I overserved myself last night. It was the pirate thingy. I know I'll be OK after Greenetree's sangria later, but what about tomorrow, when it starts all over again?

Help me.

Mem: Had a feeling that might happen after our last conversation yesterday. It might suck to have a hangover but heck it beats sitting in the office with one.

Dear buzz the second item on your list would definetly by off my list or at least on the WAY bottom of the list.

Very best cure to is to AVOID them in the first place. (Sorry Mem!) And the best way to do that is make sure you drink water while you're gettin' lit.

1 shot every half hour or hour. 151 is best. But anything else will work too.

Water during imbibing is great advice. I've also found that a bedtime ingestion of maalox, tylenol and water can head off some symptoms too.

I find that a mixture of Motrin, multivitamins, and water will do the trick -- as will avoiding rum at all costs.

After you crawl home, take 3 advil with a LARGE glass of water... apparently, a root cause of a hangover is dehydration. Don't wait till the morning to do this as by then you will have the hangover the above should help you avoid!

If that fails then drown your sorrows in more booze...

Avoiding excess is best. But if you must, keep yourself well hydrated. Avoid darker colored whiskies-- they contain things (I don't remember what they are called) that add to the headaches of a hangover. My stomach is what can't take it, so using the john the next morning is very relieving.

Buzz, the few times I was actually able to have sex with a hangover, I felt like my brain LITERALLY was going to rip up into a billion pieces. The pain excrutiating inside my skull. Having said that, I'd probably do it again. But I certainly wouldn't call it a cure for my hangover.

It has worked for me, that's all I can say.
Of course it's not always an option -
so that's why I keep a lot of pork roll and cheese in the house.

Try a spliff.

"A spliff is, originally, a Jamaican term for a large cone-shaped smoking device carved of wood and packed full of ganja (possibly mixed with tobacco leaf (fronta) or pieces, as per one's taste). Eventually rolling papers replaced the solid cone. Outside of Jamaica, the word may have diverse meanings."

My cure is 2 Advil, 1 tablespoon of honey, 2 Tums, and water. I don't take this before I go to bed because it will most likely come back up. I wait until morning and then take my little concoction and go back to bed for an hour. Then I'm good to go. Also, I try to avoid vodka. That seems to help.

K_soze: I agree completely, that definitely works. Unfortunately it sometimes isn't appropriate to get drunk at 10AM on a Sunday, especially when I have to drive somewhere. Also, when your head is pounding that hard, it is harder for my brain to convince my hand to grab the bottle of booze.

That's easy, just drive to where you gotta go the night before and crash (no pun intended) in the car. It's a nice surprise to wake up and suddenly be in front of Home Depot and if you use a straw you don't have to reach too far
