Getting older sucks

[jimnyc]

While in NJ this weekend I had 2 decent sized Rum and Cokes. Woke up Sunday morning with a damn hangover that lasted most of the day. I used to be able to drink all night long, have a glass of ice water and some ibuprofen before going to bed, and wake up fine.

Did you drink the water and the ibu this time around and stil get the hangover?


I can't drink much anymore either...first off, I am a petite woman and can't handle too many anyway, without getting flat out drunk...2 ok, just tipsy and my husband says "flirty", but by the time I am done with the third, I am passed out or in the bathroom hugging the toilet....

getter older does have its negatives...

But there are some positives to it too Jim!

decent size = what? 20oz Rum and 10 oz coke each?

2 ok, just tipsy and my husband says "flirty",

Absolutely - reduced car-insurance prices.

Actually, no!

Probably around 50/50 in a 12-16oz glass.

Can you then explain why there is an "empty" bottle of Rum on my dresser? Has someone forgotten how to count, or do you think maybe Porter tied one on?

Just remember it only binge drinking if you stop and start again!!!!

Jim - I REALLY would love to live close enough to you to go-out, or stay-in, drinking

Jim, you have to get rid of your empties!

Well, my little puppy did seem a bit disoriented on the ride home! Simple answer, being the nice guy I am, I shared my bottle.

Soon enough, I'll either venture out the Seahawk land or you can come to this crime ridden hellhole!

Jim, you have to get rid of your empties!

Nah, I leave that for my Mommy to clean up.

If you don't feel like crap the next day, you're not doing it right.

Rum and coke usually doesn't give me a hangover. It helps if you drink diet coke, it has less sugar, so you have less of a sugar crash in addition to hangover the next day.

There is a product on the market called Chaser.

You take a couple of them during your drinking and then a couple before you go to bed.

They work quite well in my experience.

I heard of them before, but they cost money! I was too busy spending what little I had on alcohol and cigarettes!
