Hemp & Pot


I hate pot, not just for the typical it's an illegal drug and I meet with families who's kids are using and screwing up their life or at times the parent is using and screwing up every bodies life.
I specifically hate the smell of it. A few people know that I am sensitive to the scent and will make fun of me when we are out and about and I start gagging uncontrollably or make cross-eyed faces as we pass someone on the street. I even smelled it in a close friends apartment once and started questioning her, after thinking about it she remembered someone had given her some rope soap, that she had been using as a closet air freshener, sure enough that was it.
Today I met with a new family and someone must have used the extra strength hemp shampoo. I was nauseous by the time the 1 hour session was up. Luckily I had a two hour meeting after that, and then went out to lunch with co-workers. I came back 3 HOURS LATER, and my office still smelled. So I pulled out my emergency lavender air freshener (typically used post session for adolescent boys who haven't heard of Degree or Old Spice yet) and opened the window. With half an hour of airing out it was mostly dispersed.

It's so funny that my friend Kristina blogged last night with a title of "I Got Stoned." Between the two of your posts, I was beginning to wonder (before I had read them, that is--she got a hot stone massage).
