srwalter's Journal: Peeing in a cup

Just recovering from a long period with too much to do. I am recuperating by ignoring things I usually do, like writing in my journal.

Went in to prospective employer today for "medical exam," aka drug screening. That was a blast. I filled up their little cup and filled out some paper work and left. Apparently I'm allowed a 20ng/mL tolerance on THC. I don't know if that's a lot, but I won't need any unless somebody has been spicing up my brownies without my knowledge.

At the moment, I am avoiding doing my Mastering Physics, which is due Wednesday. I'm also avoiding studying for my CS test, which is tomorrow. Other things I'm avoiding: reading for honors, doing reaction papers for honors--I think that's it.

Hopefully things will be downhill from here, especially after Thanksgiving. Whoo, downhill!

Well, you didn't have any school brownies this weekend, so I wouldn't worry.

Well...

you said you are allowed 20ng/mL. The average adult has 5L of blood, so that's 100,000ng or 0.0001 grams. Pot contains about 5% THC on average, depending on the plant, so you'd have had to ingest 0.002g of pot. If you get 15 brownies out of a pan, then the baker would have had to put 0.03g in the mix. That's not a lot. I couldn't find any figures about second hand (or contact high) absorbtion rates, so if you've walked through a dorm hall filled with smoke... you may be at risk.

Can you tell I'm bored

Wow, I hadn't even thought about the dorm. Stupid college students. However, this is concentration in urine, not in blood, so I don't know how that's affected.

That's true... still you should be safe, unless your roommate is shotgunning you while you sleep. :-)

CS exam was a pisser
