Hello 🤢🤕

Went out for, what was supposed to be, a couple of pre dinner drinks with DP, but what actually happened was, "meh.. it's cheaper to get a bottle".....followed by another couple of glasses, which then turned into "f* it, I can't be arsed to cook anyway, let's just eat here" knowing that the food is usually questionable and we could probably do with saving the money, but by this point we probably shouldn't be in contact with flames or sharp knives, so it's now more a health and safety issue really Wink A couple more glasses with dinner, taxi home, followed by more wine at home with music nostalgia, in the form of Limp Bizkit and Cypress Hill. I think there was dancing 🕺...... I'm not sure. Yes, I think there was dancing 🤦

Am now laying in bed with 'the fear' wondering why I've done this to myself.

Anyone else?

I'm hungover to buggery.

It all started so innocently Sad 4 bottles of wine later (on an empty stomach) and I am in a bad way today.

Carbs, cold coke, ice cubes and big stew for dinner.

Oh and my old favourite, a red oxo cube and hot water.
Drink it and it'll settle your stomach within 10 minutes - no one believes me when I tell them that but it really works.
My colleague was so hungover one day at work that she was willing to try anything - she went from throwing up, feeling queasy and having the shakes to relatively normal because of the oxo.
It should be prescribed on the NHS I swear.

karenbokaren · 08/09/2019 15:04

I'd kill for an oxo today.

I can't believe we don't have one tea bag in the house. SadSadSad

SeaSaltandLime · 08/09/2019 15:05

@karenbokaren
Always have an emergency supply of the things. Always!

I found this and it's so true for me first thing in the morning.

Went to Bongo Bingo. Danced a lot, shouted a lot, won bugger all, ate a kebab. Just had lucozade and beef hula hoops

karenbokaren · 08/09/2019 15:09

Haha. Grin

It's totally dh's fault. He used the last few and didn't tell me. Bastard.

I wish everyone would stop talking about lovely British food. I'm definitely homesick the most when I'm hungover.

karenbokaren · 08/09/2019 15:11

Omg. Apparently I told my new neighbour that he's a stuck up twat. I can NEVER drink again. Ever. Fml.

Out to see a show with a friend, this involved a pre show double G&T followed by an in theatre pre-show applepietini then an interval applepietini.

Out for dinner and shared a bottle of red, followed by a very civilised dirty martini in a posh hotel before heading home. Did not feel even slightly merry at any point but certainly have the fear today so feeling rather cheated!

abitoflight · 08/09/2019 16:30

Karenbokaren - your night sounds great fun to me Smile
I've had a 2 hour nap and now going for a run with DD and we'll stop at end for a vino
I'm sure I'll be right as rain after that...

coffeeandapastry · 08/09/2019 17:04

So apparently a long walk, followed by salt and vinegar crisps and a pint of Moretti was the antidote. Bowl of soup and cheesy bread for dinner and a bit of junk TV, then bed. Glorious bed Smile

How's everyone else doing?

Can I join in? 4 of us went to see dreamboys tour last night, then managed to see 2 bars and 1 nightclub after which is highly unlike me as I hardly ever drink! Managed to get home by 1am with a Chinese and my feet are still killing me 😭 snuggles from 5yr old helps.

CandyLeBonBon · 08/09/2019 17:22

Ooh pick me pick me!! I'm hungover and desperately want to try the ice trick but I can't scrape my body off the sofa.

CandyLeBonBon · 08/09/2019 17:22

Also, I want a Bloody Mary!

BishopFrownofStThigh · 08/09/2019 17:49

I'm like temp and have stopped drinking so no hangover but I had a terrible night not sleeping with painful hurt arm, so at least you lot had fun!

Karen made me laugh, I went off and had a listen to trap music (no dancing though because of arm).

Hangovers from the past: water, painkillers, sweet tea, mcmuffin type snack, sleep, time

Cric · 08/09/2019 17:53

I have acup of tea and a film.... just want I needed

karenbokaren · 08/09/2019 17:53

Dh found a tea bag!!!! In my suitcase! I love him.

My friend has just told me that I asked everyone back to my house for an after party. At 3am. Confused

DH would have been bloody fuming. He's already convinced I'm having some sort of weird mid life crisis as I've been listening to 90's music and crying for weeks.

karenbokaren · 08/09/2019 17:55

I need a poo but not sure I have the motor skills to do it all. (Getting off sofa, getting to toilet, wiping properly.)

Could just do it on the floor by the sofa and blame the dog. GrinGrin

Shadow01 · 08/09/2019 18:58

Sadly it wasn’t a night out, more a drowningn of sorrows to forget work troubles this coming week Blush

CandyLeBonBon · 08/09/2019 21:58

Same @Propertyofhood - I think I'm just about recovering now. My kids didn't recount any horror stories so apart from a bit of dodgy dancing I think I'm good.

And I cooked a Sunday roast!

Lowlandlucky · 08/09/2019 22:45

Have a large vodka with full fat irn bru and you will feel brand new in fact if you only ever drink it you wont have a hangover

Lowlandlucky · 08/09/2019 22:46

Karenbokaren bloody fantastic, sometimes the truth needs to be told

I have spent the weekend at what was billed as a lovely wholesome eco festival, where the idea was to go to lots of workshops on climate change and social justice, maybe with a touch of yoga, a sauna, and some vegan food.

But I fell in with a bad crowd. And there was cider......Now suffering a weekend's worth of cumulative hangover.
