Eyes like pissholes in the snow

Was out last night for a friends birthday, said I'd only have a few but ended up going on the rip.

Now I'm hungover with two little ferret eyes sitting in the office trying to avoid people like a plague.. And I've got a rake of work to do..

Do you guys head out during the week? Mid week drinking isn't worth it IMO..

smash · 20-01-2012 10:46AM

There's nothing worse. I usually sleep in my car at lunch time.

Remember, sugar and caffeine are your friends in this situation.

Just go home

you are a danger to yourself and others around you

kfallon · 20-01-2012 10:51AM

Thursday night is fine to drink cos you only have one day of torture and then it's the weekend! Going on the lash on a Mon/Tues is the worst cos you still have most of the working week to get through!

Having said that I gave up drinking midweek a few years ago!

Funkfield · 20-01-2012 10:51AM

Manys the time in work I've had to give it a bit of AC Slater ans catch a few zzzzs in the jax

a few weeks back Chelsea were playing Man City on a Monday night and we went into Cork City to watch it and I ended up out until after 3AM and had to be in work for 8AM.

That was a hard 4 hours until my 12 o clock lunch.

Good idea at the time but looking back its never worth it.

caffine makes my hangovers worse .... i just drink lots of water.

It'll be ok OP, it's nearly 10am. Just keep your head down and continue not making eye contact.

Can of Coke or Lucozade will help get you to lunch.
A lie down in your car for 30/60 mins will make the world of difference for your afternoon.

If you work in IT, find a reason to be working in the server room/test lab. The air-con will greatly help, and you'll be out of the main flow of "people traffic".

Good luck & no, drinking on a school night stopped being an option for me when I hit my thirties.

jester77 · 20-01-2012 11:21AM

Was boozing until 1:30 last night, had a triple shot expresso this morning. So far so good!

Zulu · 20-01-2012 11:26AM

@jester77 - you need to preempt the crash. Have a can of coke to hand.

Standard Toaster · 20-01-2012 11:35AM

Where did you end up OP?

Haven't been out on the rip on a school night in a good while. Not missed one bit! Get a big fry into you if possible.

Eve_Dublin · 20-01-2012 11:38AM

If you were a woman, you could go to the loo and rest your pretty little head on the sanitary disposal unit with a jacket as a cushion like I did back in the days of yore.

It's an energy sort of thing so you'd take in the morning after or in the OPs case right about now would be good.

narfsnonsense · 20-01-2012 11:53AM

Coffee is a definite no. That would make my head explode when hungover. A kip in the car is good, but depends on how f*cked you are. Can sometimes make you feel more sorry for yourself and slow down the feeling better process!

Try and stay busy. Avoid clock watching as much as possible.

Ah don’t rub it in now! OP, you have my sympathy...But that amounts to f**k all today as I'm dying myself.

Midweek drinking just isn’t worth it IMO, but there are occasions where it just happens, like it or not.

Take last night for example...A completely unplanned session. It started early yesterday, one after work. Then I had to go out to the airport and collect a friend, one there. Then for some unknown reason, when i got home my housemate cracked open a bottle of champagne. Then we moved onto beer and then JD. Went to bed at stupid o' clock and now sitting in work...Its horrendous...

And to make things worse, I'm off the smokes at the moment, so I'm also sitting here sucking on these bloody Nicorette things, which are tolerable at best under normal circumstances, but now it feels like I'm sucking on a bulldogs arse...

fishy fishy · 20-01-2012 12:17PM

oh how I remember. I bet you were watching the clock last night while you were doing the damage and thinking "gawd sure I'm not even drunk, three hours sleep will be perfectly FINE for me". Roll on this morning, you wake up, feel normal for two seconds the realise you are still drunk. look in the mirror - can't believe the state of the eyes, barely make it to work - every minute feels like an hour.

Get a sweet coffee and a crossiant - forget your savouries - you need something really really sweet to eat.

Mid week drinking is definitely NOT worth it - unless you are about 18. Haven't done it for years, but can still remember the feeling. Even weekend drinkin isn't worth it - you wait all week for the weekend only to "lose" one full day recoving from the night before. No thanks.

anyway hope the day goes fast for you.

OP, your username fits your condition today!

Fart · 20-01-2012 12:34PM

I used to do it from when I was 18 to about last Summer. I learned not to do it when I'm busy the next day.

I've lost interest in binge drinking now. Maybe have a craft beer or two once a week, or a glass of wine with my dinner. Saves a crap load on cash too.

wilkie2006 · 20-01-2012 12:41PM

A few years ago I arranged to meet up with a mate for a quiet mid-week, evening pint. Anyway, one thing led to about fifteen more and we ended up in a lock-in. Don't remember too much about the whole night but woke up the next day with a banging headache and the fear like never before. Naturally, thought, "**** work" and stayed in bed.

The following day in work, when I logged into my computer, I saw that my boss had sent me an email with 6 voicemail files attached: all from me; all from that pissed-up night; all explaining I wouldn't be in the next day; all with different excuses (some saying I was sick, others saying I had jury duty etc); all of me ****ing hammered; and all about half an hour apart (charting a clear and steady decline in lucidity).

Ugh, that was an awkward morning
