Welcome to "High" Functioning — the unfiltered audio diary of a 31-year-old wife, cat mom of two, and certified pothead just trying to make it through life one random thought at a time. Whether I'm overthinking the universe, ranting about daily chaos, or deep-diving into why my cats are probably judging me, this is your cozy corner for high thoughts and functional living. Light one up, chill out, and let's vibe through the weird, the funny, and the surprisingly profound moments of day-to-day life.
Episode 11. Questionable Decisions, New Pets, Theater Kids, + WEED!
In this episode, my older sister and I reflect on our bold decision to get new pets and pretend we know what we’re doing. We also dip back into our chaotic theater kid pasts, laugh too hard, and get a little too high to stay on topic. It’s messy, funny, nostalgic — and undeniably us.

Episode 10. Dad Jokes, Too Many Tokes, The Best for Last + WEED!
Melissa and Jonny get higher than their expectations for adulting as they battle to tell the ultimate dad joke without choking on laughter — or smoke. From stoner philosophy to uncontrollable giggle fits, this episode is a gloriously dumb celebration of love, weed, and the art of not taking life too seriously.

Episode 9. Overwhelmed, Over It, Over the Hill + WEED!
Melissa dives into the chaos of adulting while high — juggling home renovations, chores, and the betrayal of her aging body — all with her cats as judgmental witnesses. Between weed-fueled wisdom and laugh-out-loud rants, she ends up redefining Thanksgiving as a solo celebration of peace, munchies, and doing whatever the hell she wants.

Episode 6. Married, Baked, Autumnal TP, + WEED!
Join me and my husband Jonny for a baked and barely functional deep dive into marriage, fall chaos, and the mystery of the autumnal TP (yes, it’s exactly as weird as it sounds). 🍂💨 We’re high, hilarious, and roasting everything from pumpkin spice overloads to each other. Cozy, chaotic, and full of weed-fueled laughter — it’s marriage in its most unfiltered form. ❤️
⚠️ Listener discretion advised: Strong language, weed talk, and excessive pumpkin spice opinions ahead.

Episode 5. WEED, "high" nice to meet yah, WEED + more WEED!
We talk weed origins, high mishaps, and how she swears she’s never been stressed since discovering “a little indica and a lot of snacks.” Expect weed-fueled tangents, giggle fits, and way too much honesty about what really goes down at family gatherings.
So grab your bong, your favorite munchies, and settle in — it’s family bonding at its finest: slow, smoky, and slightly inappropriate. 🌿💨
Join me as I celebrate turning 31 with weed-fueled tangents about creaky knees, haunted house hangovers, and why sexy Halloween costumes hit different in your 30s. 🎃 From pumpkin patches and corn maze disasters to apple-picking workouts no one asked for, I’m diving into all the autumn chaos—with plenty of laughs, nostalgia, and joints along the way. 🍂💨
Join me as I get happily ripped, hit the bong, and rant about the dreaded yet exciting chaos of vacation prep. I’ll spill my hopes that this trip will top all the past disasters, share some laughs about family bonding, and brace for that classic mix of good ol’ fashioned family chaos—served, of course, with a side of joints and giggles.
