*FICTION, NONE OF THIS HAPPENS. JUST A BEGINNING FOR A STORY, I GUESS.*

I smoke pot. And I have to say, it's one of the greatest things I think I've ever done. Regardless of how people feel about it, I enjoy smoking. I never let it interfere with my schoolwork, I only smoke a) if I have no homework and no tests the following day, or b) it's the weekend and I have no homework and no tests on Monday.

It seemed like weed was the best thing to happen to me - I got popular, was making money, I got a girlfriend, the works. She became a regular and entered our group, and Dev recruited her to help with our weed sales. Liz was very popular, and had connections that Dev and I couldn't quite reach. The more we smoked, the better weed we got, and the better weed weed we got, the more our customers bought from us. It was a fantastic cycle.
