Middle-Aged Mama Hangover

I woke up this morning right around 7:00 to something that sounded vaguely like a guitar.  I thought, if LG is making music at 7:00 am I will not be pleased.  Kid was sound asleep.  Noise coming from the undergrad neighbors whose backyard backs up to mine.  It occurred to me I felt like I'd gone to a frat party, which actually I never did as an undergrad, and woke up hungover.  That same headache and godawful dry feeling in the mouth that I've rarely experienced as a result of drinking but have felt often as the aftermath of a migraine and/or taking benadryl at night.

But apparently when you plan an event that's really poorly attended and there's a lot of good food you end up eating it, even if you know you'll regret it the next day.  Yeah, so I had a major wheat binge.  And then I was keyed up and had trouble sleeping.  Now I feel ugh.

And LG said she didn't think it was a good idea for her to walk to the coffee shop and buy me some coffee.  Why not, I asked.  Because, she said, I'm not allowed to walk that far by myself.  Oh, yeah, I said.  And, Mom, I don't think coffee shops sell things to kids without grownups.

  1. I hate that feeling, especially when there wasn't a night of wild partying to make it worth feeling that bad.

    Too bad LG is so sensible. LOL
