    Hope u feel better today brotha. From 1 RF to another.
    What does self medicate involve btw?


    Just beer. All of the other stuff,and there was a lot of it, ended when college ended...ok maybe a couple of summers after college it ended.

    If you are just hanging out I would suggest good vodka. on the rocks. wont gain the beer weight, takes much less of it to do the trick and you will feel better in the AM.


    I gave up hard alcohol in 1998 because of this story and this is the God's honest truth. I was at a bachelor party and got absolutely smashed on Lemon Drops...smashed. I walked home about three miles and woke up on my bathroom floor with my pants around my ankles...grass stains on my knees like I had been walking for a bit with my pants down and had actually fallen...and me using as a pillow a metal Syracuse Orangeman trash can I had. I had actually punched a huge dent/crease in the trash can so my head would fit in there securely like it was a pillow. The next day I was such a hurting puppy...but it was a good night that night. :lol:

    All this on Lemon Drops?

    :lol::lol:

    It sounds like you've got in under control, but the worrier in me can't help but say this.. don't overdo the self-medicating, okay? And remember to eat/hydrate/sleep.

    I think they are called Lemon Drops??? From what I remember it was a shot of vodka followed up by sucking on a lemon slice coated in sugar...my stomach is turning thinking of that right now.

    Here in the states that is indeed a lemon drop. (Vodka/Lemon/Sugar)

    The key to hard alcohol (and to feeling OK the next day) is in what you DONT drink. As in, no-mixers. Captain and Cokes taste great, right? Have about 10-12 of them on a night out partying. What you forget the next AM is that you slammed a six pack of coke with that booze. (And Rum is high in sugar anyway.)

    Dont get me wrong -- I loves me some beer! But I dont want to feel like shit on Saturday or Sunday AM so I tend to stick to straight stuff. Sake/Shochu/Vodka -- they all do the trick!

    BTW, I loved the Orange growing up!
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Oh, those actually sound quite potent! They can't be Lemon Drops but to be honest, I have no idea. Only thing I have to go by is every time Lemon Drops are brought out, all the dudes around me roll their eyes and make fun of the girly shit. :mrgreen:

    Yeah I can see how going to a party with a bunch of dudes and waking up with your pants around your ankles and dirty knees and no recollection of why could cause a behavior change. :mrgreen:
