Aftermath

This morning I experienced what I think was my first proper hangover. I am 25. I have been blessed with being able to drink socially and save for the occasional headache, wake up the next morning with little to no hangover symptoms. I also never vomit, with the exception of new years 2003. (never again!) I’m not sure why I have been so lucky, maybe I am more of a moderate drinker than I think, maybe I have a bigger “constitution” so to speak. But this made me wonder why people drink so often when they feel so terrible the next morning? I know people who go to the bar on saturday, drink till they puke their guts out and repeat the next weekend. Are they insane? Do the hazy memories of drunken antics outweigh the terrible feeling afterward? I mean, I felt like hell today. I still didn’t vomit (which now makes me question whether or not it was a “proper” hangover) but I have no desire to feel that way in the future.

Maybe I have a booze free future ahead of me. Wouldn’t be the worst change that’s for sure.
