I can't decide what to cook...I'm so worn out
Let's just say I drank a wee bit too much Red Wine last night when I had company over, and I paid for it today. I'm tired, it's hot and humid in here, and I am left with a decision:

Spaghetti Carbonara

or

Annie's Mac and Cheese

There are other options but these two spring to mind. The first, b/c I want to use up the bacon in the fridge. But, it'll be ok to use it tomorrow too.

Hmmmm....I'm leaning towards Annie's.

:hi:

1. Annie's!!!!
Less to think about in the prep and it's tasty.
When I used to buy Annie's I'd dice a carrot, some celery, some onion, whatever I had and throw it in the pasta water before adding the mac. Made it a little more interesting that way.

4. Toast ...

I can't think beyond toast with a wine hangover.

But with those options, I'd go with the Mac and Cheese.

6. I had a Turkey sandwich earlier...
Aren't wine hangovers the *worst*?

I could drink copious amounts of vodka and not feel this crappy...Series.

8. So could I ...

... and I have.

Had a bit of a drinking issue in my 20's (NEVER date a Russian with a competitive streak when you have one too ... you'll lose ALL drinking games) and could consume a fifth of vodka and wake up the next day and at least function fairly normally.

Half a bottle of wine, and I am worthless the next day. A wine hangover allowed me discover that a fly landing on me is WAY TOO LOUD.

9. Seriously...It's unreal
I have drank soooo much vodka in the past, and been able to get up and function, go to school, etc. Wine, I'm out for the count. I spent the greater part of my day napping and feeling like crud. Goddamn.

I think I need to drop wine from the repertoire. It's too much. Oy vey.
