How to survive a rainy day

Use your washes sensibly

Save them! for a rainy day

Rainy days are the fear of every junkie. A rainy day is a day when you just can't score. Whether because you have no money or you can't find your dealer, you're just shit outta luck. In a few hours you're going to start getting sick with early stages of withdrawal.

However, the good news is that with a little planning and self-control, you won't have to worry about facing a couple rainy days.

Most of the time, when cooking up morphine, we do our first fix and then we cook up the wash (bits that are left over in the spoon) and do another little hit - right away or a little while later. Sometimes we feel the wash, sometimes not. But really, it doesn't add much buzz to the first full hit.

We can put our washes to better use if we save them for a sunny day. Believe me, once they save you from getting sick, you'll be happy (and relieved) that you saved them.

Example

Let's say you've just cooked up a 100 mg MS Contin (see cooking instructions) and done that hit. Of course, there's something left in your spoon. But how much is really in that wash?

Even if you cooked up that pill really well, the chances are you've only gotten about 4/5 (or about 80 mg) into your fit for that first hit. So that means there's likely a 20 mg wash left in the spoon.

Now if you cook up that remaining 20 mg wash what would it really add to your first hit? Do you think you'd feel it? Probably not. So, it basically goes wasted if you shoot it up right away. Sure, it addes a bit of longevity to your first hit, but that's about it.

On the other hand, if you save it for a rainy day it will definitely make a big difference to your well-being. It will definitely save you from a lot of suffering when there's no other dope available.

Think about it. If you save just 5 washes at 20 mg each, you've got yourself a whole 100 mgs. That's like another full pill. And that's just what you need on that rainy day when you just can't score.

Now if you're really wired and you're fixing up 3 to 5 times per day, then those saved washes can add up pretty fast. Let's say you save 4 washes every day. At the end of a week you've got yourself 28 washes. At 20 mgs per wash, that's damn near 6 whole MS Contins you've got saved away.

How to use your saved washes

Frist off, don't save up your cottons. You're just asking for trouble. Saved cottons, even if in the freezer, are exposed to the air and are bacteria-breeding grounds. What you want to save instead is your entire wash.

Cook up your wash. After you cook up your wash, draw it up into a syringe like normal. But instead of doing it right away, put the syringe into a plastic bag and put the bag into your fridge.

Next time you cook up another wash, add it to the plastic bag. You'll be amazed at how quickly the bag will start filling up.

Then the next times comes a rainy day, all you need to do is go to your fridge and you'll be okay.

But come that rainy day, you aren't going to shoot up your saved washes. You're going to drink them. After all, you aren't using them to get high, and they just aren't healthy over-time to put into your viens. You're just drinking them to get through your rainy day.

So what you do is squirt your needed dose into a small cup and add some good cold water. If you need an 80mg dose, then choose 4 wash needles. If you've been shooting up one grey per hit (100 mgs) then you'll want to put 5 washes into the cup. Remember, we're estimating each wash is about 20 mgs. If you've been doing a grey and a half, then you'll want 7 or 8 washes squirted into the cup.

Once you've got your dose in your cup, just add enough cold water so that you can down the entire concoction in one small gulp because it tastes mighty yucky. Gulp down the whole thing in one swallow and try to avoid it touching your tongue. Now add some more water, rinse it around, and gulp it down again. And then, just to be on the safe side, add more water and gulp down again. In this way you'll get everything (all that precious life-saving morphine).



Drink heartedly and you'll be good to go for another six hours easy, even 12 if need be. If you manage to score during that time, then so much the better. But if not, then all you gotta do is drink another rainy day dose and you'll make it through ok.
