This story is about an experience I had quite a few years ago, and for what it's worth, this certainly isn't something you would find in the pages of my journal presently. That said:

Once upon a time, while under the influence of ecstacy, I found myself persuaded to experiment with a little mescaline. After I had taken the stuff we all decided to head outside for a little bong session (of course, hindsight being 20/20, we probably should have waited a least a few minutes to see how high we already were, but since we didn't the story continues...). We all sat in a circle, and started smoking. After the bong had passed through my hands a couple times I started to notice that I was noticeably higher off the ground than the rest of the group. I didn't pay much attention to this at first (which gives you a hint as to my state of mind), but as the session continued I found it increasingly hard to ignore. I tried to assess the situation- Was I really floating, or was I tripping? I carefully examined the rest of the group, and after a few minutes (or was it hours? ) I came to the conclusion that I was definately floating. What I found strange was that no-one else had noticed. Finally I couldn't keep my mouth shut any longer. "What the hell is the matter w/you guys," I asked, "haven't you noticed that I'm fucking FLOATING here!!" Everyone turned to look at me and they all started laughing, much to my confusion. That's when my buddy pointed out that I was sitting on a stool.

Good Times.

I snorted it, I don't really know how much, but two good sized lines, one up each nostril (I was told by the people I was with that that was the best way). It was indeed VERY bitter tasting, noticeably more so than other drugs I've snorted. I tripped for a long time, about 10 hours with my peak after about 4. It was (and will be) my only experience with the stuff, so I don't know how potent it was in comparison to other methods of ingestion or whatever, but I certainly didn't feel like I wanted to be any higher

the simplest way is very easy...you can just chew it...natives say that if your soul if pure you will not taste the bitterness

"Some years ago I myself made some observations on...nitrous oxide intoxication, and reported them in print. One conclusion was forced upon my mind at that time, and my impression of its truth has ever since remained unshaken. It is that our normal waking consciousness, rational consciousness as we call it, is but one special type of consciousness, whilst all about it, parted from it by the filmiest of screens, there lie potential forms of consciousness entirely different. We may go through life without suspecting their existence; but apply the requisite stimulus, and at a touch they are there in all their completeness, definite types of mentality which probably somewhere have their field of application and adaptation. No account of the universe in its totality can be final which leaves these other forms of consciousness quite disregarded. How to regard them is the question,--for they are so discontinuous with ordinary consciousness. Yet they may determine attitudes though they fail to give a map. At any rate, they forbid a premature closing of our accounts with reality. Looking back on my own experiences, they all converge towards a kind of insight to which I cannot help ascribing some metaphysical significance."

--William James, The Varieties of Religious Experience (1902, New American Library edition 1958) p 298.


As for my own experiences, I've been saving a couple buttons for a while now...
