I'm so hung over...

I and Pricegal have had a rough week, what with work and school and whatnot. So we decided to just waste this Friday and Saturday. Friday night, we had dinner with wine and watched a movie. Too much wine, too little movie. And too little dinner, probably. Anywho, I wake up at night with a serious case of bowel distress. Two hours later, after a couple of evacuations, I manage to sleep through the rest of the night. After we wake up, we stay in bed for a few hours, just watching TV. We get up, have breakfast, and then head for the bathtub. 90 minutes immersed in hot water together. That’ll relax you, mark my word. Still no traces of a hang-over.

And then it hits, like a ninja out of the shadows. Clearing away some breakfast remains, I get totally apathetic. I’m like a sleepwalker. I don’t even want to crash on the couch, I just want to disappear. I haven’t yet. Wish I could.

It’s now Saturday evening, Pricegal’s out dancing, and I’m trying to stay moderately awake. Straight Dope is helping… a little. If this post is a bit rambling and pointless, I apologize. I guess I’m fishing for sympathy. I haven’t been hung over in quite some time. Serves me right.

See ya on the other side of tonight.

Did you take any vitamin B? Any Berroca? How about replenish the water the alcohol drained from your system?

You have my sympathies. Cheap, nasty wine did that to me, once.

sorry dude. Last time I was hungover I used it as an excuse to stuff myself with greasy fries and fatty burgers. Didn’t do a damn bit of good, and sent me straight to the bathroom.
Water does help, so does OJ. But time is usually the best cure I guess

There are no cures. The alcohol always wins. With the evening ahead, I’ll probably be in a similar state in 15 hours.

It’s not just an exclamation and it works. Ingesting large amounts of ETOH messes up your blood sugar, and some protein will help you get back to feeling spiffy. Also, as my dear friend Icy says, get a lot of water into your system and let’s flush you out! :smiley:

Hydrate! :wink:

PS: Been there done that. Hope you feel better soon. :slight_smile:
