I didn't mind flipping... even if I only get an ounce or so per plant I'll be more than set up.

Oh Wow... baby's asleep... i'm going to sleep too while I can. catch ya...

Yeah, get some shut eye pal. I've been up a lot of the night, too... except for mine wants to get up and run around the house, ffs, lol. She is so cute though. She just learned how to give hugs yesterday, and my heart is pretty much melted wax. Have you ever gotten a hug from a 10 month old? AMAZING. Lemme tell ya, you've got something to look forward to. You'll be balling. And they're fuking good hugs, too. Better than some of the dead fish I've encountered out there.

So what's this about an LED grow, Jig? This is the only thread I've had time to drop in on lately... Have you given thought to what unit you'd like to try?

I'm gonna go make coffee #2. Do yourself a favor. Get your kid sleeping in her own bed. If it's the last thing you do. Don't let your wife try and talk you into co sleeping. I'm a zombie. And I have to work in a couple hours.

Sucks about the storm man, and all the redone work. I wish I could offer to help bud. Where did the water come in, just through the roof?

Managing baby sleep times during the day is gonna be really hard at this stage,but it should get easier to control. I wanna say it only took my daughter about 2 months to start sleeping through the night without a problem. Another week or so and she might be to the only waking up once a night stage.

I'm can't wait to see how the new genetics treat you now that they are flipped. Should be a fun ride. Also interested to see what you do with the LEDs. Its funny how differently your grow has changed over the last several years. I love seeing the evolution :).

What up bobo. We already have her in her own bed. Baby sleeps and spends pretty much all her time in the living room. She doesn't go into our bedroom much. THe bedroom is a sanctuary of peace and sleep for whoever has the luxury of being in it. The living room is where the business happens, lol. It wasn't all that bad last night, just frustrating. I'm well rested, just don't really know what's up or down. I have been getting enough sleep I guess, just wish it would come in bigger chunks. We have only had her a week, so with some time all will be better.

I'm quite thankful that she is so good really. She eats well, doesn't throw up at all, and does all the rest alright too.

I love seeing the evolution :).
Funny you use that word. The company I'm getting the LED from is called growevolution.com. They contacted me and asked if I would be interested in trialing their lights in exchange for keeping a journal on a couple different sites including RIU. So we'll be rocking some purple action soon. They are cool looking tech these lights. Not the light bright looking ones I've seen around. So it's perfect really. It's cool to be trying out some new stuff. And from what I've seen on another thread here on RIU that is using their lights, the results look mighty mighty promising.

And I too am excited to not only see how I do with the new genetics, but how I do this run with soil. Without a doubt it should be better than last round. And 5 strains too. I'm pumped about that. Been wanting to smoke the psycho killer for a long time now. The OG kush should be really nice smoke. Grape Kush I don't know much about. The plushberry cross sounds yummy, and the J1 x gdp is one I'm really really excited to see how it turns out. I enjoy the J1 high and smell/ taste. Stoked to see what will come of all this.

The water was coming in the roof. I don't have paper or shingles up, so it was streaming through the gaps in the sheeting.

I remeber you mentioning the flash storm :-( that mother nature can be a huge bitch sometimes,,,, cant sleep on her, no way.


That was a nice article :-) I could quite clearly imagine being there,,, it was nice :eyesmoke: Congrats to them,,, now for the rest of the country to steer away from the absolute madness! I learned that Louisiana has the highest incarceration rate in the US and the US having the highest... So that means Louisiana has the highest incarceration rate in the world and by a ALLOT :-( I sometimes forget how fukin risky all this madness is.

You'll have to let me know how it goes with growevolution man, I got a pm from them a week or 2 ago, and honestly brushed it off as spam. If you actually get a light from them soon I'll have to get back in touch and see what I can score. I hadn't planned on running LEDs but I could swap out one of my veg lights for sure without an issue :).

My wife got an email saying she won $5,000 from the bottom of the receipt thing at Target. She thought it was spam and almost didn't mention it to me. I told her you better answer that email. 2 weeks later the gift cards came in the mail.

Things have to be pretty shady for me to not respond. I even conversed with a guy about one of those nigerian prince things once back in the day. The thing that stops me is when there is risk involved. Since I grow somewhat legally, and have a PO box I don't feel too awkward sending out my address. It would be different if I lived in your neck of the woods for sure.

About mother nature, it's so funny how we take dry skies for granted here in So cal. We're always surprised when it rains.

And about LA. Man it's sad that New Orleans is one of the 'worst' places in the world for certain things. As if they don't have it hard enough down there.
