i need a hangover icon but this will have to do

I SURVIVED THE SHOW INTACT AND IT WAS SUPER INCREDIBLE, OH MY GOD, EVERYTHING IS AMAZING FOREVER, I AM SORRY THAT I DID NOT POST TO TELL Y'ALL I WAS ALIVE LAST NIGHT, I WAS EXCITABLE AND DRUNK.

However, now I am hungover like a motherfucker and no mistake. *goes back to bed*

I HAVE BROUGHT DOWN THE CURSE. ME & VODKA, TOGETHER. POSSIBLY I SHOULD WRITE THE KENNEDYS AND OFFER SOME TIPS?

HOORAH! EVERYONE LIVED!

Sounds like a happy ending. Except for the hungover bit. Sorry, tactless of me.

VITAMIN B. Here we call it "Berocca". Just get some fast acting B vits in and pretend there will be a less painful tomorrow. Stay somewhere dark and warm. But you knew that.

Oh man, I went with plan "water + Advil + greasy food," which, while admittedly not classy, worked wonders :D Thanks!

Sounds like you had a fantastic time...btw - what WAS the name of the artist you went to see? I presume you didn't mention it in yesterday's post for fear of jinxing yourself...but I am highly interested.

BECAUSE YOU HAVE SUCH TERRIFIC MUSICAL TASTES.

I blame you for my Ani obsession, my Vienna Teng obsession, and almost my Mumford obsession.

Michael Franti & Spearhead! Trufax: Michael Franti has not worn shoes in 10 years. Because he is too awesome for shoes.

Glad you had a good time and nothing bad happened to you or the band!

Next time you drink, remember the hangover remedy I learned growing up in Cleveland (and which I thought was the law every Clevelander had to know?) drink a lot of water and take some vitamin C while you're drinking. Probably the vitamin C only has a placebo effect, but that's what I learned, along with green M&Ms.

Ohhhhhh bb I know all about that cure. To the point that I brought with me to the show a water bottle that I'd dosed with Emergence-C, but I had to leave it in the DD's car because you couldn't bring outside drink into the venue.

...And also I mixed whiskey and vodka, which was a really bad choice, and which I KNEW was a really bad choice, but I was already drunk by the time I did it :D

But the real question is: drunk on what? Details!

[identity profile] gyzym.livejournal.com 2010-11-15 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Uh, four whiskey sours and a...concoction. THERE IS A STORY BEHIND THAT LAST.

So I got to the bar to get another drink, right, even though by the time I've powered through four whiskey sours I am pretty much hammered. The thing is, though, that there is this thing that I like to call The Show Buzz, where you don't notice exactly how drunk you are because you're standing up and dancing and moving about and singing at the top of your lungs, and then you sit down later and you're like HOFUCK I AM TRASHED YO.

But so I go to the bar and there's this cute guy, and he's got a beer and he's ordering another drink for his friend. And he's like "He gave me shit for ordering a gin and tonic earlier so make him something really fucking girly," and the bartender made this thing with like, lemon vodka and raspberry vodka and cranberry juice. And I was like, hey, you know, I had a drink in mind, but that actually looks delicious, and the dude was like HERE TRY THIS ONE, and since I had like, watched it being made and knew it wasn't spiked, I did, and it was delicious, and so I ordered one.

And then this morning I was like FUCK MY LIFE WHY WHY WHY DID I MIX WHISKEY AND VODKA, WHYYYYYY.
