Laughing Through Midlife with Cannabis, Chaos & Courage | She Was Tall, She Was High

📝 EPISODE SUMMARY 

In this episode, Queenie & TT laugh their way through the disorienting reality of midlife, where plans shift, routines unravel, and certainty feels increasingly optional. From household disruption and tech hiccups to travel prep, lingering colds, and the low-grade exhaustion that sneaks in when everything feels slightly off, this conversation captures midlife exactly as it shows up — messy, funny, and real.

Cannabis threads through the episode as both ritual and reset. The hosts talk candidly about what they’re using, why clarity matters more than intensity, and how different forms of cannabis support slowing down rather than checking out. TT also breaks down the confusing and often misunderstood realities of cannabis and driving laws, why impairment testing is still deeply flawed, and why “legal” doesn’t always mean “safe.”

As always, the episode wanders joyfully into word nerdery, cultural nostalgia, trivia tangents, and another round of Was Cannabis Involved or Is This Just Kaka? — including a truly unforgettable story involving wildlife and weed.

The episode lands with a thoughtful Fuck-It List moment: letting go of long-held “someday” expectations that no longer bring joy. Some dreams don’t need to be completed — they just need to be released.

There’s no guarantees. So maybe the point isn’t doing everything — it’s choosing what actually matters.

speaker-1 (00:32.898)
don't know why, but I'm gonna try this one more time. We're gonna clap.

speaker-1 (00:40.846)
One. Okay. I don't know. Okay. So, so you're okay now. Yeah. You just were a little like, you know, well, it could, can't tell if you clapped at the same time that I did. seem to be behind me again. don't. Yeah. To me, we were right together. Okay. So maybe it's just, we're a little laggy. We got, we got snow going on here. Who knows.

We have snow too. And maybe Riverside's doing its magic behind the scenes. You know how it like turns the words around and things like that. That kind of thing. Yeah. Things like that. Things like that. I know. I feel like so discombobulated. I know. I don't even know what to say. I don't even remember what And because, you know, now I'm doing everything in my bedroom, it's like... Oh my gosh. Like... Yeah. I am so disoriented.

Like, wasn't I just sitting here and wasn't, God. So it's amazing. You don't really realize how much you use your kitchen. my goodness. Constantly all day long. It's nonstop. Nonstop. It is definitely the heart of the home. It sure is. Yeah. Yeah. Isn't that funny? How like you just, you don't even realize. Yeah. You don't realize how much you use your kitchen, whether you cook or not.

It's just wow. So we're going through a little of that right now. It's only been a few days. It's okay. It's okay. I telling myself it's okay. It's okay. Just like I keep telling the dogs. It's okay. It's okay. I don't know if they believe me anymore, but we keep trying. I hosted Thanksgiving when my kitchen wasn't done yet. We had no sink. We had no sink and no stove. So we had microwave and we had

You know, the bathroom was sitting. You make do, you do what you have to do. Well, we ended up ordering the turkey from a grocery store and most of the fixings. I made a few things, but yeah, in the microwave. Anyway, yeah, cleanup was fun. Anywho. Wow. Wow. Well, good morning, TT. I should say hello. I should make this time neutral. That's right. Let's try to it. Because after all, we have people.

speaker-1 (02:54.86)
Listening to us from all over the world. I should just say greetings TT or hello TT or hi there. Hello, creamy. Hello. Hello. Hello. So what's new in your world today? Nothing. Nothing is new. I slept and I woke up. That's about it. That's about it. I did wake up early. I woke up at about 4 30 and then I looked at my phone and I

saw that there was a response to something I posted on Facebook about our class reunion. So then I felt compelled to have to try and go and troubleshoot because someone was having an issue with the website and payments. Anyway, I did that this morning. So that was a little out of the ordinary. So you were, wow, super productive today already. know, I'm glad that I got up early because

I need to get to bed early tonight because our flight tomorrow is at 5 a.m. So we have to get to the airport. A little before the airport. International flight? Yeah. was going to say 3.30. Yeah. Well, this is not, it's to Atlanta. It's not a direct international flight, but yeah. So I think we go through customs in Atlanta. Right? Nifty. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Well, yeah, it's exciting times. Yeah. Yeah. So how about you? What have you done in the last eight hours?

This

speaker-1 (04:19.018)
for whatever it's well let me tell you I had I really did have a fun a fun period in there because last night I told you if I'm watching the Dick Van Dyke show and so last night I didn't feel like Dick Van Dyke so I was just trolling around and I came upon the match game. game. When we were talking about Jean Rayburn. we were talking about Jean Rayburn. Right so I

went on Match Game 73. Okay. So which would have been 1973. We were in high school, just in high school. Just in high It was our first first year at the high school. So it was hysterical. was so interesting just to watch it. And it was it really was it was fascinating. So I just paid attention to one particular question.

Was there a lot of like cultural references from that time? Or was it just- as many as you would have thought. Like not, this was the height of Watergate and I did not, there were, you know, there were no references. Okay. Discernable references in the episodes I watched. Okay. So some of the people that were on these episodes with this particular episode was Bert Convy, Charles Nelson Riley. geez. He was on- JP Morgan.

Wow. Morgan. The JP Morgan? Well, the woman, she was a woman. She was like a hippie. Who was, let's see, then we had, who was it? Let's see, who was under Bert Convy? Then Dawson, Richard Dawson. Richard Dawson. Dickie Dawson. Brit, Brit, Summers, Brett Summers. yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Who was married to Jack Klugman. Okay. Yeah. So anybody younger than us really?

This means nothing to them. These names mean actually nothing. But I thought this particular, if you know the premise of the match game, the contestants, the match, the celebrities have to match with the contestant. Pretty simple. So this cracked me up. The question was, and listen to it. have to listen to it. As you listen to it, you'll think, things will pop into your head, right? So it was Mary has never seen John's blank. Okay. So.

speaker-1 (06:39.978)
I know what popped into my, my mind immediately. Okay. So here are from 1973. Okay. These are the responses. So the contestant, her response was secretary. Okay. That didn't even enter my mind. Please. We're so off the, so Bert Convy said wife. JP Morgan said birthmark, wink, wink. Charles Nelson Riley said, I almost wrote it.

And then he showed that he had written dog, but summer said, Mary has never seen John's apartment. She said, I'm going to pretend to be Betty white. Richard Dawson said, belly button. And Betty white said office. Now I'm going to say one, two, three, and then you and I at the same time, we'll, we'll say what came to our minds. Okay. One, two, three.

Penis. Penis. Not a big surprise. There you go. See what a difference 50 some odd years make? Well, the thing is, I'm sure that popped into people's heads, but they weren't about to say it did. Yeah, but they... I'm sure. Like now you would get 15 different words for that nomenclature. Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. But it just cracked me up. I know. Just Really significant change.

Yeah, it was was cracking right up secretary. Secretary has never seen his secretary. My god and the clothing. The clothing alone is worth yes dialing in. So that amused me. It's so much so much. I do like it just like in the clothes. And then Dick Van Dyke, I got to see Victor Moen as a special guest star. Really? Victor Moen. This is why you want me on your your trivia team.

That's right. You are very good at trivia. When we used to play Trivial Pursuit back in the eighties, you were like the person you wanted on the team. Because it's useless information. You've got so much volumes of But it is useful at times. know, sometimes things boil up. Great for playing games, yeah. And blurting out, you know, ridiculous things at, you know, ridiculous times.

speaker-1 (09:04.888)
So that really was, I thought that was a lot of fun as a little step back in time and just what contrast between just mores and norms, the clothing, just the whole, it just, it was hysterical, absolutely hysterical. The women that came on, I'm a housewife, housewife and someday I might go back to school. So interesting.

Interesting. But yes, I enjoyed that thoroughly. I, I. Our Closet Disco Queen podcast deals with legal adult cannabis use and is intended for entertainment purposes only for those 21 and older.

you

speaker-1 (09:52.362)
I should make an announcement. I think I was premature in declaring what a coulda shoulda dead. Really? Did you get some good info? I was able to do some deeper digging and I have some additional... Scenarios? to work with. Yeah, so we will be able to continue with that game, so stay tuned for that later. Good.

Apologies. I felt badly because I know you insisted that the only reason I was doing it is because you were one two weeks in a row. And I certainly didn't want to be accused of that. So I thought, no, I will dig deeper. Damn it. So thank you for digging. You better be ready because these are to be ready. These are primo. Primo. All right.

What the latest but

speaker-1 (11:30.504)
So Titi, do you have a story for us this week? I do! I'm going to work Well, whoops, should back up. What's real in it? What have we consumed today, right? Oops, forgot about that one! The random window! Forget about, don't forget about, I forgot.

Morning started my routine coffee's nice but some good old green gummy bears dancing brownies in a tray my but tenders asking what you had today what have you consumed today a cookie a gummy or a potent j did you basically dive it or roll your own way tell me what cannabis you consumed today

So

speaker-1 (12:26.968)
So Titi, what have you consumed today? Well, I start my morning with a cup of tea and this morning I added... Titi for tea for Good vibes. Just bring it back a little bit. Fast acting syrup. Is that visible? Yes. Okay. That is from the Cape of Cod, if I recall. It is. is. Last week we were talking about how, you know...

we kind of get stuck in a rut and I don't think I've had any, well, I've had drinks and gummies. That's pretty much what I do, but I was like, oh, I'm gonna try the drops. Cause I forget I have them. so, And you did, you found that you liked the tincture. When you ate I've never had it in a hot beverage before. So that was interesting. I I didn't taste it. It didn't affect the flavor of the tea. Was it a fruity tea?

It was a regular chai. was a vanilla chai. Yeah. So spicy, no, and robust. and I put milk and sugar in it. So it's like dessert. Okay. you know, cake or dessert with some syrup. had syrup in your dessert and the syrup it was. Yeah. And now we've got a nice, nice little buzz on. like this stuff. Little buzz, little busy. Well, since, I have not left the home.

and has barely left my room. How's the rest? I'm prepping for something. Very small life. Really with, I don't even have a hot plate up here. I shouldn't complain. Our refrigerator is still, it's the only thing left in the kitchen. Oh, well at least you So that's a blessing. Right. It's not in the garage yet. So it's still within reach, but. That's good. Good God. It's such a disruption. But anywho.

I'm still smoking, wowie, wowie, baby. Yeah. Me likey. Yeah. Yeah. I like it. It's one of those OG. It's an OG strength. Yeah. We like it a lot. So cool. And revert with this particular vendor, the pre-ground cannabis. It's also, it's got, it's enhanced with some keef. So it's considered, little more potent. Enhanced.

speaker-1 (14:50.286)
Yeah. So yeah. All right. So, uh, TT, do you have a story for us this week? Let's try that again. I do. Oh boy. I have a story and we're going to harken back to a couple of weeks ago when we talked about DUIs and cannabis. And I dug a little deeper because there were a couple of questions about how did they even test you? Right. Right. So I'm going to just go through a little bit of that right now. There is actually no.

reliable tests, field sobriety test. There are some, they're not, they have not been proven to be entirely accurate. but if you, you can get stopped and because of, if you're driving erratically and if that happens, then they can do a, a field sobriety test of, know, can you walk a straight line? Can you much like a- Is that walking a straight For alcohol. Was that walking a straight line?

Well, what I was just doing. That's well, maybe you're lagged a little bit, you know, walking a straight line. You're right. I was thinking of doing this and then I thought of

I'm doing I you to walk a straight line and that's you did. You might have a little problem. That's that might be pointing that out. I might seem to be impaired. However, anyone who knows me would not would not have followed direction. Even my own. Okay. So what are some of the other field sobriety tests that they might well they're relying on? Well, what happens often happens is that the the

Tests are usually done, the saliva or urine tests are done after people get taken into the station. But those are the tests that can detect THC many, many hours, even days after ingestions. No correlation there between whether people were impaired or not.

speaker-1 (16:57.346)
That's, that's where the issue is. It's like, can smoke a joint on Saturday. And if you get pulled over on Tuesday, the THC could still be in your system. And you could have just been, you know, I don't know, spacing out a little or whatever, trying to get something out of your purse. And if you swerved or, and that would be a reason it's driving erratically for them to be concerned about your driving. Right. So, you could then get arrested for driving impaired because.

Your test came back from a joint you had three days ago. Okay. And it's out of your system at that point. mean, the psychoactive elements have, dissipated, but it's still in your bloodstream. THC. So you're not impaired, but it's still showing up. So, which is different than alcohol. So the other thing is sometimes they bring people into the station and they don't get around to testing them until a couple hours later.

you

speaker-1 (17:56.322)
And so that's inaccurate too, I'm kind of in the other direction, right? So it's really a combination of things and it's different all over the place from one law enforcement group to another.

So how is it that people have been able to be prosecuted for driving while impaired? good question. There's cannabis unless they're pulled over and you you open the window and cloud of smoke goes, you know, puffing out. How is this happening? I'm just curious. Well, I'm certainly not advocating for driving while impaired. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, not at all. Not at all. We're just saying, I'm just curious. Like how

how one would be screened? Well, if, you know, they would be screened in the field by doing the field sobriety tests that you do for drinking, right? That we talked about. And then some organizations do use, there's something, a spit test you can do out in the field or out, you know, on the road. Right. But that is not very, it's not been scientifically proven to be accurate. So some places are using it and they're using it like

Okay, this is, you know, this is the bottom line here when they're not necessarily accurate. And who would know to question the accuracy of such a thing? Right. Well, especially with all this unknown, you know, it just seems like we don't know. so much. Right. Yeah. We don't know. There's no research that's been done about, you know, correlation with impairment and different.

things you need to do to be able to drive well. And there's just, I'm hoping with the change in scheduling that there will be some more research about that. And hopefully we can come up with the way people can get arrested is that there are laws on the book that have this sort of arbitrary, you know, like with, um, with alcohol, have to blow a certain number on the correct. Well, they've, they've come up with a number of whatever grams of

speaker-1 (20:03.092)
of THC that can be present in both blood and saliva. And that number, you know, I'm not even sure where that number came from, but it's kind of arbitrary. Wow. yeah, so that's a lot of states have that law in the books. So it's important to know kind of what, you know, what, the punishments are, where you live, even where you're driving through on a regular basis and just be sure that you don't drive erratically. guess that would be the only reason really.

to stop someone. Or impaired, obviously. Like, don't do it. Yeah. or, yeah. Yeah. Hmm. Something else to an eye on. Yeah. I mean, so it just doesn't, I understand, but the challenge is there's no way to detect accurately and pinpoint when someone consumed and how much. Right. Right. When? Right. How much of the psychoactive properties of THC. May remain.

Right. Remain after however many hours, you know, you know, you feel high for X amount of time. Like with me, the gummies last a lot longer, you know, when you take a hit, get high fast and it's, but it's over faster. There's been no scientific evidence about how long different strains, different concentrations, right. Right. Delivery cannabinoids, terpenes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. About how.

our bodies, and we can say, well, I wasn't high anymore. You can tell when you're not high anymore, right? mean, it's like, it just goes away, sort of slowly fades away, and then it's gone. And it's like, okay, so you know that that happens, and it happens a lot quicker than, you know, three weeks or whatever, wherever the amount is where your THC can remain in your system. And that varies from- Oh, I think it's longer than three weeks. I think you're right. I think it could be even I think it is. Yeah.

I think depending on the person. anyway, anyway, that's that. Well, something else. Well, more, more. Well, thank you, TT. That was very helpful. And hopefully as, research progresses and you know, we'll have more to de-stigmatize more, we'll have more information about making more information.

It's the segment where your logic shines Just as I was in a little off time Could've done this, could've done this

speaker-1 (23:50.956)
Alright. Okay. Titi, are you ready to resume playing everybody's favorite game? Kura Shura Wura? Or is it kaka with a K? Was cannabis involved in these miscellaneous situations, incidents, or is it pure kaka? I will determine that. Hopefully, accurately. Well, yes, you've got

two weeks behind you of just roaring success, 100 % both weeks. And I know you were fearful that I was seeking retribution, but no, I am not like our president. So I did some deep, deep, deep research and was able to identify some additional material. So I'm very appreciative of that. I can tell. This is a game. Yes. Yes. So I've heard. So you've mentioned. I thought, no, I will continue to look. So, all righty.

Let's see here. Hmm. I just saw the freaking thing. God bless America. swear to God. Oh, here we go. Yeah. I swear to God. I should have the mouse taken from me. Alrighty. The first situation is, you know what? think we did this one now that I read it. not going to say it. Forget you, forgot you. In Oregon, there was a famous deer who was known. Deer. D-E-E-R. Like a Bambi. Okay. Like a Bambi.

Little older though, far and wide locally as Sugar Bob because he consistently ate buds at a medical facility, grow site. Sugar Bob. I like that. Sugar Bob. Sugar Bob. thought it was Sugar Yes. So there's a weed eating deer nibbling away at medical marijuana at a grow site. Maybe a Bob tail deer, but he is widely known.

be nibbling away at cannabis, I wonder what his ailment is. I'm gonna say that's true. Titi believes that this this is true. No, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,

speaker-1 (26:14.328)
Deer can't get in the hot house. So if it's summer, if they're outdoors in the summer, then it could be true. See now I'm confused. the issue is, is it planted outside or inside? Cause that would give me the answer. And it could be happening just in the summer. Was it in the summer? Unfortunately, I do not have that level of extensive information, that extensive level of information I should say. Okay. Well.

then I'm gonna say, I'm gonna, okay, I'm gonna go back to it's true, because it could happen in the summer. Okay, Titi believes that there is truly a deer named Sugar Bob, very famously named Sugar Bob, who eats buds at a local medical grow site and it become famous because of this. And so you're okay, right? This is your final answer. I do believe there's a Bob, yeah.

She believes there's a Bob. Well, you're right.

There is a Bob. You're correct. Yes. You should always go with your first instinct. You talk yourself out of things. So yes, in 2015 in Applegate, Oregon, this deer became viral locally, Sugar Bob. And he was also known for napping after eating his buds. I can relate to that. Sugar Bob. Sugar Bob strikes and was Oregon, Colorado. don't know why I thought Oregon. Oregon.

Urgun, Urgun, Urgun. Alrighty, so now are you ready for the second situation? I am. In which you have to determine if it's really truly Maita Kodashoda or if it's Kaká. Let's see. I'm ready. Ready to spot the Kaká. Let's see here. The next situation, Maple Wana. Confusion peaked.

speaker-1 (28:13.858)
when a school-wide drug search was triggered by a student's collection of serrated Japanese maple leaves. Did that really happen? Or is that caca? And this would have been in Canada. in Canada. Maple wanna quotes. Confusion peaked when a school-wide drug search was triggered.

by a student's collection of serrated Japanese maple leaves. Did this happen? Was there mayhem, marijuana mayhem in our neighbor to the north? I don't think so. I would think they would recognize a maple leaf. It is their national leaf. It's on their flag. Did I mention it was a Japanese maple leaf? Oh, those have little skinny. Oh, yeah, those have little skinny maple leaves. Yeah, you're right. Yeah, you're right. Let me think a minute.

They do when they're all curled up. But Japanese maples are sort of a, well, they're sort of a purplish color. So it wouldn't be like they were dried up green, but some weed. Well, no, the leaves are all green. Even if the buds are purplish, the leaves are still green. So, and Japanese maple leaves are not green. So I'm going to say caca. Titi believes that this is nothing but pure caca, correct? And that's your final answer.

That is my final answer. Your final answer is the correct answer.

speaker-1 (29:47.118)
That is kaka. Yes, oh my goodness, we're on a roll. Three clean sweeps. That was a hard one. In a row. These were both hard ones. I vacillated. But you persisted. I got it. Very good, very good. Congratulations. So what does it say about that? Oh, it was kaka, so there's no story. It was kaka. Never mind. So you can say anything you want. It was just pure kaka. Didn't happen. No way. But.

As you said, those leaves are a little on the rigid, the little rickety side there, sharp. Yeah. Sharpish. And I think you really have to be quite naive, but hey, you never know. You know, if someone described it to you, know, plant with raggedy leaves, jagged leaves, blah, blah. Who knows? Well, congratulations, T.T. Thank you. Well, I'm excited that we didn't have to, you know,

move on from this lovely game because it's a fun game. It's a fun game. So, well, it's so are you. That's the thing. That's fun. It is. I'm sorry. It's okay. I had to itch my ear. Menopause, know, itchy ears. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It happens when I wear these. get it's like, ah, that's weird. No, it's a symptom of menopause. It's, I guess it's very common itchy ears. So hear that ladies.

But I don't have anything, any advice to shoulder issues and itchy ears. So I think the itchy ears has to do with moisture, lack of moisture in your skin, system. I mean, my God, everything's drying out everything. So, but yeah, those keep turning and turning and turning. Yeah. We've got plenty of lubrication coming out of your nose.

Eww. Eww. Eww. Eww.

you

Alrighty, so it's time for this week's bucket list. Boy oh boy. All right. Did someone share a good one with me? This one's a good one. Good, good, good. This person for the longest time was determined to learn French someday. It was one of those things she just always wanted to do. Her really lifelong goal. She finally said, I'm abandoning.

my definitely someday goals because right now, this point in my life, they're just bringing me stress. So I'm putting that to the side, said this person. No, there's no definite. We're giving up that definite goals. someday. Oh yeah. I can see how that would be that you feel like I never get anything accomplished or you know, whatever. Right. This is something I've always wanted to do. Why don't I find time to do it? And I never did it and da da da. Right. No, yeah.

speaker-1 (33:48.066)
Why? Why? reason to beat yourself up, right? Burdensome enough anyway, you know, like true. That's true. Your own burdens. And maybe if you remove that expectation, that heavy expectation of doing this, you never know. You may encounter an opportunity in which you're able to be exposed to the French language, maybe begin to learn speaking conversationally. don't know. But if you're

So if you're stressed and worried about it, you kind of constrict and you don't necessarily. They're open. Opportunities out there. Yeah. Correct. You think you're thinking very linearly. Yeah. You know, I have to take a class to learn French. There are many ways now to learn French. do this. Right. I must do this to do this to and to be okay with myself. I must do this. Right. So correct. I must. And you can't change your mind. Increase my bust.
