hungover

life brings with it all kinds of different hangovers. there is the conventional head pounding, nausea inducing version which is typically brought on by excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages. then there is the club version brought on by a late night filled with a variety of elements including dancing until dawn. there is the cyclist hangover which is where you take on a ride that's beyond your capability and max your body out - resulting in painfully sore muscles, fatigued body, and a continual need for naps, food and drink.

we are all familiar with these types of hangovers... but there's another one that's of a different variety. this one is a result of a more positive force - where you have a great evening, or series of days, that you don't want to end. in this case the hangover materializes in a different form with a whole new set of symptoms including lack of desire to work, difficulty concentrating and continual contemplation of the weekend past and anticipation of the next one to come.

looks like someone's got a case of the mondays

the former is certainly preferred over the latter. i'll take those few days anytime! BUT hangovers, no matter what form they present themselves, are still no fun.
