My neighbor Ed took me to a new hookah bar last night; I was looking forward to it all month long, however hookah bars are popular in greater cities, although I never had access to 1 until now.
I believe I had a glamorized vision of what it would be, although I have to say the reality was a big disappointment, however Ed had a better method of what to expect, so he had a fantastic time, although I was left a little nonplussed by the experience… Last year this state legalized medical cannabis, so I mistakenly assumed that it would be an option at the hookah bar; and to our dismay, there was no cannabis allowed in the hookah bar, it was only for smoking different kinds of tobacco products.
I wanted to smoke marijuana from a hookah, not nasty ancient tobacco! To calm our nerves I went onto Etsy and started looking for a hookah I could buy to smoke cannabis at home… A hookah features a large bowl connected to a water chamber, and a hose through which you inhale cannabis or tobacco smoke, however by passing the tube around the entire circle of people can get high from the same bowl of cannabis. It sounds like a great communal way to share the cannabis experience, and it simply would not be as fantastic to smoke tobacco instead. I am eagerly waiting for our handmade hookah to arrive in the mail, at which point I will ask for Ed to come over to smoke cannabis with me. I don’t plan to return to the hookah bar until they begin selling weed.
