The passing of one year, and the start of another, introduced to me yet again both the pains and pleasures of alcohol. Over the course of about 3 hours i consumed approximately 10 alcoholic beverages of various kinds. Those that i recall were some 4 or so shots of vodka, 3 cans of beer, 1 Mikes Hard Lemonade, 2 Smirnoff drinks of some sort, as well as possibly a shot or two of whiskey. While in my inebriated state, though i knew i was drinking too much, i proceeded. In the short time after i decided to stop drinking, i found myself out side on two occasions vomiting profusely. Thinking that i was feeling better, i decided i didnt need to lay down, but i was incredibly wrong. I again found myself in a most humiliating position, hunched over the toilet, vomiting uncontrollably. This is where my night ends, just a black void fills the hours between three and eight am. Somehow after passing out in the bathroom, i managed to find the sofa, and there i slept. Until about 8am when i woke up, having the usual disgusting taste of stale alcohol on my breath, but aside from this, which is always to be expected when one consumes such an amount of booze, i was feeling quite fine. I sat around and conversed with the hung over folks, being very grateful i was feeling good. But how long would this fortunate event last, how long before i would be crippled by the nausea and found face down in the toilet bowl, letting out all the contents of my stomach. It lasted but a short while, i suddenly felt the urge to vomit, and i did. Not once, but a good six or so times in the hours that passed, until i fell asleep, having a great slumber. I was revived around 3pm, and taken home by my comrade, where i then bathed, washing away all the filth that had accumulated in my not sober state. There is nothing i love more than being nice and clean after allowing myself to be in such a disgusting state. I think i shall lay off the sauce for at least a few months, i have no desire at all to drink or be drunk. I am off to have a good, sober, night of sleep. goodbye.
