500 WORDS, DAY 44: We’re All Addicted to Something

Yesterday I was writing about the topic of weed addiction. I know a lot of people would say weed isn’t even addictive, and I actually used to think the exact same thing when I started getting high on it, so I honestly don’t blame anyone who believes it.
