Gibberings CLXXII - I Have Zero Imagination

Good luck, Nick!

Festival was rather good. And after MDMA on 4 days out of 9, with a (surprisingly pleasant) AL-LAD cherry on top, I think I might be giving my brain a rest for a few weeks. Woo for sobriety. Hope y'all are good. <3

Aye it's hit us here. Nice and cool in the house, was like walking into a brick wall going outside. Nice though. Got a wee AL-LAD afterglow, everything is good. Got an essay finished and cleaned the living room, having a beer now and doing sod all except watching our pet tarantula woefully attempt to climb the glass walls of her tank. She keeps falling off and she keeps trying. Fortunately she's not hurt herself but god really I didn't expect it to be so stupid.
 
At about 7:30am, the breeze here was almost cool enough for me to have to zip up my jacket. Almost nipple-erectingly cool. Which is why I didn't zip up my jacket. Gotta get it where you can.

Now it's still breezy, but the sun's well and truly out.
 
I think it's been much better weather wise, not too hot. I haven't been outside though. Woke up feeling shitty so ordered 3.5g of mephedrone, it's just too easy. Something to look forward to at least. How's everyone else doing?
 
Pretty good thanku... off to mates in a bit for some messy-ness. he works some fucked up hours since hes got his new job
 
Evenin', all. Did I ever mention how much I dislike hangovers? Comedowns can be converted to afterglows - or at the very least just considered part of the ride - but booze comedowns are utterly without positives of any kind :|
 
Agreed, hangovers are awful. :( <3

At least with comedowns I can enjoy wallowing in misery and listening to Staind, which kind of appeals to my goth side.
 
^ Such a wrong' un, Dan :|

Actually no. Such a young 'un is probably more the issue. Give it another 10 years or so. Hangovers don't even exist until you hit your mid-30s or so. Not proper ones anyway. That's one thing about knocking on a bit folk ain't kidding about. Lawdy do hangovers take on whole new meaning when you finally start getting real ones 8(

Yeah, but there's not a lot you can do about comedowns, save continuing till you get the voices, which isn't the best choice if you're working soon. At least with alcohol a well spaced bottle of wine can soften the blow no end for worktime.

In either case, opies are a godsend.
 
Opies actually make my hangovers worse (they are notorious for causing headaches so perhaps not entirely unsurprising). Your point about not being able to put off comedowns by taking more drugs but being able to put off hangovers by drinking more booze perhaps needs a bit more work too due to being somewhat contradictory. I can avoid a comedown forever if I never stop taking drugs. Probably. I find drinking more the next day after drinking heavily just makes me feel worse that day and doubly worse the next day (or often two or three days). Only cure for a hangover are benzos or GBL cos they actually kill it dead. Temporary measures only ideally cos both have rather nasty 'hangovers' of their own when piss is extracted.

Indeed, i've heard about those hangovers that last for days or something.. used to get some belting head pulsing hangovers until i kept on the hydration.. then pretty much nothing. worst ones i ever got were hangovers that turned into edgy CNS rebound. dont get any rebound these days nor any depression or anything after unless its from benzos,. just a feeling of grotty battered-ness but nowt severe. unless i hammer it hard and end up with kidney aches. currently much preffed to emotional fuckery and sometimes lethargy that goes with a comedown. when hangovers start getting too rough i'll probably stop drinking. maybe... tolerance high and has been for awhile
 
Booze tolerance is a real pain. Am sure that's making these hangovers far worse than they need to be. Fairly obviously I suppose due to having to drink so much more before I notice I've drunk anything. I should do more on the proper hydration front too I know (milkshakes ftw - water is useless (cos it's (lack of) various salts and minerals that cause most of the problems rather than simply (lack of) fluids afaik).
 
Far from useless but yeah salts and minerals account, i dont take them into account but water alone helps massively, better than nothing anyway.. dehydration is bollocks. very bollocks
 
'Useless' was not the right word. 'Of less use alone than alternative fluids which additionally contain bobz that water itself doesn't' would be nearer the mark. Albeit a tad less snappy. I really do recommend milkshakes though - one of very few things I've noticed which really does help. A pint or two of milkshake I notice feeling a bit better with, pint or two of water doesn't seem to make a huge difference to me. Probably cos it just makes me wee more so goes straight through - hopefully flushing some crap out with it - but doesn't leave any goodies behind to do much more than gradually flush out the nastiness. Then again, I go about it all the wrong way I suspect. You're meant to alternate soft drinks and boozy ones, no? Don't think just sloshing down a couple pints of water before bed or when consciousness makes its dread return later on it makes such a difference whatever you use to rehydrate.
 
To me though, drinking lots of water before bed after getting drunk the hours prior does indeed make a difference... Less of a hangover and all that...

Yeah, I find that water and clubbing still makes me rather dehydrated afterwards because of the lack of minerals/electrolytes/etc.. sadly clubs don't often serve milkshakes, but I imagine they'd work pretty well for rehydration.
 
Milkshakes have fats and sugars in them, which is not alk your body loses. Eating something salty might be the better vhoice for minerals and salts...

There are those rehydration powders you mix with water after intense workouts... They used to do wonders for me after a night out drinking and being stimmed up a bit. Kinda expensive though...
