Get back to me when you're creeping up on fifty.

Truthfully, I have mixed results when it comes to drinking these days. Sometimes, it's fine. I drink a few beer, get a nice buzz and wake up totally fine. It's really only once or twice I had the situation I mentioned above where I hardly drank anything and woke up hungover anyway. In those cases, I didn't chug a bunch of water because I assumed since I wasn't feeling the effects at all, I'd be fine. If I am buzzed or verging on drunk, then I will chug a liter or something. Though for me, it's 50/50 on whether that prevents a hangover. I don't like those odds. It just seems more and more like the short buzz and euphoria it brings more and more often isn't worth the chance of ruining the next day. Especially given how much shittier your system gets at handling this stuff as you get older.

I am not out of shape either.
