I've been drinking water all day and my head still feels like someone's opening it with a rusty can opener. I don't remember the last time I was drunk but I hope this one was truly the LAST TIME.

Now, about that Shiner Bock in the 'fridge...

Good intentions, but it's always the "last time".

i discovered years back that after i turned 30, my metabolism was not what it used to be years earlier. the hangovers after the big 30 were exponentially worse. i am 37 now, and the last hangover i had was maybe when i was 31. i found out that shit was no longer fun. i might have a beer once a month with dinner. lately, its been those Green Apple Smirnoff's. man those things are delicious when served almost frozen.

I felt hung over this morning and didn't even do anything to deserve it.....
Last time I had a hangover was the morning after my birthday in Denver, CO last March-they had a freak blizzard on my birthday, the class I was attending was cancelled at noon and once we got back to the hotel-there was nothing left to do but celebrate my birthday the rest of the day~ And it's absolutely true what they say about alcohol at high altitudes....jeesh.

I was 22 when I had my last hangover. It was also the last time I was what I considered drunk and not just buzzed. (Yeah, I know what they say, buzzed driving is drunk driving. I don't agree but I don't do either one, so there.) There is a state where I consider the mixer alone is enough for me to continue with the socializing and often that mixer is just water.
But that is not to be a condemnation of those who have found themselves past the point of sobriety. The line often sneaks up on one, especially if one is in a sushi bar and is presented with those warm little urns of saké and those innocent looking little saké glasses. There are also the corporate dinners thrown for customers at restaurants that know to hire the best waitstaff available and the wine is being provided by the bottle by someone else and you never notice your wine glass being refilled with some of the best wine I've had in a while. Then there are the times when you sit down in your brother's house after a long day of taking care of an elderly relative who is moving into a retirement home and dealing with the relative's in-laws that don't understand that an inheritance is something you get after a death has occurred and not before and your brother, in that time before turning in for the night, breaks out a bottle of Canadian Club. Yeah, in the passing years there have been more than a few moments when I knew I was just past mellow.
