going clubbing and getting older?

[Mr.Big]

just looking at another thread there.. i love the nightlife..

I mean it got me thinking, does it get harder as u get older constantly boozing.. it just interests me how much everyone else does every weekend..

I know im irish and live in dublin so were known as heavy drinkers but still.ok here was my weekend and how much i drank. it started on thursday.

ok left work, starting drinking at 7pm had 6 bottles of corona. got to a girls party i was going too at around 9 had about 5 more pints.. left there about 11 and went to a club had maybe another pint or two and about 3vodkas and got home at 4am..

Woke up on friday with a stinking hangover.. didnt go to work as i was fucked up. waited a couple of hours and started drinking 6pm, went to dinner with a couple of mates had about 4pints. went to a pub around 730 had another 5 pints.left at about 10 and went to another girls party where had 2pints and a vodka.. went to a club about 1230 and had another couple of pints and some more vodka.. home at 430am..

Woke up at 10 on saturday morning another stinking hangover.. waited a couple of hours and my mate came in.. started drinking at 7 and 9cans of beer.. went to a club about 1130, had a triple JD and coke and a another pint.. left there and went to another club and had another double JD and coke.. left that place at 330am...met some random girl and went to a wine bar and had a bottle of wine with her till 430.. got her back to my place and was up with her till 7am doing the bad thing..

woke up at 10am and went for breakfast... i mean thats a normal weekend for me.. im 25 and have been doing this for the last 8years without fail.. i feel as if im going to burn out.. i mean when i was in college.. id be doing this 4-5 nigths a week, i think im getting older. im glad im not a drugtaker cause i know id crash...

so how was ur weekend?

Re: going clubbing and getting older?

Ah...that description reminds of how most of my weekends were until 5 years ago...

Look, I?m 30 now, I?ve got wife and kids, so I go clubbing and drinking a lot less than I used to, but even so, I can tell you that hangovers now are much worse and seem to last longer.

I mean, let?s say I go out and drink 4 or 5 vodkas (my drink of choice along with whiskey) and a couple beers...I?ll go to bed at 6 a.m., wake up around 1 p.m. (because my wife forces me to) and I?ll still be drunk (well, queasy at leat, because it?s a lot harder fo me to get drunk nowadays), and I?ll stay like that until say...dinner time..that?s when the hangover sets in, and it?ll last until the next morning!!!

So you see, I get drunk on a saturday night and I?ll go to work on monday with a hangover...

My stomach also usually feels a lot worse than it used to...it used to be that I could gobble 10 pints (no joke) one night and wake up quite ok, not having the shits or anything...now...well, I won?t even go there...

Still, when I remember that I used to go out on weeknights too, and get late to work, totally hungover and fucked up, I don?t miss it. I also don?t miss that period when I would wake up and have my hands and knees shaking until lunch time, when I would drink my 1st beer of the day.

IMO, you shouldn?t start worrying right now. Enjoy it.

Re: going clubbing and getting older?

My weekend was getting huge boxes crammed into a comparitively small car and moving them back and forth from storage to new (shithole) aparment. If you're drinking your guts out, its good cause believe me you'll hit a stage and it'll be..... aahh fuck it I'm just gonna light up, sit at home and put me headphones on.....

but even so, I can tell you that hangovers now are much worse and seem to last longer.

BING-FUCKING-O
I got shit canned 2 weekends ago (the last Friday of a 2 month stay back home) with my brother, came back home swirling like a whirlwind, puked all over the bedroom and my lovely wife had to clean it up. I hated that the most but I cant even tell you the life sized hangover I had the next morning.... felt like I had been shot in the head....

overall once you're married, clubbing does tend to reduce.... ESP if your better half isn't really into the music..... so while you're still 25 and unmarried, I say keep up those weekends

Re: going clubbing and getting older?

last six months i've been paupering my way through life, but shortly i'll plan a good proggy night out and get wasted beyond belief. I wanna go bad with the women, get slapped in the face and puke all over the place. Just because it's been so long.

I guess going to bed with the men got a bit old, no?

Re: going clubbing and getting older?

there are only two factors to consider IMHO.

1. do you have children? if yes, then tone it down and deal with them. if your 22 or 52. they come first.

2. you are only as old as you feel. im 25 and feel like im 60. i have an uncle who is mid 40's and can party for days.

I hate when that happens... but I never have a woman by my side to clean it up you lucky SOB.

they come easier now. i use to be aable to pop an advil and some water and boom gone. now i am trying to pick up my face at the front door. indeed. getting old sucks. but it is also fun to yell at the young. i would rather be wise then young. i can tell you that.

Re: going clubbing and getting older?

When are you too old to go to a club?

Re: going clubbing and getting older?

never. Les Paul plays a monthly in NYC and there are plenty of oldies chilling out and enjoying a nice scotch. now a 72 yr old in front of the booth at crobar is a bit different.
