Where'd She Go?
Mostly, I just slept. (It was a severe bout of Hangover Anxiety.) Now, now! Before you start saying that I'm making light of a serious mental health issue - I'm not joking. It's a real thing . You can deny it all you want, but the D&A* Brain just doesn't like alcohol as much as we do. It was only after my terrible week that I connected the dots.
