and this isn't a new discovery. i'm just restating a known fact. it makes me very, very stupid. first, while i'm actually drunk, i'm usually obnoxious and a little hypersensitive. i get pissed off pretty easily and like to pick fights. i'm also loud loud loud, finally truly acting like a jansen. all these things are okay though... most people get like this when they are drunk. it's no big deal. it just makes it funnier to laugh at them.
it seems i had more trouble with the after effects. i know it's been awhile since i drank anything, almost a month, but i didn't think i'd be so bad. i had a horrible hangover. most extreme elimination challenge drunken monkey friday will do that to a girl. that has to be the best drinking game ever. i don't think we've ever made it through more than one episode. cap that off with a great game of BANZAI!! with everyone placing drinking bets... well, you see what i'm talking about. it was uber fun. i finally got to sleep around 5:30 in the am and had to wake up at 10:00. i woke up and i was sleeping upside down on the bed with huey's toe practically in my ear.
so yeah, right off the bat it was not a good morning. then i had to get up and try to drink water, take advil, and run around finding work clothes that weren't all wrinkled. i considered ironing for two seconds, but in my shaky state i knew i'd probably just burn myself on the face again (don't ask). so i threw them in the dryer and went to lay down. when i woke up again 45 minutes later (woops) i threw on the clothes which only got more wrinkled in the dryer and went down to jaylee's apt to wake him up.
we were late to work but that wasn't too big a deal. i was dying though because i wore a white shirt to work and the sun was just reflecting off it like mad. my head was pounding by the time we got to work. then i kept stumbling around, tripping over my feet and running into corners. the guys i work with thought it was funny. then the first person that comes in for the day, i do their activation, fumbling my way through it and having to keep correcting myself b/c i tell them the wrong thing. i finally finish after like half an hour when it should have been 10 min, and i send them out the door feeling relieved. half an hour later i realized that i never rang out the phone i gave them. crap, crap, crap. i basically gave it away. yeah, the guys thought that was funny too.
so after this my head did clear some, but i just felt funky all day. and considering that i didn't drink that much the night before, i think that clearly i am just getting too old for this shit. i can't bounce back the next day the way i used to. i wonder if those hangover pills on the commercial really work. i wonder what side effects they have. any pills that seem like they might actually be useful usually have crazy side effects like anal leakage or twitchiness. anyway, i think i'm drink free for another two weeks b/c i have to work a ton between now and the wedding. between work, packing for the move and painting the new place.... well, no time for hangovers. all this means i'll only have one good night of drinking in me for this whole wedding weekend. b/c after i get drunk and then hungover, i'll be done for a few more weeks at least. and this is fine with me, b/c it seems like i always get spilled on at weddings by drunk people (either myself or someone else) so this will maybe help with that. yay wedding!! i'm so excited with that and the move and everything. may is my favorite month, ever!!
