I was happy to leave Myakka City after years of begrudgingly living there with my parents during my last few years of high school. I had to get on a bus every morning for an hour because the closest high school was in Arcadia. After being isolated in the swamplands of inner Florida, moving to Brevard County was like a dream come true. Cocoa Beach is one of the nicest beaches in the country and being within driving distance is a huge privilege for me. I always relished the few instances growing up when my family traveled far enough west to visit one of the beaches in Sarasota County. But now that I’m living in Cocoa, I have been visiting the beach every other day when the weather permits. However, warm beach weather also means that I’ll be using my air conditioner more often than in other climates where it’s colder. Thankfully there are a number of HVAC dealers all over Brevard County to choose from. I had an HVAC supplier for the longest time that was based out of Port St John and was located on North Cocoa Boulevard. After that heating and cooling company went out of business, I started working with a different one in Rockledge Gardens. They offered me a discount on a maintenance contract for my air conditioner. Summers in Cocoa get particularly warm, so I’m naturally using my air conditioner constantly from April until early September every year. As long as I’m smart about my air conditioner maintenance and service, the HVAC system keeps running smoothly without any problems.
My Tampa apartment is easy to heat with a simple space heater
I started attending the University of South Florida two years ago when COVID was brewing for the first time.
Most of my classes were online at first, but eventually we transitioned back to a more normal educational environment. I lived on campus for a year, but quickly realized that I didn’t like cramped dorm rooms. I have a friend at the University of Tampa and another friend at Hillsborough Community College, and we all like to order pizza and watch football or hockey games on the TV at one of our apartments. My apartment is a studio in Temple Terrace, just a few minutes down the road from Busch Gardens and Adventure Island. Although the studio apartment has a package heating and cooling system with an electric furnace, it’s much cheaper to heat this place in the winter with an efficient radiant space heater. Tampa has fluctuating temperatures in the winter season. Some days it’s cold in Tampa, and other days it’s in the 80s during the afternoon regardless of the winter freeze in the rest of the country. Yesterday the temperature dropped down to 48 degrees at night and didn’t get above 52 during the day when I took a trip to the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg. Since it’s so close to the water of Tampa Bay, the wind chill was in the high 30s for the duration of the afternoon. I didn’t wear warm enough clothing and started to shiver in the car driving north on Interstate 275 heading back to my home in Temple Terrace. I had fun in St. Petersburg, but it would have been a better trip had the weather been more mild.
The capital of Canada
There was a giant art even-handed on Nassau Street & the two of us stopped to look at the booths
I met my wifey before the more than 2 of us picked up our lives & moved to Toronto. We lived in the nation’s capital, Ottawa, & met at the University of Ottawa. Visually, Ottawa is a gorgeous city. However, there isn’t a strong bohemian presence in Ottawa prefer there is in Toronto. My parents are fairly bohemian & both went to the University of Toronto years ago when marijuana was illegal in canada. They still use marijuana to this morning & were marijuana activists while I was in their time in school. They told myself and others stories about the West Queens West neighborhood with Trinity Bellwoods Park & the Trinity Bellwoods Farmers Market. There’s even a hockey rink while I was in the Winter time season in this park, & a dog bowl as well. But 1 neighborhood that they were particularly fond of was Kensington Market. Between Chinatown & Little Italy, Kensington Market is a bohemian community with artists & independently owned shops, cafes, & bakeries. When my wifey & I visited Toronto, the two of us got super baked in our hotel room & walked down to Kensington Market on a Tuesday day. There was a giant art even-handed on Nassau Street & the two of us stopped to look at the booths. We were undoubtedly higher than the two of us expected because the jar of Skywalker OG flower buds was tested at 32% THC, which is much stronger than what either of us is used to smoking in Ottawa. Regardless, the two of us really loved our trip to Toronto & the time the two of us spent in locations prefer Kensington Market & West Queens West. Toronto has a lot of cultural diversity if you’re willing to take a look while you’re meandering through the city.

My Tampa house is quite small and easy to heat
I started attending the University of South FL more than 2 years ago when COVID was brewing for the first time.
Most of my classes were online at first, however eventually every one of us transitioned back to a more normal educational environment.
I lived on campus for a year, however abruptly realized that I didn’t prefer cramped dorm rooms. I have a neighbor at the University of Tampa & another neighbor at Hillsborough Community College, & every one of us all prefer to order pizza & watch pigskin or hockey games on the TV at 1 of our apartments. My house is a studio in Temple Terrace, just a few minutes down the road from Busch Gardens & Adventure Island. Although the studio house has a package heating & cooling idea with an electric oil furnace, it’s much cheaper to heat this venue in the Winter time with an efficient radiant space heater. Tampa has fluctuating un-even temperatures in the Winter time season. Some days it’s freezing in Tampa, & other days it’s in the 74s during the afternoon regardless of the Winter time freeze in the rest of the country. Yesterday the temperature dropped down to 48 degrees at night & didn’t get above 52 during the morning when I took a trip to the Salvador Dali Museum in St, and petersburg. Since it’s so close to the water of Tampa Bay, the wind chill was in the high 30s for the duration of the afternoon. I didn’t wear sizzling enough clothing & started to shiver in the vehicle driving north on Interstate 269 heading back to my loft in Temple Terrace. I had fun in St. Petersburg, however it would have been a better trip had the weather been more mild.
We are going to explore so many different options
I met my boyfriend before the more than one of us picked up our lives as well as moved to Toronto.

Some years I never turn the heater on
I started attending the University of South Florida 2 years ago when COVID was brewing for the first time.
Most of our classes were online at first, but eventually we transitioned back to a more normal educational environment. I lived on campus for a year, but quickly realized that I didn’t love cramped dorm rooms. I have a acquaintance at the University of Tampa plus another acquaintance at Hillsborough Community College, plus we all love to order pizza plus watch pigskin or hockey games on the TV at 1 of our apartments. My apartment is a studio in Temple Terrace, just a few thirds down the road from Busch Gardens plus Adventure Island. Although the studio apartment has a package heating plus cooling plan with an electric oil furnace, it’s much cheaper to heat this place in the Winter time with an efficient radiant space heater. Tampa has fluctuating un-even temperatures in the Winter time season. Some days it’s cold in Tampa, plus other days it’s in the 71s during the afternoon regardless of the Winter time freeze in the rest of the country.

Since it’s so close to the water of Tampa Bay, the wind chill was in the high 30s for the duration of the afternoon. I didn’t wear sizzling enough clothing plus started to shiver in the vehicle driving north on Interstate 269 heading back to our cabin in Temple Terrace. I had fun in St. Petersburg, but it would have been a better trip had the weather been more mild.
My mom would have been so angry with me
I looked at a lot of different colleges when I was making my final selections.
I visited places in different parts of the country and my favorite place turned out to be a college close to San Francisco.
I went to the San Francisco college for a weekend visit, when I was a senior in high school. One other student was on the trip with me. My mom and dad wanted to go, but I told them the school was already sending a chaperone. That wasn’t entirely true. There was a resident advisor in charge of our weekend at the college. Other than that, we were going to be on our own. When Jack and I arrived on campus, we had two hours to kill while we waited for the resident advisor to finish his afternoon class. Jack and I decided to use the time to walk all over campus. We went to the football field to check out the stadium and there was a group of people using recreational marijuana. Jack and I walked by and they offered us a joint. Jack immediately said yes. I didn’t want to look like a chump, so I smoked some of the marijuana joint with Jack. I caught a bunch of times and I thought I was going to pee in my pants. I only smoked a small amount of the marijuana joint, but I started to feel high a few minutes later. By the time the San Francisco College advisor showed up for our meeting and campus tour, I was too high to participate in the activity.
I like to smoke a bowl in my apartment and then take a walk down to Cheesman Park
My hometown was small, but not tiny.
It was technically a “city” based on its population size, but it had a small town atmosphere.
My dad was recognized everywhere we went, especially by employees and shop keepers. Many of the people he went to highschool with are still living in the same area and have kids of their own now. My dad used cannabis back in the 1970s growing up in the northern midwest. Some of the cannabis came from over the border, while he had friends that also went overseas in boats and brought it back in literal bundles to roll into joints and smoke. Back then most of the weed was pollinated so it had lots of seeds. Nowadays cannabis products usually only sell unpollinated female plants, formerly called “sensimilla.” At least that’s how all of the cannabis flower jars come from the dispensaries here in Denver. It’s nice to smoke a bowl of dried flower buds in my apartment before taking a walk down Humboldt Street to get to Cheesman Park. I like to read a book on my phone while sitting at the Pavilion at Cheesman Park; and it’s even better when you’re under the influence of cannabis at the same time. I take longer walks when the weather permits, particularly in the summer season. There is a marijuana dispensary south of Little Cheesman that often has sales on cannabis concentrates like live rosin and wax. If I know they’re running a sale and it’s not the middle of the winter, I’ll plan a long walk down there on my normal strolls in the neighborhood. Otherwise I’ll drive my car down Williams Street to get there.
The statewide tax on recreational cannabis products in Colorado is 15%
I’ll never forget how I felt when I heard that Colorado might surpass California in becoming the first state in the country to have legal recreational cannabis.
Amendment 64 was passed by voters in 2012 and led to the opening of retail recreational cannabis sales in January of 2014.
By the time I had settled in Denver, I already had a Colorado Medical Marijuana card from living in Boulder. I moved to Denver to be closer to my family members that live in Aurora. I’m the only one in my family that actually has a medical marijuana card, so I’m often being pestered by brothers and sisters to get them products from the dispensaries around Glendale and Englewood so they can avoid the 15% state tax. I try to tell them to get marijuana cards, but that costs a lot of money. Although the card itself is only $25 each year, you have to see a cannabis physician and the prices vary across the board. I got a really good deal on a physician in the River North Art District who only charges $50 for checkups and recertifications. Other cannabis doctors in Denver charge upwards of $150 per visit. But I use a lot of marijuana throughout the month, between edibles like RSO, vapable products like flower buds and concentrates, and oil cartridges, I’m stopping at a Denver cannabis dispensary at least once a week. With a 15% tax on all statewide recreational cannabis sales, you can see why I’m ready and willing to pay for the medical marijuana card every year.
