Mankato MN Head Shop, New Bong(pic), Cops & Horrifying Salvia Trip

[FaaipDeOiad]

**UPDATE 2 ** Woke up today with a message on my phone from the court administrator of Watonwan county MN, she told me that they had finally received the ticket from the trooper and he marked me down as a passenger for the open container as opposed to the driver, which gets me out of a court date!! ...on the other hand, my fine is higher than they had thought, now more like $450 but at least i can just mail in a check and hopefully forget about it...that is, until it shows up in the paper and everyone freaks on me

**UPDATE 1** ..just called in to get my fine amounts, i have a mandatory court appearance and looks like the minimum fine amount is going to be $350, the lady said to call her back in a week though, and she would try to work around the court appearance..cross your fingers guys


Where to begin…Saturday was probably one of the most fucked up days of my life.

It all started innocently enough, my girlfriend, a buddy of mine, and myself were planning a trip from Sioux Falls SD to Mankato MN to hit up Professor’s Pipes and Stuff to do a little glass shopping. We left around noon and the drive up was uneventful, and we found the shop easily enough after doing a little searching around.

Got in there and perused their stock, which was great, and ended up getting a nice glass color changing pipe and one hitter for my buddy (who is under 18 and didn’t come in) and a bong for myself (below). Before leaving I asked the guy behind the counter if there was anyplace in town that sold salvia, he pointed me to “Pure Pleasure” and told me how to find it, which we promptly did! …ended up getting some 25x “thunderbolt” shit and started the journey home

…which is where things get hairy

I’m cruisin along on 169 at approximately 70mph at which point my fuzz buster goes off and I tap the breaks and see the po po go by me…I see him hit the breaks and know what im in store for right away, he catches up and puts his lights on so I pull over. He comes up and gives me the usual line about speeding and I joke that in SD our speed limit is a little higher, trying to keep things light and not act like im hiding anything. Keep in mind I wasn’t sure if he was going to smash my new glass, plus I’ve got a bottle of vodka in the back seat which I had forgotten about completely(im 19…no good). He goes to the squad car, comes back and asks me to step out of the vehicle, so im shittin pants…they don’t normally pull you out outta the car just to give you a speeding ticket. He gives me the ticket, which im relieved to see is only a warning…but before I can thank him for letting me off light he asks me what im doing in MN…I panic a little like a noob and say visiting family, which was dumb in retrospect, but my girlfriend and my buddy are cousins who both have family in MN and we’ve made several trips to visit them together…so I figured if he asked them they would say the same.

Sure enough, he goes back to the car and asks them…and they tell him the same story, but this is where the bastard played me like a fiddle. He comes back, looking pissed as fuck, and says “so..you were with them the whole time?” I say yes…he looks even more pissed now… “what was the name of the person you were visiting?” … I folded, thinking they must have told him something completely different (just what he wanted me to think) and said “I’ll level with you, we’ve got some pipes in the car, I wasn’t sure about the legality”, he says ok and that he’ll have to see the pipes and tells me he has to search the car now and puts me in his back seat after patting myself and everyone else down on the side of the road. He searches for about 10 minutes, doesn’t even look in the trunk, and returns to the front seat of the squad car with my vodka and bag with the glass in it. He ends up not doing anything about the pipes since they were un-used, asks me about the salvia and I tell him its legal so he gives me the stink eye and puts it back in the bag with the glass.

Long story short, I got off on the pipes, but got a ticket for possession and open container and he let us go…

We get back to SD, head to another friend of mines house, I tell him the story and he was kind enough to help me break in the new bong with some really dank nug before I went home.

…cut to later, my girlfriend and I in my bedroom.

Previously, I had done a few hits of 5x salvia and laughed my ass off and saw a few trees, so I was expecting even bigger and better things out of my 25x… I should be more careful what I wish for. I loaded a couple pinches into the new bong, took the biggest rip I could…and in the next few minutes my entire concept of reality was completely shattered, and not in a good way.

According to my girlfriend, I said “its happening!” and handed her the bong, after which I pointed at something and kept repeating something about “the patterns.” Then she said I looked across the room and flipped out and started screaming violently…stood up and basically started destroying my room, ripping posters off the wall and shoving things off my dresser as I stumbled toward the door screaming “I don’t know whats happening!”and “somethings wrong!” …thank god she was able to wrestle me back into my bed because I surely would have died trying to get down my stairs…

From here I remember my first semi-conscious moment being a feeling of unrelenting horror, I kept thinking that this is exactly what it feels like to die, I couldnt remember seeing anything in my room (my eyes may have been closed), I just remember being wrestled onto my bed and sat against the head board which I instantly felt like I was apart of, as in I felt like I had melted into it and could not move away from it.

The only way that I can describe the sensation, is an immensely intense vibration…I felt like every molecule in my body was about to be ripped apart atom by atom, I literally thought I could feel every molecule, every atom, and it hurt. I felt like part of my soul(for lack of a better term) had been ripped from my body and placed in a different dimension, and I was tethered to my body by some tiny string which only allowed me to feel the raw electrical input that sensations were sending to my brain, and they were intense, so intense it hurt…I couldn’t comprehend it all, it was like a sensory overload.

The strangest thing I remember about this ‘dimension’ was that it felt like I belonged there, like IT was reality…and the ‘real’ world was temporary and false, it felt like this place was timeless and that I had always been there. Like my ‘real life’ had been the hallucination all along and I was just now being re-introduced to the universe as it actually is. THAT I think is what filled me with so much dread, I never thought I would go back to my ‘real life’…that everything familiar was lost, all the people in my life, my girlfriend, my loved ones, all of them were fakes and I would never experience them again…as though I was infact dead to that world and leaving it.

Thank god that wasn’t the case…as I slowly regained my ability to ‘see’ and remembered that I was in my bedroom and that I had done salvia, I had several hallucinations…most notably I saw blood all over the floor, I was convinced I had hurt my girlfriend and became freaked out again…as time passed and I got better in increments I remember crying and not feeling real…like I still didn’t REALLY belong here…even though I recognized everything again and was able to think a little more critically. It just didn’t feel like ‘home’

..anyway this post has gotten WAY to long, sorry about that…I had allot to recount though, thanks to those who read it, and heres my new piece!

haha tight, its a great little shop! The guy behind the counter was super cool, we chatted for a while and he helped me pick out a good pipe for my buddy.

...no offense, but i'll be happy if i dont make it back there for a long ass time, hopefully i can just mail in my fine and not have to show up for court

how long did you slvia trip last? I want to do one just not sure how long they last?

[Starlore]

The cop seemed to play it pretty straight, giving you the pipes and the salvia back.

i really had no concept of time passage...but the real intensity must have lasted a good 15 minutes, i was pretty freaked out for a good 45 minutes though before i finally felt grounded again...if you do, just be someplace safe with somebody who can take care of you, the good thing about salvia is IF you do have a bad trip...it wont have you freaked out for hours like some other hallucinogens

He was cool about the pipes, we even joked about how i was going to use them for tabacco when i got home

..he did play a real DIRTY trick though, after he asked me about my story he went back to talk to the two in the car, they said the first thing he said was "wheres the other sack? he said there was another sack in here?"

thankfully we left all our shit at home...but had my buddy had some, he probably would have fallen for it and forked it over, be weary of that shit if your ever in a similar situation..dont cough it up unless you really gotta.
