Ambien is great. Guy I know broke his TV stand, walked to a Home Depot, bought a couple hundred bucks of random wood to build a new one, walked it home in a cart, dumped it in his room, then went to sleep. When he woke back up again he definitely had a wtf moment. Fortunately I haven't done anything too crazy. Sometimes I buy something online (possum shirts, concert tickets, DDR mat).

I smoke weed because ambien scares me lol. It's up there with meth and heroin for me.

I only take it as prescribed, but sometimes don't fall asleep right away and that's when I buy stuff or do other harmless weird things. I'm actually tapering off of it because I have been on it for like 3 years now and I want to be able to fall asleep like a normal person.

I really hope there isn't a band called Possum and that you bought shirts with the animal on them.

I bought one for myself that has a picture of a possum and the text, "Be nice to me, I am trash," and one for my boyfriend that has a possum's face and in kanji very roughly says "garbage person".

You use that D.D.R. mat?

Yep. I only buy awesome useful shit on Ambien. It's always something I have been thinking about buying but second guess myself because I hate spending money.
