Bartender, you, uh, can suggest an antidote to Finnish cranberry-vodka induced hangovers?

I'll have a triple of that.

I need something - not coffee, I hate it - to keep me awake. For the last week, the best night I had was when I slept for 6 hours.

Cass, have you tried energy drinks? They don't help your concentration, but you just might stay awake 'cause of the slight shaking they induce in you .

Then again perhaps that's bad.

What need do you have for staying awake anyway?

And as for a coffee shop name, how about Apolytonics Anonymous (geddit? )

I've tried a couple of them once. Not only do they cost helicopters they taste horrid.
Shaking? I've had that too, out of exhaustion and low blood sugar.

Good point. However, I should try to get myself so tired, that I'll fall asleep early tonight so that I won't be too tired tomorrow. If I take a nap now, no can do.

Where I come from there're dozens of the damn things and they're only about US$1 each - and some taste OK...

How about a game of pool or something? --Points at unnoticed pool table near the back of the coffee shop--

That little bit of activity might keep you up. And me too, at least until I get that hangover cure. BW and Tia must be asleep in the back or maybe just drinking all the good tequila.

I'll give them maybe another half an hour, then you get your drink. They may need sleep but the coffee shop is still open. And you could always drink coffee all night to stay awake so this sort of thing wouldn't happen.

I should really stop switching personal pronouns like that.

Hope they won't be too mad with me.

I've seen what BW can do to ppl. And they don't even need to piss her off.

Hey MOBIUS. So how ABOUT that 5-1 England win over Germany September 2 last year? (From your webpage ) That was what capped off the greatest night out I had that year (it played here live at about 4am ), and kicked off the day of my 21st!

And since everyone else is getting their own drinks, can any of you guys suggest a hangover cure to counteract the terrible effects of half a litre of Finnish Cranberry-vodka?

--Aims at dartboard. Dart narrowly misses Skanky, who is just returning from bar (AGAIN - he has just finished the first Bourbon/Coke)--

Whoops! Sorry. I really need to get rid of this shakiness.

Say, that drink looks good if I do say so myself.

Hmmm, I've already finished my second bourbon, and the bottles are already out...

Well, I DO like Black Russians. (Why is it that White Russians are effeminate?) But uhhhhh... MORE vodka! At least it's Russian vodka (hopefully) and can oppose the evil EVIL Finn's vodka.

At least I'll be able to sleep (I'll be unconscious soon.)

Hey, any cigars back there? I could do with a good one.

Where's everyone? It's just been us for hours.

And, hate to leave you here alone, but now that Ish is sufficiently intoxicated by Mimosas...she's accepted a real life invite to go to the movies this afternoon (IMAGINE THAT!!) Rare occurrence indeed.

I'll see everyone after the movie.
