I have wasted my life.

The other day I couldn't even hold down water, for eight hours, thanks to a friend's Punch. Donkey punch it was, urgh. I felt like I'd succumbed to both ebola and cyber-neuro experiments by accident, bleurgh.

I feel I've wasted my money.
Again.

I should be in Edinburgh.
I should be in maternity, cooing over my baby niece.

My head appears to be made of early Baroque harpsichord music, played fast and out of tune.

Not too bad. Last night was our tenniversary, so we got pissed almost entirely on good champagne (plus a little vodka). This morning, a little muzzy-headedness, but far far better than usual.

Followed by more drinking of a less expensive variety but, fuck it, it's Pride today, it's Shame tonight, and there's some cracking Live8 music as a backdrop at the moment. I'm sating myself on no-holds-barred raw Diet Coke at the moment but there are more bottles of bubbly chillin' in the fridge. Postponing the miserable self recrimination till tomorrow.

It's not the physical effects of hungoverness that gives me a problem in these middle-aged days, it's the blues that accompany the post-alcohol down. Drinking champagne does help with that though. Beer is a killer for hangovers. I kid myself that spirits are less diabolic but, as tomorrow will no doubt tell, that's just crap.

I've recovered mostly with just a vague stomach complaint as if I have dined on a combo of bubblewrap and styrofoam last night rather than by estimation 5 too many doubles.

Ha and me complaining about my hangover how self involved. congratulations!

What do hangovers do? I'll tell you what they do. they make you look like this.
Then you get sunburn and build up for another, even worse, hangover.

nine weeks and four days since a sip of alcohol passed these quivering lips.

And you're still hungover? That must have been one big night out.

for me the worst is the fear - anyone else get that? Usually kicks off around 5/6am, and keeps you in its vindictive clutches until banished by those white witches of sleep and rehydration

I always try to get a big gatorade ready for when I wake up. Supposed to hydrate you faster and all that. ANyone have any weirdo tonics they use for a hangover?

Berocca. Make you piss bright orange, but there's nothing that works as well. Oh, and I got sunstroke as well as a hangover. Nice.

Sitting infront of the fridge, shoveling salad and orange juice down me in a vain attempt to postpone the vomiting

Jack Denfeld

13:03 / 03.07.05

You're just going to vomit orange/green now.

Mourne Kransky

13:09 / 03.07.05

Over the park for fish, chips and marrowfat peas at the local greasy spoon. Washed down with several pints of Diet Coke. Lavly. All sorted now.

Success! No Orange/Green vomit. Turns out all I needed was a horrendous poo.

I feel like someone shat in my skull. And it had bits in it. Pointy bits.

As to weirdo tonics, V8 is mine. Tomato juice sounds like the last thing you'd want to put on a sick stomach, but it's magic.

I feel only a little sick but can't shake an unwelcome sensation of impending doom/awfulness purely for the fact that I have no tangible memory of events after twelve and no matter how hard I try I cannot extract the memory of my journey home. And what I do remember makes me cringe at my irresponsibility.

i have developed an allergy to brewer's yeast

drank a bunch of maudites last night, not enough to enter the kingdom but enough to get plenty effed up

body dry, in pain, rash growing on my arm. i have to stop doing this to myself. no matter how much water i drink i cant rehydrate myself.

the only good thing is nobody else in the production department has bothered to show up today, and i am totally useless.

I've been hungover for about a week now. Hair of the dog has ruled my activities and made me feel like a fuzzy shell. All my energy is draining away and all my hope lies in the cup of tea in front of me. The wind i howling around my 7th floor room. Normally comforting this sound now gives me the heeby geebies. I need to stop drinking and staying up until 4 every night. I miss daylight.I miss warmth. Gah........!

I can't remember what emotion Anthony Perkins is conveying in this scene but taken out of context and viewed as a purely expressionistic picture: I feel a bit like that.

I am wasting and will continue to waste my life.

Twice.

Not hungover at the moment, but it's struck me that one of my greatest negative thoughts while hungover is not so much that I've wasted my own life (I usually take it as read by that point) but that I am actually providing a negative influence on everyone else's that comes into contact with me.

i think i must have swapped my brain for a hoard of angry bees. i presume they were sold to me, in my drunken state, as magic bees by some conniving bugger. there is possibly half a dead dog in my mouth as well.

still, considering the usual state my mind is in, i think i actually got the better end of the deal. i win!

on the subject of cures, i fool myself that a huge mug of cold sweet tea does the trick. but then thats because i usually make one before i pass out, and it's the only thing at hand when i awake, hardley able to do much more than shift one arm a few feet without spewing...
