I'm in your loft, checking out your ghostbusters.
It's high noon in Woolwich, London, and four dedicated psychonauts are preparing themselves for a nice lunch... of LSD. We're each taking 2 100 microgram hits at 1pm, and we've got ourselves holed up in my trip fortress in the loft of a converted Napoleonic munitions factory, with the phones unplugged and only this forum as our window to reality. The cast for today:

Goons:

Major Failure Male, 5'9", 14.5 stone, spirit guide: Al Swearengen


Resonance Male, 5'9", 11 stone, spirit guide: Doctor Zoidberg


Street_Hotdog Male, 6'6", 15.5 stone, spirit guide: Geodude


Non-Goon:

codename stoatzart Female, 5'8" , 9.5 stone, spirit guide: Deinocheirus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deinocheirus)

All four of us have done shrooms together twice and weed countless times, while resonance, hotdog and myself have a longer history of doing shrooms together. We spent last night smoking bowls and listening to various things, and we're just finishing rigging the place up for tripping before we drop the tabs and start watching David Attenborough's Planet Earth.

Street hotdog is hanging up a colossal image of ganesh in front of one of our big windows, Resonance is mooching around drinking juice and sorting the kitchen out, and Stoatzart is taking a shower.

Wish us luck guys; the three of us goons will be posting our thoughts and reflections throughout the next twelve hours or so, so join us at 1pm GMT for the crunch.

Poster: Resonance

Just another preliminary post here. Last night was quite a wild one. I drank two huge bottles of Nigerian lager, and being the lightweight that I am, woke up with a bit of sore head. I've got a bit of a sniffle too, but since I've seen that episode of House where Hugh Laurie drops LSD to cure a migraine I figure I'll be just fine.

Major Failure has a mild case of the runs, so you may be wise to anticipate a pants-making GBS threads extravaganza.

We've also got a Wii in the house. Plasma Pong is going to blow my mind, although I realise that playing games may be the last thing I want to do when we're knee deep in the mire.

We're a close-knit group, so it should be good times. We were snapping at each other this morning over absolutely nothing, but I put that down to the pre-trip jitters.

Soundgarden's on the jukebox right now. Things aren't looking so good... I'm looking California and feeling Minnesota. I'm British. Is Minnesota really that bad a place?

watching the "shallow seas " episode of planet earth. It's a good choice. Ganesh is starting to look relatively interesting.

Resonance:

Full-body tingles kicking in. Think we're all pretty much on the same page right now.

Just had to turn Planet Earth off because it started seeming a bit too violent.

Strapping ourselves in for what could be a bumpy ride. Tripping in the daylight is quite a novelty. Don't think I'd want to try playing the Wii right now.

The bathroom tiles were looking very strange a moment ago. Started seeing streaks of light shooting across the squares. Bodily functions felt weird too.

Listening to Porcupine Tree 'Trains'. Clichéd? Absolutely.

Euphoria kicking in. Watching the raging River Thames out of the window. Incredibly intense. The music is ripping me apart right now.

Seems like a more peaceful, gradual comeup than shrooms. Enjoying it very much. Think my peripheral vision is starting to get a little cheeky...

yeah, I think I'm definitely sideways now.

The music wire just came out of our laptop and it was like not being able to breathe for a minute - we all flapped until we had the pipe plugged back in!

This is remarkably odd, I have that quintessentially psychedelic feeling of being very "deeply within" something, as if there were a lot of thoughts looming around my immediate sphere of perception, queuing for my attention and clustering to observe my field of vision at the same time.

While I have been typing this post I would definitely say I had "come up",just shy of eighty five minutes into this adventure.

Resonance has just commented that he, too, has the "under the sea" feeling.

Yeah, definitely on acid now. That's rather wonderful.

The Ganesh wall hanging is proving to be a big hit. The other three are rocking out over there right now.

poo poo. Street hotdog just put some 3D glasses on me. That's different. Good to have trip companions, that's for sure.

Resonance: Well, they said they were off to fetch the snakes, but it's become painfully clear to Street Hotdog and I that they're just having sex. Stoatz is fetching major's snake, if you will.

Failure just said "Being on LSD from moment-to-moment is like shuffling a pack of cards, and every now and then you get the 'acid card,' but you're not sure when you have it. Or something like that.

As soon as I can get a handle on this trip I keep feeling like it dumps me back in to a different level.

major failure: this is like being a guest in my own loving chatshow. Wonderful.

The lights are out and the glowsticks are here, and this is one hell of a loving drug, let me tell you.

This is like a loving advert for acid.

I just stepped into the shower and what happened inside was one of the most perfect moments of my life. I've got this much to say, and this much room to say it in, and so I'll be content to say very little at all. I'll have it all in my head for the rest of my life anyway, thank God.
