Umm...I would (this is just me) Just call her up and say, you know, "Hi, this is Zac, I just really thought I should call and apologize for being an ass last night. I really like you alot, and I just don't want your opinion of me to be lowered based on one night. That wasn't how I am normally...Oh, my head...." (Throw that last bit in for some sympathy ;-))

Oh, good, then. One night? Should be no emotional attachment right? you guys aren't best friends or anything ( I know you like her, but, you know, other fish and all that.) just move on... things like this have a way of working themselves out, even if you don't take an overly proactive role. Don't push too hard, I suppose would be the best idea. *shrug* then again, I you're talking to a 25-year-old divorced male with a gaming addiction and an aversion to commitment.

Maybe she has some emotional attachment to you, but doesn't want to tell you?
She could've been that way b/c she was hoping you'd feel the same for her, too?

Drink lots of water and listen to some relaxing music. The music is to keep your mind off your discomfort until the water rinses all the crap out of your body.

I've got a hangover cure that's always worked for me. It's a little too late for you to use some of it but remember it next time.

First thing you should do, make sure you eat plenty and drink lots of water before you start drinking. There's nothing worse then drinking on an empty stomach.

Next step, get drunk. I think you can handle that part all right.

Part three, before you pass out, chug as much water as you can. Also eat something, it doesn't have to be anything specific, just get soemthing in your stomach. Fast foods fine if you're stomach can take it, if not I recommend waffles or something similar.

Get as much sleep as you can, sleep is the best cure, but you don't always have the time you need.

When you get up in the morning, chug some more fluids. Gatorade is even better then water I think at this point.

Eat some food, the healthier the better, when I wake up hungover I usually make some quick scrambled eggs, a bagel and lots of orange juice.

The trick is that alchol throws your body out of wack, and so you want to try and help it reurn to noraml as quickly as possible. You also want to eat foods that will provide your body with plenty of energy to burn off an residual alchol.

My trick, which works great at the many SCA events where wine, mead, and distilled spirits flow freely, is to make sure you have bread and/or cheese to nibble on as you drink.

I have never woken up with a hangover at an SCA event, thanks to this trick.

of course, some say I was still drunk.... ;)

Hangovers are largely caused by dehydration, so your best bet is to chug water, both before you go to sleep and after you wake up. Aspirin or Tylenol will take the edge off the pain, but water will cure the problem. Eat something in the morning if you can to settle your stomach. Other than that, just wait--I've found you can cure the headache and the muscle aches fairly easily, but the general blah feeling will stick around most of the day.

I wouldn't recemomend pain killers, your liver is already working hard to clean your body out, you don't want to give it more to do. Defintely not healthy for you.

When I was in college, I would eat 2 peanut-butter sandwiches and drink water until my eyeballs floated. Then I would drink. In the morning, I would drink about 3 glasses of grapefruit juice.

Yes, grapefruit juice. Nasty I know, but when I've done the above, I've never gotten a hangover.
