    Big day at work today, lots of important things to do followed by a night out with the team. So for reasons best known to myself I decided to go out until 3am and get clattered last night.

    I'm such a fucking idiot sometimes.

    Paracetamol. Red bull. Lots of food. Sneak a lay down somewhere at lunch if you can. Been there many times.

    I've not met either of you, but I'm strongly suspecting that Russ has even more experience at this sort of thing.

    Russ is wonderful because he makes me believe I'm actually more professional than I am.

    Sounds like you just know that you aren't to me. I like Russ because he's a fuckwit like me. Different drivers. Same head space.

    To add some context, this was written after arriving home post full day at the cricket on the full corporate gravy train. That being said, I have fuck all of importance to do today.

    Today I am studying for my Level 2 BTEC exam in Pensions Essentials. My exam is in Monday. After 2 of 5 exams I'm on 98%. I hope that come October, I'll be able to add my first BTEC to my CV.

    That's nice of you to say but Russ is not fucking wonderful, I did the most astonishingly stupid thing last night and fucked things up irretreivably with my favourite person in the world. I am in a world of hungover self loathing right now.

    Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone.

    ... And absolutely nobody say "Jehovah".

    I'm going on a week long vacation on my own tomorrow. I think I'm just going to leave my phone turned off the entire time and pretend the world doesn't exist.

    Have you thought about hydrating with some liquids containing caffeine and maybe taking some paracetomol for the headache?

    I'm thinking about hydrating with some liquids containing strychnine and maybe taking some arsenic.

    (Not really, don't worry.)

    Getting pissed up again is clearly the answer here.

    Thankfully it would appear that less damage was done than I feared. Still, I think a period away from the booze and the resulting bad decisions is in order.

    Related ... I hate that feeling of dread and worry the night after a load of beer. I swear it didn't use to happen at uni and in the years that follow, but now I just wake up and have angst and a bad mood for 24 hours.
