Forum Old Man/Woman's Club : Other Alcohol Poisoning..

Recovered at last.

[Uggghhhhh!] Almost.

Lemme put this in perspective. When I do drink, I rarely get so bad that I can't stand, or that I can't remember things.

I don't remember the journey home, the bit where I decided to Superman dive into a huge hedge and land squarely on top of it and just lie there, or when I had an arm round my gf and her friend each and said "Well I'm sorted for the night. Do I get to sleep in the middle?"

DOH!

I <b>do</b> remember yakking up in the loo at 4.28am (it took about 2 hrs of wandering about the sleep-over flat before my body decided it was a good thing to do.

Next day I had the hangover of all mothers. Or was the it the mother of all bottles? Dunno. Cuppa tea and water....yakkity yak. Ouch! Took about 6 hrs before I could look at food, and another 4 (18 since the drinking) before I felt good enough to drive home.

Never let a stranger buy you doubles of vodka, no matter how good she looks, and never, never, ever switch to whisky about halfway through the night.

Good night though! The best bit was watching all the girls dancing for the honoured guy (just became a Dad and is also leaving for the Navy today). Mmmmm! Lovely!

Ho hum. So I'm off booze for the rest of my life. How are you all doing?

Suggestion: go to a chemist and get some rehydrating powder, they'll know what you mean. It'll fix you up real quick. I always take it before a boozing session or a longhaul flight.

Gatorade might help hydrate you again.

Been there done that. It sucks.

Ended up in hospital one night as a result. Fell over a small garden wall and took all the skin off my shinbone from my ankle to my knee. Luckily a friend found me just as I was turning blue. A pretty immature and dangerous thing to do.

I've only ever done vodka once, and that was the worst experience of my life. Never ever again. You have my sympathy.

BTW, did you get to sleep in the middle in the end?

Yeah, really works well. Although you might want to think about which of the range of 'appealing' flavours you choose.

Nope. Kinda glad actually. You know the gag about how your perception of women changes as the drinks go down? Applicable here.

I got a fair amount of good-natured ribbing about it, and the gf isn't letting me out of her site in said company again. LoL!!!

Ah, beer goggles. Oh, how I know the feeling.

See, you can blame your condition on your gf. She instigated the trip, so your pissed up state is her fault. Send her on a guilt trip.

:frown: that sucks dude
about 6 years ago i was hosting a party for my friend angie for her 20th birthday. i had just gotten through going to bartending school. i learned that by using sweet and sour sauce (very strong lemonade) and pineaple juice that you use to make tropical drinks such blue hawaiins, maitai's you can pretty much make any alchoholic combination smooth and tasty. i was mixing vodka w/captain morgans topped off with pineapple juice and lemonade mix. in less than 2 hours i 6 1/2 glasses of those concoctions. i was drinking out of glasses that were probably 16ozs plus. i easily had 2 ounces or better hard liquor in each drink. needless to say i am on my couch and put my head back to rest. boy that was a mistake. now it feels like i am on Batman the ride or shockwave (roller coasters at six flaggs great america) the room was already spinning and i was way past the point of no return. i had consumed these drinks very rapidly over the course of an hour 1/2. i get up slowly from the couch not trying to be too obvious and make my way to the bathroom to throw up. and throw up i did, repetitively for the next 10 minutes or so. your body can still throw up when there is nothing left, dry heaving. i think i rinsed my mouth out and went downstairs and slouched myself outside on my balcony to get some fresh air. i promptly threw up again mostly dry heaving. i was out by 10:30 pm, we started drinking at 9 while the party was still going on. woke up at 6 the next morning with the most monstrous headache i have ever had and still hammered. i downed some aspirin which came up less than 5 minutes later. i had to go into my job (pizza delivery) it wasn't until 3pm that afternoon that i could eat anything with my stomach get nautious at the throught. went home half way through my shift. the things you do when you are young

Funny you say that, I just had my B-day party friday night. I work at a nightclub on the weekends so It was free liquor all night. Not to mention the people bringing me numerous drinks. I just remember waking up in my girlfriends bed but I dont remember her coming to the club or taking me home. Luckily for me I know not to guzzle water, tea, gatorade or anything like that. If your sick your body is going to throw it up. Only thing you can do is sip on some water very slowly to basically try and get rid of the cottonmouth. Then just lay in bed in agony until some of the effects start to fade. About 1230pm or so I was able to eat half of a sandwich and drink a glass of water. By about 6 or so I could eat semi-normal and drink all the water I want.

Anyway I feel for ya, I'm still drained from the other night.

Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

My first term at Auburn, my friend and I each had a fifth of vodka (the next size bottle down from a liter, maybe 3/4 of a liter?) in about an hour, hour and half. Then we went walking around campus. Started going back to the dorm when we started having serious problems walking, and the cops busted us about 100 yards from it. Carried me off in one car and him in another. Got one of em back, though, when I puked in his car. They made my friend clean it up.

Busted us for public intoxication and consumption by a minor. Woke up in a cell with my head exploding and no clue where I was til I sat up and looked around. "Aww, fock, I'm in jail!"

I was always the damn designated driver. Comes from being the oldest of my group of friends (thus the first to get a liscence) and one of the few with access to a car.

I've been drunk like twice, once while camping and once at a party at my place (where I didn't have to drive). I've never been totally shitfaced and I've never had a hangover. Closest I ever came was while camping. I was well on the way when I noticed my friends had pulled the picnic table up right next to the fire and were so damn drunk that there were falling off it. I figured that I had better stay halfway sober in case someone fell into the fire and needed to be dragged out.

While it can be kinda fun being the only sober person in a group of drunks, you get tired of it pretty damn quick.

Remember me talking about the crappy motel we spent the weekend at in the hills, for a wedding a few weeks back? My birthday was that Friday. That night, after the rehearsal dinner and hanging out with some of the other out-of-town friends and relatives and having a few beers, the little woman goes into the bathroom, and comes out in black heels, black stockings, black lace teddy, and black lace garter belt. She said “Since we’re staying in a trashy motel on your birthday, I figured I’d be your trashy whore for the night.” Turned out to be a not-so-bad evening, to say the least.

The funny thing was, she had gone into the bathroom to change earlier, and she didn’t know I had gone onto the porch to hang out with the guys and drink beer. Well, at the same time she comes out, all “dressed up”, the bride-to-be is walking into our room to chat, because I’d told her “yeah, Hope’s in there, go on in,” not being aware of the plans. She said it was kind of a surprise for both of them.

Nah, she didn't get mad. She didn't even bat an eyelid the next night, after the wedding, when this other guy and I got totally blitzed and whizzed off the pier into the lake at the end of the reception (not sure HOW many people saw that), tried to steal a paddleboat from the pier back at the hotel, etc, etc,etc. I was stunned.

I don't think he'd dare push it too far, otherwise his early morning wake up call of Hope blowing the pipe might cease with immediate effect.

Although if you don't ask, you don't get. He who dares, wins.

Well that must have been one heck of a drinking session... but not really alcohol poision (if it was you would've ended up in hospital), more like a very very bad hang-over.
