Merry Christmas, I’m _so_ hungover. Now for my go to hangover food: spaghetti noodles with garlic powder and parmesan cheese. ( No sauce ) Ho ho ho! ---

I like spaghetti without sauce too (and with parmesan cheese.) ---

My friend and I went through two and a half bottles of wine last night. She’s not doing too well today. I’m mostly ok. I think I’ll pop a Tylenol and go on with life. -D/a ---

I’m so thankful I don’t get hangovers. I totally should be…I noticed the bottle of Barcardi is more than half empty. I’m the only one who drinks rum. I love spaghetti with just olive oil and Parmesan on it. ---

> [@Lochdale](#): > > Not bad but really, you shouldn’t leave a bottle open. Have to finish that off! We corrected an old mistake..already had a half bottle of white in the fridge from a previous dinner party with my parents. Um..you did mean the wine, not the Tylenol, right? -D/a ---

Oh god, you too? I woke up this morning and screamed to myself “_What the fuck kind of Christmas is this_?!” ---

I didn’t drink too much last night, but I had way too much “Christmas Cheer” on Christmas Eve. I actually got up around 4 AM to throw up, though I don’t think it was strictly because of the booze…mostly because I know my body enough to know the whens and whys of my alcohol-induced vomiting, and this didn’t feel like that. It felt more like just plain old “ugh ,ate something my stomach disagrees with”-style vomiting, so I’m putting half the blame on some of the weird desserts my roommate’s GF made that I ate (one in particular was kind of like a cheese danish…but the cheese didn’t taste like a dessert-y cheese, and it had some weird almond sauce…though with the vomiting maybe it was cyanide and she’s trying to kill me and my roommate! :eek:) The booze does get the other half of the blame for probably exasperating the problem, though. I don’t think either on it’s own would have caused it, but both together was a recipe for disaster.
