Hangovers!
ViolentDove:
The gaul bladder of a sunbear is a pretty good hangover cure, too.

I know the exact same feeling. And I mean exact. New Year's Eve before last I was at one of my friend's parties, everyone got wasted, and I called the short straw and had to sleep on the floor because so many people were sleeping over and there just wasn't enough room. I basically had a pillow and a blanket way too small for me, I tried the carpet, the rug, the hardwood floors, the staircase and a wooden chair before I passed out on the bathroom tile cradling my pillow in my arms and face planted to the floor.
Speaking of, I'm drinking heavily this Saturday and I plan on not getting a hangover by setting a strict limit on the number of drinks for the night. Mine is 10, to know your own though, this information can only be found in experience, unfortunately. The best way to know your limit is by how much you weigh. The heavier or the taller usually have an ability to hold a little more before hitting their brownout/blackout/half-a-day hangover. Once you've got this limit, keep it! The more you drink the easier it is to keep downing them, try to focus on why you set that limit in the first place, drunken dancing is fun but downing one too many and performing a strip tease for everyone is hopefully enough to put the fear of god in most people.
Next I make sure I drink at least 3 cups of water before bed, though as much as one cup per drink you've had is ideal. On a side note this is why I don't like beer, it fills you up, makes you piss more and you won't want to drink the water, hard liqour makes me want a chaser and by god if it doesn't hurt so good.
Lastly if I know where I'll be sleeping that night I usually grab either a lemon/lime flavored soda or gatorade/powerade and have it chilled and ready in the morning. that and sunchips/corn chips/saltine crackers as an early morning breakfast of champions and it helps that slow creeping hangover that comes after you've woken up and started feeling dizzy as you go take your morning piss.
Professor Snuggles:
Until I stopped smoking, my hangover cure was to smoke a bowl while dumping out, hop in the shower, drink a cold beer while I let the water remind me that life is okay, then go hve a cigarette, coffee, hella water, and two fried eggs. A little work out to sweat the toxins is good too.
Boro_Bandito:
I think that actually might work, if nothing else just sticking to the routine would probably be therapeutic by keeping your mind off of being sick and instead moving to the next thing, of which a couple at least I know definitely work on their own.

i do not get hangovers myself but after a particularly heavy night of drinking on st.patrick's day, my boyfriend ended up with a massive hangover, and we tried to research hangover cures and taking vitamin c was the most sensible suggestion out of the bunch we found. i gave him vitamin c tablets with water, but just drinking orange juice would probably work as well. also, i am not sure about this greasy food business. i figure something bland that won't upset your stomach would be better.
