Fun with pills

You don’t need to spend a lot of money in illegal drugs of dubious procedence and contents. Just go to your doc, and for less than 5 euros, you can get pills to have some fun.

Last night I was very, very tired, so I took my sleeping pill earlier than usual, and I laid in the bed before the pill started to make effect. I left a dim light, so I could still see everything in my room, and I was still wearing my glasses. It was dark, but I could distinguish perfectly the book shelves, the books themselves, and all the stuffed animals that are just at the foot of my bed. In the way I was laying, I was looking directly at the top shelf, which has a row of books in the verge of falling from one of the sides, and three stuffed animals: a dog, a giant, funny looking frog, and a cat.

Usually, when the sleeping pill starts to make effect, I lose my ability to focus properly and I see double, what has caused much fun while playing Need For Speed Most Wanted when I had the PS2 a couple of weeks ago. However, last night something different happened. I was thinking in whatever I was thinking, when it seemed as if something in the book shelf moved. I totally freaked out, because before I realized what was happening, I really thought that the stuffed animals were slowly moving! They weren’t moving like standing up, and looking at me with fierce eyes, but somehow it reminded me to the hospital scene in Akira, when Tetsuo sees the three toys moving by themselves (a teddy bear, a stuffed rabbit and a little car), and then they transform into giant monsters bleeding a white liquid.

In fact it looked as if they moved a little and quite slowly, like turning the hand, stretching legs, raising head, etc. I could swear that the damn frog was raising its stare to look at the ceiling, while opening the arms a bit and rotating its damn hands. The dog seemed as if it was pushing the books below it with one of its legs, and the books looked as if they were getting more on the verge of actually falling. I was really expecting that the books would fall at any moment, when I realized that nothing was actually moving. It was just a side effect of the sleeping pill starting to do its job.

Nevertheless, I had like 15 minutes of fun looking at the books, the dog, the frog, and the cat, which then started to make strange gestures with its face (what reminded me of the giant baby in Solaris). Even when I knew that they weren’t moving for real, I couldn’t make them stop moving, no matter how hard I tried to focus my sight. I already experienced that anything is fun when the pill starts kicking (watch me driving in NFS while watching double, and how I laugh whenever I crash the two cars I see I’m controlling). Well, I had fun watching the things move slowly. And the pill wasn’t extasis, amphetamines, MDMA, peyote, DMT, STD or WTF. It’s just a normal (albeit a bit strong) sleeping pill. I think I’m going to repeat one of these days to see if the same happens. Fun!
