i didn't know that 'hangover' had a technical term. but lately, that has been the least important part of my "boom booms". the holiday season is one for merriment and festivities with friends and boy did i enjoy it.
the christmas holiday should have been renamed 'festival of gluttony' for me. i felt uncomfortable, even in my elastic waisted pants, filled to the brim from the lazy-susan of food flowing in front of me. even when i wasn't hungry, i managed to find something tasty in the continuously-opened refrigerator. i also managed to drink enough to kill a small farm animal.
new years eve proved to top the 'festival of gluttony' though. with a few light hor d'ourves intended, the kitchen table was filled with delightful dips and finger foods. i managed to stuff myself even before many of the guests arrived. later, afraid that i wouldn't be intoxicated for the countdown, i decided to kick it into high gear. i remember ringing in the new year and then choosing to drink nearly an entire bottle of champagne alone! (in all fairness, it was just to get the bottle stopper out of it) while i didn't stumble around or manage to pick fights, i was definitely drunkity drunk drunk.
i enjoyed the first day of the new with fabulous friends. we ate, played euchre for 6 hours, ate, drank, ate, laughed, ate, and oh yeah, ate. again, even when not hungry i still decided to force something down my food.
which leads me to the point of this post... according to wikipedia, one of the nine symptoms of a hangover (aka veisalgia) is loss of appetite. huh?!
apparently i am THE exception.

But it was oh so good baby!
The biggest concern is....why is a mo wearing pants with an elastic waist?
to anonymous: they are running pants (obviously used for comfort, not function). i don't need jeans with an elastic waist....yet
my body is very confused today - back to work, stuffed into dress clothes, not being fed to the point of painful fullness and completely sober.
what was our euchre record? 7-2? woo pa!!
