Ouch

Am wondering whether I've actually developed an intolerance to alcohol somewhere along the way.

I was out last night for a friend's leaving do and I don't recall having had much to drink, not least because I was interspersing the alcohol with mineral water, but I have a killer headache today. Am out drinking again tonight with the university crowd, but thankfully with dinner. Tomorrow am meeting some fannish friends starting off with cocktails.

I'm feeling ill already.

I shouldn't be alcohol intolerant, coming as I do from a long line of alcohol guzzling ancestors, but ow!

You just need to practise more!

I get a bit headachey after those rare occasions when I have a day or two alcohol-free. Mostly though I scare myself how much I can take (if I stick to wine) and not feel a thing.

I hear the postman below -- back to work !

Sigh. Yeah, but I can't help thinking of alcohol = empty calories and keeping the weigh off becomes increasingly difficult. Yes, I know you don't have that problem. *rueful smile*

BTW, did you know Speranza's just published a new dS story? My anguish at not having the time to read it *now* knows no bounds.

My anguish is keeping your anguish company.

And I keep having to look for ever more cunning ways to hide that inch or so of unmoveable flab that has been lurking round my midriff for the past couple of years. (Don't mention excercise -- I *know * that's the only real answer!)
