Worst hangover ever would have to be the week I graduated from high school. Some of my ?friends? and I went on a cruise. I remember getting on the boat and tossing our stuff in the rooms. We didn't even cut on the lights or look in? just tossed and headed for the pool bar. We started with a round of beers... then another? and another. Now keep in mind we had been drinking for several years and were quite the seasoned veterans at 18 ... they were still pumping fuel in the boat and we were well on our way to getting toasted. This continued for about 4 hours with various fruity drinks, hard liquor and beer.

At this point we went to the room and cleaned up for supper. All I remember is crab because it was lying beside me in the bed the next morning. After dinner we hit the casino. A friend of ours was with us who was in college and he and I were playing black jack when he suggested we shoot some tequila. Bad Idea... we finished the bottle at the bar or so they tell me I remember being up on the table by about $150 (I ended up losing 200 by the time it was over) At this point I am totally gone so I am going on what my "friends" told me.

We headed to the dance club and I proceed to hit on every girl in the place in a not so subtle manner. Then I attempted to play DJ It was at this point I was informed by the captain himself that I was about to be hauled to the brig. Well my "friends decided that it was time to get me to the room this is midnight by the way so my "friends send me to my room with the two ugliest largest most unattractive women on the seven seas.

Picture this... there is an elevator and the stairs go down around it... the ceiling in the stairwell is slanted and textured with sprinklers... my "friends" are enjoying watching me navigate my way down with the two large women when I decided it would be a good idea to jump from one landing to the next... I did and the first thing to go wrong was I hit my head on the sprinkler head ripping a nice chunk of my forehead off in the process... the second thing to go wrong is I can?t stop rolling? I rolled all the way down two floors to the bottom and pass out...

I wake up in my boxer shorts in a puddle of my own urine and vomit and god only knows what other fluids (thanks two fat ladies)... I can?t move my head is pounding and my "friends" are capturing the moment on Kodak film... I crawl to the shower and sit in there on the floor for an hour then I crawl out... I take 6 aspirin and half of a bottle of pepto... then promptly passed out I woke up at noon... feeling well enough to head out to the pool bar for bloody marys... as the day went on and I consumed more alcohol I began to feel better (hair of the dog that bit you and all)

I have to say that the first waking moment of the day was the only time in my life that I have ever been immobile... in that much pain... and wishing I were dead... oh yeah and I still have the scar from the trip down the stairs and I threw my ?friends? camera overboard that night while he was out.

One last thing just to put things in perspective? we drank the ship out of Bud Light? We were told when we got on the boat that there was plenty of Bud Light and not to worry? three days into the seven day cruise they are out? I think that about sums it up.
