Why did I ask for a double?

Well this weekend was a tough one for the Liver a those 5 brain cells that survived.  Heading out for dinner Friday I poured three fingers of Jim Beam as a primer.  My Lady and I when to an Irish Pub south of Town.  Jameson neat with a Bass following finished the night.  Boy did those leave me with a crack in the back of my skull the next day.  The drinks should have only counted as 5 maybe 6.   A number I should handle fine when spread out.  Hello Ibuprofen.

Saturday started as a nursing time, but ended with 2 parties that we had RSVP'ed.  Wading in slower this time, I split beers between sodas at the first party.   Feeling ready for punishment I lept into the second party.   Drinking Kettle One w/cranberry, pausing to toss shots of Tequila.  Probably 7 drinks that left me in better shape that the night before and definety better off than our Saturday night host who disappeared unexpectedly not to be seen again (read passed out).

Sure alcohol kills brain cells, but only the weak ones.

Always remember lots of water before heavy drinking.  The next day you can only play catch up.
