Working with a hangover Another poor life choice

Oh that was a rough morning. I'm honestly amazed I made it into work and toughed out the whole day.
Waking up at 6AM shivering, dizzy and still smelling and tasting beer is not a good way to start a work day.
This is all the fault of that woman. She's only 5 foot nothing and maybe a 100 pounds but she drinks like a fucking tank. Put me to shame and then helped walk my exhausted and drunken carcass back home at the prime hour of 10PM. If she wasn't so damn cute, she would terrify me.
The afternoon wasn't bad. Moving around in the sunshine with some lunch in belly while rototilling gravel playgrounds was the cure.

When I was a young Cougar, working with a hangover never seemed too serious but these days I find it impossible, it's an inevitable consequence of ageing I think.
Also Sim Sim the christian-fundamentalist panda is wrong: you don't need to stop drinking - in fact if you keep drinking these hangovers will cease to be a problem, so will family, friends and people who trust you.

there's usually a direct correlation between my malaz forum post frequency and my level of hangoveredness at work.
Today you will probably see only a few posts...but if Thursday goes the way I think it might, you could hear a lot more from me on Friday.
@Rodeo,
Good job though, if it was for a woman then power to ye. Keep the water to ye. Get pizza for lunch.

I remember a month or so ago I went drinking Thursday and had to meet at work at 6 the next morning. I got waaayy too drunk and of course got up late and had to run to the bus stop. Jumped down the steps in the building and hit the ground running. I got about 100 meters and just hurled. Like my body made such a spasm trying to expel my stomachs contest that it litterally stopped my momentum in its tracks. I sort of of backtracked spewing chunks and what not, for a couple of seconds that felt like an hour. I tried getting moving again and puked some more, had to go sit down on the front step of a cheese shop, which just made it so much worse. I never did make it to work that day.

I believe I may have given the most convincing "sick-call" ever as I was half crying, half shaking and trying to support myself on a toilet bowl while my stomach was making the exorsist impersonations...

Yes, and I do not understand why anyone would live in a building that houses such a place.

so when people get the urge to eat cheese they......... go to the cheese shop,
what a novel idea...
i prefer my cheese at wal-mart
edit:
@ Mezla, I also prefer my cheese to be made out of plastic...

Now I'm a fan of drinking - it's great fun, but drinking to excess like that is ridiculous to me. I could never deal with a hangover the next day.
Of course, my mindset comes from purposely getting trashed once - just so a friend of mine could assuage his curiosity over how much I could drink before I had too much. Somehow I found my way out of the bar, up some stairs, and to the car, but then spent 3 hours throwing up on the curb while my friend forced me to drink water.
I didn't have a hangover the next day, though.

I love when people get all righteous or confused about people getting wasted or "too drunk". Drinking is not an exact science and its not supposed to be something you think too much about.
When you get a few beers in board you start to loosen up and you have fun. A few more and you're ready to party. Now unless you're some freakish control freak you'll most of them time go from in full control to tipsy to drunk as a skunk faster than you think and usually without even noticing it.
When you've already had 8 pints of beer, you usually just want more and someone just ordered 8 shots of tequila. So shit, I'll order another 8 shots for the table, and chip in for the next bottle of what ever cheap, sweet tasting liquer that comes on the table. Soon you're having a drinking contest with two hot chicks who just sat down at the table and the next two hours is happy hour so you can't leave now and you better order 8 pitchers of beer so that we have enough beer for the rest of the night, etc. etc. etc.
I think most people who've never "let loose" in highschool or hung out in Uni bars don't really understand just how crazy and wet a night of fun can get.

meh
I'm a "control freak" as you say, Apt, but that probably has something to do with my education as a psyc major. for some reason alcohol rarely gets me "loose" in the mental sense, the only thing I usually feel is the actual physical sensation of losing a degree of control over my body movements. Which is somehting I instantly dislike.
but then again, I'm weird like that in that I also usualy recall at least 905 of things that happened last night...
I've worked after a night of drinking once.
We went campinng with a bunch of people from work, had a decent amount to drink, and went to bed round 3-4 AM. got up around 8 in the morning and had ot work a 9 hour shift from 10 to 7 then bus home.
I was tired as hell, but other than that, no real problems.

I'll admit that I'm more like Mentalist in that when I get drunk, I don't notice the loosening up so much as I do how I'm losing control of my own body - which I also don't like at all.
I never 'let loose' in high school or college, true, but I also dislike that lifestyle and never wanted to do it. When I did go to college parties, I drank enough to get tipsy and then quit - because I enjoy being tipsy and that's when I'm 'loosest'. When I start getting drunk I start hating the feeling of a loss of control of myself.
I also don't agree with the 'alcohol obligations' that people come up with after they've had a few to make having way too much more to drink alright, but that's another rant.

heh
I've gone the distance of the "once you're tipsy, you keep drinking" several times in my life--not really because of obligation, but mostly because at that point I simply stopped feeling effect of additional alcohol.
That is, untill I reached my "critical point"
last time that happened was on New Years. I felt like total crap the rest of the night and the entire day after.
Since then, I haven't gotten v"very drunk" once. Not because I've consciously decided not to, simplybecause i don't drink much--never have, even in Uni, and everytime I have drunk since, inever felt I really wanted to get completely wasted. Dunno, that's just me though.
