I heard that another state shut down its dispensaries, so I called mine and placed a double order that will cover me for the next six weeks or so.

When I asked if they'd heard anything about shutdowns happening here, they said San Francisco had closed its dispensaries briefly, but soon reopened them (presumably after vociferous public outcry) and they were declared an "essential business."

Yup... California definitely has its priorities straight!
