Could Ya Keep the Noise Down, Please!

Just as I expected, it was much more difficult to go to work the day after New Years than it was the day after Christmas. I figured I would have plenty of time to recover whilst laying on the couch yesterday, but apparently, I could’ve used another day. My supervisor even said that my eyes were still a little puffy … great.

The funny part is (probably not really that funny, actually) that I wasn’t really that drunk by the time I went to bed on New Years morning. Sure, I was pretty toasted around midnight, thanks to some beer pong, two shots of Apfel Korn, and a shot of tequila.

But shortly after the ball dropped, a dance party broke out in the basement of my brother’s house. Apparently, I must’ve sweat all of the alcohol out of my system, because when my wife were getting ready to leave, I realized that I wasn’t slurring my words, I was walking straight, and there was only one of everybody I looked at. I’m not saying this is a bad thing, but I figured that I wouldn’t be hung over two days after this party. Damn tequila!

Yeah, couldn't be the combination of alcohol, dehydration, and the body clock being turned around in one day ... must be that one shot of tequila!

Hope you were cognizant for the Penn State victory!

I made the horrible decision to turn my long weekend into a 3 day bender and am paying the price. I think the alcohol killed my immune system leaving me susceptible to disease. And now I'm at work wanting to kill myself because I'm so sick.

The Rev said...

I didn't even drink much, and I've been feeling like crap for days.

I think 2007 is just killing us all.
