Yeah, me too. Lots of dreams, lots of REM sleep. I think my body needed it.
I never have any dreams after a night of drinking.

Last year I felt great when it was done.
Then I immediately went into a 12 hour bender and woke up with a hangover that ranked in my top 5 of all time

No way I can go into this weekend cold, so just finished a beer which I think I'll chase down with some bourbon

Wanted a glass of bourbon quite badly last night again (though not as bad as the night before). Doesn't help that I'm in the process of planning a Bourbon Country trip and spending a lot of time browsing that topic. 
Wheels will be coming ALL the way off Sunday. (then back on, Monday :( )

Neeeeeeeeed sleeeeeeeeeeeeep.
Last night while not sleeping I think I figured out the problem. My chronic insomnia is from not being able to shut my brain down at night, and the lack of alcohol is making my mind race even more as it is not at all dulled by the booze. This sucks so hard.

right there with you. couldn't shut it off last night. and my new lawyer has made 4 clerical/typo errors in the last 24 hours. that i have had to point out to her.
i'm pretty sure she filed todays paperwork incorrectly with both the court and the bank good times.oh, my wife bought a bottle of our favorite cheap pinot noir last night and it was sitting there mocking me, 1/2 empty, when i got home.
i may not make it this year.

Props to NREC34 for bringing it up a few pages back. I researched it and bought some and am loving it. L-Theanine is an all natural amino acid found in green tea leaves. It is sold as a supplement in capsule form. It provides you with laser focus but also mellows you out while not making you sleepy. Combined with coffee, it is a powerful combo, but takes the jitters/edge off the caffeine. I highly recommend the 250mg pure capsules by Superior Labs, Amazon has 90 capsules for $20. Other brands may add fillers or toxins. I've gotten so much done the last few days, it's like I was in a quasi haze/fog before. Amazing stuff.

ive scored here before,
thursday evenings is when they play tripples, the biggest weekly event in MD. they sell disc at the course. its a great time to meet new people.
dig out an old tie dye, bring a twelve pack, ask about joining/donating to the club and you are IN!
eta; you can skip the beer if you are trying to stay sober, maybe cookies or pizza.

Staying on the wagon, no alcohol since Sunday. Also trying to kick my once a day soda habit. Had a pretty stressful day yesterday at work, got a bunch of stuff dumped on me and ended up working 11 hours. The cravings for a big glass of whiskey were pretty strong during the day. I caved and had two sodas while working, but by the time I got home I was so worn out the craving for alcohol went away and I didn't even feel like drinking. Just hung out with the wife and kid and went to sleep. So 1 for 2. I can live with that.

5 days in. Nothing feels different, pants may be a bit looser around the stomach region. Meeting up with friends at a bar tonight, then Super Bowl, then a work trip to NYC so the non drinking gauntlet is about to get really tough. Not going to make it but maybe will nurse the beer a bit more, think that's a respectable goal.

I literally don't know a single person (that I know of) that smokes weed. Bunch of lame ### family dudes I guess.

If I were to want weed, I'd walk into a store and buy it. 
As it is, I've never tried it and don't intend to, though I don't have any problem with others using it (and am glad to live in a state where it's legal). Suppose it could help with the insomnia, but I've never been interested in it.

I didn't drink a single drop yesterday during the super bowl 
Then again I drank from noon till 2 am on Saturday 
and was drunk well into the early afternoon before the hang over hit. It was an easy trade off, rolled into San Fran with 2 buddies to check out Super Bowl City and after realizing we'd made a terrible decision we decided to dive bar hop around the city. One bar into our excursion, someone puts metallica on the jukebox and I suddenly remember they are playing less than a mile away that night. A quick check of ticketmaster showed they weren't sold out so the 3 of us bought tickets and proceeded to get completely destroyed before going in and then since they ended at 11 we decided to keep drinking in the city till 2!!!

there is a reason weed is so popular. you should try it, you might like it.If I were to want weed, I'd walk into a store and buy it.
