My good friend got married this weekend, and it was a par-tay. Fun fun fun and I finally had my drink, a drink I have not had in...geez, like 18, 20 months? The most delicious of all drinks: Jack and Coke. Because of the caffeine in the Coke, I have not had this since giving up caffeine for my ODWU at the far-away clinic. Which was in August 2009. And then of course, no alcohol with being pregnant and BFing. Long long time.
And boy oh boy, was it tasty. So very tasty that I had several. Mmmmmmm!
But Sunday morning came awfully early. And loudly. I had already planned for Mr. P to get up with the Critter, so I could sleep in. But ouch. Its been a long long time since I felt so rough. Apparently alcohol has not changed in the last 18 months, and drinking multiple Jack-n-Cokes will still give you a hangover. Ouch.
Ah well, it was worth it. But I am not 22 anymore (hell, I'm not even 32 anymore!) and this is not something I can do often. But it was fun while it lasted!!

haha, i am a total lightweight too! even if my husband gets up with the baby i find it hard to sleep, i am usually wide awake around 7am unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteI am totally impressed that you went without caffeine that long! I have stayed away from the strong stuff, but a cocacola every now and then was too much to resist. Rum and coke... yum yum. So good to hear you had some old fashioned adult fun even though you had to suffer a bit the next day!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to hear that you got out and lived it up my friend! :) It's definitely harder as we get older- sorry about the day after, but it sounds like it was all worth it! :)
ReplyDeleteHope you survived this morning's crazy storms!
I have heard of women who's monthly cycles align, but I didnt know it happened on long-term-IVF-mum's-who-aren't-drinking-for-years as the Mango Princess was out on it this weekend as well. How funny!
