Ketamine, getting a lot of press, the dissociative qualities of which were curious to me and so I lined some up and gave it a try.
Now the most notable thing - that sense of bi-location, being outside yourself, being both here and there, which - somewhat, not entirely, simulates an out of body experience, and music - wonderful and weird music playing on my youtube that the next day I can't find for the life of me. And - to add to the wonder of the bi-location, the friends I'm partying with report me in two places at once - as if I really was...
I found it curious, but not particularly worthwhile. Don't need to try that one twice...

And, in the whirlwind tour I spotted this in a thrift shop:
There is so much wrong with it - and I'm not referring to the competence of the artist - that I can't even begin. But what really unnerves me is the familiarity of the woman - I know her from someplace - is it Sam from Sex and the City? Or someone I used to work with? I don't know but it haunts me in the worst of all possible ways...

Now, my hood, the Co-op is the first choice, followed by Safeway. Prices roughly the same, although Safeway sells the spicy Thai chilies at $1.00 less than Co-op, still too expensive, $3.00 for 50 grams of chilies and a whole lot of extraneous packaging.
Am I supposed to eat these or snort them?
You can buy the same at Save-On Foods for around $10.00 per pound, which works out to about 80% cheaper - more or less, but Save-On is a bit of a drive away and I can't eat THAT many chilies to justify the gas.
But today, up in the NE, stop by H&W Produce, and - WOW, I've grown too used to being fucked over by Co-op. 98 Cents per avocado, and some are even ripe. At Co-op, $2.50, $3.00 per, and you're buying futures, they're so hard they won't be ripe for weeks. Field-berries for $1.28 a package...Habanero Peppers for $7.00/lb, beets $1.27/lb, I could go on.
Suffice it to stay I'll stick with Co-op for trivial, non-green-grocer things, but for produce it's H&W all the way. I saved - VS Co-op - easily $12.00 today - on a $7.00 purchase.

Spotted this in a thrift shop and had to share:
I think it's Jesus. Probably it's drawn very true to life, I wasn't there, but it could probably benefit from a bit of restoration...

The art shredding incident...
I started this blog post on my phone the day it happened, then it got blown up all over the media, so there's really no need for me to mention it, but it was a very clever stunt. And I'm pretty sure the auction house was in on it.
