If you have been drinking during the day and have sobered up and are now beginning to feel a little melancholy, is the answer a) more liquor or b) an early bedtime?

or c) something else?

Hmmm. If it's a little melancholy, I'd suggest bed. You'll wake up over it, and you'll have had a lovely long sleep to boot.

If, however, you've got the nasty knots of doubt and worry in your tum, then bed may not be the best place for you, as it'll probably magnify them. Maybe drinking more, though only if you're in company? Otherwise, find something to do - the washing up, say, or anything that'll occupy your mind and give you a sense of satisfaction.

There. An ultra-literalist answer.

I have drank nothing today but am about to eat some more pie. *slurp*.

I would go to sleep and maybe wake up later to drink more.

I've been restrained today, just a couple glasses of wine, a gin and tonic and a baileys and kahlua. Probably the least I've drunk on Christmas day in about 15 years

― chris (chris), Thursday, 26 December 2002 00:40 (twenty-three years ago)

I've had no booze today. I've had two cups of tea and two cups of hot cocoa.

Bed is the best option, but more drink is the option I tend to take. Pah!

the answer is so very "more liquor" that I'm drinking o.j. and sweet vermouth just to keep drinking.
