Just wanted to write a bit about my trip in Vegas yesterday...times are approximate (gradually, I began to lose my sense of time). 7pm: Dropped two hits in the hotel room. 7:30pm: Went down to the casino to play blackjack. 7:45pm: Begin feeling very warm and sociable, grinding my teeth a little, VERY light-headed and couldn't take this huge grin off my face! I was buzzing. 8pm-9pm: feeling very focused and energized, having some deep conversation with my friend at the bar and watching the lights on stage very intensely..they seemed to beam down everywhere and light up the entire floor! Almost like they were creating the music itself..felt very emotional. 9pm: go to the Monorail to read the chart and it hits me like a ton of bricks..the letters begin to move in a wavy motion and come off of the chart..my friend and I walk into another hotel and I begin tripping out as I'm walking. I'm so light I feel like I'm floating off the ground and the floor appears to be moving instead of my legs (even tho I was walking just fine, apparently)..there are mirrors everywhere in the casino area; I begin to think people are vanishing as they walk behind or past the mirrors. 9:20/9:30ish: get on the monorail and begin to lose my balance a little, but I'm still incredibly focused on whatever I think about or look at..everything is now moving in fast motion. It's a bit hard to follow much of what people are talking about around me as I'm so inwardly focused on how I feel at the moment..looking outside at the strip is a trip..everything is grand, seems much larger than it is, and sounds gradually become more intense as does my perception of everything else. The ride seems like hours, but it's only 20 minutes. 10pm: strolling down the strip w/my friend..so many people and so much energy. All the music gets me excited and I start laughing hysterically..this went on for about 5 minutes straight! Tears rolled down my face, and then I felt something like cob-webs on my hands and kept trying to wipe them off, lol, but figured out it was just sweat and began to laugh at my own strange thinking. 10:20pm: start becoming a little confused about my surroundings..enter a nightclub and try to order a drink, but I can't make out what anyone is saying, including the bartender..so I just asked for water (probably a good idea as I was already dehydrated as hell by now) and took some B-12 vitamins I had with me. Now I was really buzzing... enjoying the scenery of drunk Vegas girls acting like dogs. It was really entertaining, for some reason, and by now (maybe 30-45min later) I was more able to socialize again and understand words and conversation. I socialized a lot more than usual, and with some incredible girls. That's all I'll say about that... Midnight: hop over to an outdoor concert/club on the strip from the other place..take some crazy risks gambling on blackjack again there, and double my money (usually I wouldn't risk anything like what I did, but it seemed like I was much more sharp and confident than usual - almost like I had an incredibly good instinct for what was going on around me). 2am: decide to head back to the hotel room..still tripping a little; mainly in the way I feel, but still seeing some minor visuals like waves and the lights now seem brighter than ever..like they light up the entire street itself as my friend and I are walking on it..I look up at the moon. It appears like there's a purple glow to it. After this, I get back to the room and watch TV most of the night and morning till about 7am, then crash for a couple hours. There was a pretty bad hangover after I got up around 11am to check out..but didn't really feel it till I tried eating a little, and noticed I couldn't (felt like I was going to spew if I did). Maybe next time I'll try to fast before I drop..I had only eaten a light snack (salad) the entire day, but maybe that was too much itself, since it was about an hour beforehand. I'm just glad I didn't feel any comedown before I fell asleep..and now it's pretty much gone. This is all very minor negative stuff, tho. I loved the experience and I still have quite a few hits left, so plan on doing more in a few days (maybe 4 at once to get better visuals..or should I space them out a little over a night?). Oh, and this was my first acid trip.
wow dude, you just fulfilled one of my goals must have been VERY amazing. how long will you be there?
life-changing, yes. I feel like a way more adventurous person now. I just got home a couple hours ago, actually, but the drive isn't bad. I think I'll have to try some X next time I go.
you're so lucky to live that close; id even suggest candy-flipping for next time maybe 2 E's and 4-5 hits
vegas is a veritable playground for the masses of heavy hedonistic heads im moving back 2 days before new years and god i cant wait to see how these little gel tabs ive hid in the fridge make the tripp

yea its the best in vegas... makes me feel like im in a boxed play pen.. and i can do watever i want... expecial on 2 hits = ) for 2 days... so awesome...cant even explain....= )
Wow you had your first acid trip alone and in vegas? Brave The hangover I would venture to say is from dehydration and LACK of food if anything. I know you will hear many people telling you to fast, but my 2 cents (and those of all my acid buddies) is to eat HEARTILY the day you are tripping, a few hours before you drop it. Make sure to also eat a nice meal about 8 hours into it. Not only is it fun as hell, you learn a lot about yourself and food, and I find it helps your body so much during the wracking experience you're going through It doesn't diminish the high at all. In fact if anything you are able to focus better and enjoy it more because your brain is not exhausted.
I find this to be very true for myself as well. It can be hard to ascertain that your body needs food when you're comin down. For me it's a vague lightheadedness and lack of energy. I treat it like I'm a baby and I need very gentle, easily digestible food (skim milk, fruit). What you eat under the infuence is important b/c your sensory filters are gone and the content of the food will be impossible to deny. Eating a cheeseburger or chocolate cake might be really hard to do, not only that it's hard to digest but because you know in the most naked sense that its made of complete shit and that it will not add to your alive-ness. I highly recommend eating some strawberries, pineapple, any flavorful or exotic fruit when you're coming down. The exultant celebration that takes place between the living enzymes of the fruit and your body leaves you thinking that the secret of the universe is nothing more than a bowl of strawberries.
I want to kiss you. "because you know in the most naked sense that its made of complete shit and that it will not add to your alive-ness." This is what made me quit alcohol. Drinking it on acid. As soon as the stuff touched my tongue, every fiber of being calmly asked me what on earth am i doing? When I swallowed it, my body informed me that it will digest this, but it is confused as to why this is being placed inside it, as it will actually drain energy, rather than give energy. And not just physical energy; i would be dull. "the secret of the universe is nothing more than a bowl of strawberries." that is a secret i would be ok with By the way, try some seafood on acid next time. You will be dumbstruck by the blue bounties you have neglected
