Hangover
|
Well, you're paying for last night's parties. Your head feels like it's going to explode and the last thing you remember was praying to stop turning your stomach inside out. The cats walk far too heavily and you swear the dead are making the loudest racket you've ever heard.

Bacchanalia2
|
That evening you relax with your troops, drinking as much wine as you can consume and singing until your throat is sore. No one cares if anyone can sing well or off-key. It's a night for parties and friends, a good night to be alive and well.

Day 90
|
Ow.
|
You're paying for last night. When will you ever learn that wine gives you a headache? People are in a good mood, despite the abundance of hangovers. At least you were smart enough to drink lots of water and avoid the worst of it. Can't wait until next year.
