I know what you are all wondering following my drunk blogging of the Presidential debate, how bad was my hangover.
I had no hangover at all.
I have in fact never to had a hangover, though I did wake up drunk once, which was a bit disconcerting to put it mildly.
Some peculiarity in my metabolism and/or neurology that means that in the few hundred times that I have been drunk over the past forty some odd years, I have never had a hangover. (I figure 2-4 times a year, I do not drink that much)
Don't hate me because I'm hangover proof.
I put this down to genetics.
I know 4 people who don't get hangovers, and three of them are definitely of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry, and I am not sure about the religious and ethnic heritage of the 4th individual.
If you share this bit of biology, share it in the comments.
I will offer one warning to those so blessed, of the 4 people that I know, 2 are recovering alcoholics.
Without the prospect of a hangover, it appears that unrestrained behavior is more likely.
