I am hung over this morning. Well, it was Easter yesterday, and it seemed like tradition to indulge a bit last night as I watched Leo McGarry’s funeral.
I had some SweeTart Jelly Beans.
As my aunt says, these are the crack of jelly beans.
I wracked my brains this morning — although gently, as they were in pain — trying to figure out what was causing my headache. I had one half glass of wine with dinner, so that wasn’t it. It might be the change in weather — today is sunny, but still chilly. And then I realized that there was one common theme whenever I wake up with this kind of hangover headache: sugar.
I think that too much sugar is the cause of these headaches, either from too many addictive jelly beans or too much high-sugar wine.
So, like any other drug, sugar has left me crashing from a high, miserable all morning.
What’s next? Guys moaning in a back alley, woozy and penniless, begging for just one more handful of jelly beans?
I’m off to find some aspirin.
