ROFL - drink coffee now! lol
I've always been amused by American society's War on Drugs in the 1980s, and the lessening social tolerance for smokers of any type...which directly preceded the huge coffee boom and the start of the Starbuck's chain.
The one time I got a hangover was from a non-alcoholic Beck's. We were meeting a friend who'd just come back from a six-month job in Thailand, and he just *had* to get out of the house. He met us for ribs, we headed over to a bar, and stayed there until about 3. He urged us all to have some champagne with him, and when I ordered my traditional orange juice (looks like it could be a screwdriver, so doesn't weird out the drinking patrons any), my friend said, "Aaah, c'mon - just one drink! Something celebratory. Get a non-alcoholic beer."
Hm, I thought. No alcohol to mix with my anticonvulsant medication and really mess me up. And it will make my buddy happy.
I was 3/4 of the way through the non-alcoholic beer when I noticed the small text which told me that this non-alcoholic beer...wasn't, really. .5% alcohol content.
Whups.
I stuffed myself with corn chips in an attempt to sponge up the beer I'd drunk. It didn't quite work. Hangover the next two days, two seizures during, and seizure aura for nearly two weeks. (Felt mildly to very dizzy - a bit like running a fever.)
I still haven't quit razzing my buddy.
Vovex, have you tried drinking extra water to flush your system out?
