    Honeybear, I too have had nights like that, mostly when I was in my late teens/early 20s. To be honest I'm usually a happy drunk, I think this person just knows how to press my buttons and had also been drinking, so it was more of a sparring match than anything. In the end I think it didn't turn out to be as bad as I had thought, but I suppose the fact I can't fully remember, and the feeling of waking up with dread, are good enough reasons to be concerned anyway. It turns out my sparring partner didn't manage to get out of bed until 6pm the following day, so it most definitely was not just me!

    In more positive news, I signed up to run a 10k today! I've never done anything like this before. I had it in mind when I started learning to run last summer, but I fell out of the good habits I had built up when I got poorly in October. I've been struggling to get the motivation to start again, so thought this would give me a good kick up the bum. Alcohol is only going to hinder me with this, especially if I overindulge, so it's another good reason to be watching my intake. I'm fundraising too, so can't be letting anyone down! :)

    I'm up to 7/15 tonight please shaggy.
