Hmm. I'm getting the sense that there is a certain developmental window for indulging in illegal drugs. I guess I would be regressing if I tried to hang out with the college kids and crash their scene. And I would likely run into shady characters if I tried to find people in my own age bracket willing to help me remodel my synapses as a hobby.
I feel like I've never done anything risky. Well, except for going down the eleven-story waterslide in Japan. It was at a rather steep angle: straight down, perhaps 60 degrees? And I got the wedgie of my life. BUT I was the only girl to go on it all day long. They took my picture (probably to put on their whale-menu advertisements). Hello! Giant American girl defied gravity and gender to survive 2 seconds of absolute terror, weightlessness and chlorine enema. Available as sushi, sashimi, or whitegirlwhaleburger. White whale blubber's the tenderest source of energy on earth.
moo.
