The Hangover

Dear Hangover ~ 

 

This weekend, some of my friends had a tropical party. Being the smartass that I am, I dressed as Captain Jack Sparrow from \Pirates of the Carribean."" The party was really fun, and everyone got really drunk, including myself. Ok I was so plastered I thought I actually was Captain Jack Sparrow. On the way home, my friends and I went to Taco Bell to grab some food. As soon as my order came up, I grabbed my food, ran to the center of the restaurant and proclaimed to everyone there, ""Ladies and gentleman! You will always remember this as the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow!"" I then proceeded to make ""pirate sounds"" and ran screaming onto State Street. 

 

Sincerely,  

 

Pirate Wannabe

Friday night, my friends and I decided to partake in a good old-fashioned game of Edward 40-Hands. For those of you who don't know, you tape two 40 oz. cans of beer to your hands and cannot take them off until you finish drinking. Usually I'm pretty good, but I was really worn out from a late night the night before. Long story short, my roommates found me asleep the next morning on the couch, with the 40s still attached to my hands. Thank God I did not have to go to the bathroom. 

 

Sincerely,  

 

Beer Beaten 

 

 

 

Dear Hangover ~ 

 

The Saturday following the Indiana game, I was out with some of my girls. One of my roommates is an athlete, and she really wanted to go to the KK (Kollege Klub) so we all went. I was hanging out drinking and having an awesome time when I was approached by a pretty well-known member of the football team. I thought he just wanted to dance, but out of nowhere he immediately propositioned that I go home with him. Completely offended, I told him that was ridiculous since he did not even know my name. To my surprise, he was able to tell me my full name. While I'm really impressed that he was able to recite more than one word at a time, I told him, ""Sorry, I don't go home with man-whores."" 

 

Sincerely,

UW-Madisonians: 

 

Stand up for yourself in bars 

 

No matter the person's rep 

 

And leave strange hands and pirates
