One of my interests and self-taught skill sets is pharmacology. The effects, dispensation, elimination and structure of different medicinal compounds. It's quite amazing how medicines work on the body. Soma is the name brand of a compound known as a Carmabamate; its chemical name is Carisoprodol. The funny thing about Soma is, it has recreational potential comparable to Valium, Quaaludes or Vicodin, but aren't Scheduled at all.
Carisoprodol metabolizes, in vivo, into Meprobamate. Meprobamate, also known as Miltown or Equanil, was very highly prescribed in the 1950s-60s. It was one of the original "Mother's Little Helpers." It is still prescribed, though very rarely. You can die from too much Soma. Not only that, but from reading the literature, and from personal experience, I can tell you that Carisoprodol potentiates Opiates upwards of sevendfold. This stuff is legal, but pot is severely illegal? Silly Government. Don't get me wrong, I do dig Soma..especially with Opiates. But it's just backwards, you know?
I desperately need money.. It's hard to not consider illegal methods of procuring it. I've thought of everything from pharmacy-robberies to synthesizing crystal meth via the reduction of ephedrine using Hydro-iodic acid and red Phosphorus. But jail truly, truly sucks. And I don't want to go back there. At the same time, I DO need money to pay a lawyer, to keep me out of there.. Kinda wish I was still growing pot. Ha.
My 7 year old cousin stays with us half the week. She's in quite a mood right now, flipping out about her hair, and her doll's. Good thing I ate 4 Soma earlier, ne?
Dinner time - home made pasta salad with home grown orange grape tomatos, baked potatoes and BocaBurgers (no meat, it's a vegetable/bulgur product).
Ciao
