no longer welcome Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 So I go through my bouts of insomnia like anyone else, I don't take medications, although will take some Tylenol pm's once in a while just when it's bad enough.On another subject, I don't smoke OG Tangiers too often, not really because of the buzz, well maybe, but it just knocks me out. I smoke Lucid at least 3 nights a week and Nakhla the others. I like the Lucid flavors, but feel that something is missing.The last 2 nights have been almost sleepless....so, I just grabbed myself by the nutsack and just opened Tangier's Nectarine, OG. it's acclimating now, it will only need an hour or so since I am local to Tangiers. Once these kids are in bed in an hour I will be preparing a great bowl, and hopefully asleep an hour after that.I know, I know, you guys who smoke OG all the time are laughing at me and calling a wuss right now, but I admit I can't smoke OG regularly but it will come in handy tonight I'm sure.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikemyusername Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 sounds like you have a damn handy sleep aid. chamomile shisha anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcane Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 go john go! get your snooze on!i found that after pretty much quitting cigarettes (i'm at about 1/2 a stick a day now)...my tolerance dropped a lot. i get a decent buzz from Nakhla and actually haven't tried smoking OG yet. i'm a bit scared, but gonna jump in head first once I get to San Diego.

no longer welcome Posted August 21, 2009 Author Share Posted August 21, 2009 well i've been smoking for a few minutes now, eric once told me the reason for a buzz is that i smoke too much too quickly, in not so many words, it was after i asked him how can he smoke during the day, pretty much most of the day, and not have it affect him like it does me, after all i smoke shisha every day too, his response was to watch how much he smokes, he takes maybe 1-2 puffs a minute, unlike me and lucid and everything else, it's like a constant puff away, so i will take it slow since it's still too early to sleep.

Arcane Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 nice...how's the Nectarine? I usually smoke some Nakhla DA when I get the craving for a bedtime bowl.also, you think you can make it down to San Diego and have a bowl of Tangiers with me when I get there?

Just tear a bag open and add. It does wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I just smoked my first cigar in 3 months and it tore me up. More buzz in a medium cigar than in all my 14 hour Tangiers days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mix_tape Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 The buzz factor is one of the reasons why I've stayed away from Tangiers but having had lucid the flavor is great so the OG must be even better with more flavors! When I did get Tangiers smoking right it was amazing but I had to take it slow or the buzz knocked me on my ass haha.John I hope you had a good smoke and got some sleep.

I crashed around 930 and stayed asleep til 630am, now i'm up bright and early with a great start to the day. This will have to be a weekly deal for me, I am thinking Sunday night so can start the week off right. I'd rather wake up earlier than normal tired and slowly get into my day than an hour late and be all amped up trying to catch up.The Nectarine was really great, the flavor was accurate and natural so I will be finishing this one.

redjako Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Lols, nice work, I suffer from insomnia as well, but OG wakes my ass up. I have meds, but hate taking them regularly..Actually hookah after 7pm (when I like to smoke) kinda wakes me up..the nicotine gets my mind working, which is what keeps me awake.Keep the thread updated, shitty luck would be YOU acclimate to OG, so...new tactic later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpimpitox Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Good stuff John! I smoke at nights usually before bed when I'm at home and it doesn't really knock me to sleep. I do feel more relaxed and tired but it takes an hour or 2 more before I get sleepy enough to pass out. Nectarine is an awesome flavor! I haven't had it in a long time I'm down to like 5 Tangier flavors I'm gonna have to order up before I go out of town next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1v3th3ad Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 glad that worked out for youa bowl of tangiers usually helps take the edge off the day enough for me to be able to catch some zzzs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikemyusername Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 what I don't understand is...nicotine raises blood pressure causing your heart to pump ad your vessels to restrict, never makes me tired, but i guess i'm different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
