I think I drank too much on Friday night, mostly because of how rough I felt Saturday morning. Uggh, probably the most hungover I have been in a few years. The odd thing is that I have definitely been more drunk than that, within that time frame (I may have been seeing double but the room wasn't spinning and I have had that happen in the past few years on at least one occasion). I suspect that the hangover might have been due to the combination of drinks.
This was actually part of the problem: Based on some of my plans, I was probably going to end up having maybe 1 more beer than usual but I didn't account for, or correctly adjust plans around, a friend of mine buying me 2 shots when out. This is unusual, and I am not sure why she was being so generous (bought a bunch of us shots), but I hope it doesn't mean that there is anything wrong.
I do really wonder how I come across, when drunk. I don't think that I have ever ruined a friendship, while drunk, but mostly just feel physically rough the next day, so there is that. These days, I oddly feel more emotionally in-tune and natural in ways my sober self can't normally match, which is interesting. Of course, maybe I am just being tolerated, from the external perspective.
Hard to know, but I often ask friends if I was ok and they never say that anything was wrong unless I already remember being unusually irritable, or something (which happens maybe every few years if I am just in a bad mood). Even in those cases, they mostly just seem to laugh at how annoyed I seemed in my responses to things.
In any case, it was nice to get out after missing my last planned outing 2 weeks ago. Time is passing whether you engage with the physical world or not and I might as well use it before I lose it (my physical form and metabolism, that is).
Still, the way I feel terrible for up to one day and then tired for another day puts limits on me. At least I managed to get my groceries and cook my food, today.
