Regardless of my bad choice, I drank.  And drank.  And I continued to drink.  I went to bed with a full stomach and a buzz.  After a few hours of having sugar- plums dance in my head, I woke up with the BIGGEST HEADACHE IN THE WORLD!  It was awful!  I felt like a bus parked on my head while the driver ate lunch.  I immediately got out of bed to treat my dehydration.  After two glasses of water, I went back to bed hoping my head would deflate.  But, it didn’t.  It got worse.  So, I got up again and went straight to the medicine cabinet for the magic pill- ADVIL! 

 

After a half hour of jamming my head into my pillow, my head started to feel a little smaller.  Drowsiness started to kick in and I was able to sleep.  The Advil worked!  It saved the night and I woke up with no hang over. 

The Lesson Learned:  No more wheat beer!  It caused my brain to swell up like a sea monkey!
