That's a given, but even on a work night, I can muster enough energy to plow through six drinks... I don't know, maybe I'm just cruised out... It’s possible that alcohol affects you differently now than it once did. It’s something to consider. I used to be able to party like a crazy person, but no more. I wake up at 2 a.m. and lay awake for hours. I’ve toned it down quite a bit. How alcohol can affect your mood? Alcohol is a depressant: it alters the delicate balance of chemicals in your brain. As you sip your first drink, the alcohol starts to affect the part of the brain associated with inhibition. That’s why a drink sometimes makes you feel more confident and relaxed. But, some people ask themselves, after I drink alcohol I feel depressed. This is because as you drink more, something different can start to happen. Once your brain has high levels of alcohol affecting it, it’s possible the pleasant effects of your first drink will be replaced by negative emotions such as depression, anxiety or anger – even if you were in a good mood when you started drinking. Really have enjoyed your review, your wit, and appreciate the time you’ve put into taking us along on your trip. 🙂 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted December 3, 2021 Author #1327 Share Posted December 3, 2021 I believe that I may have just set the all time sleeping record while cruising... A little over twelve hours just last night. I had considered getting up to watch the sun rise, but then I just rolled over, and next thing I knew, it was shining brightly. Down at Bar Della Rosa for my "usual" large black Americano coffee... Let's see if I can salvage whatever's left of the day, as well as the cruise. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted December 3, 2021 Author #1328 Share Posted December 3, 2021 I was going to stop by guest services for some one dollar bills, but there's only one person working, and a line twenty people long. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted December 3, 2021 Author #1332 Share Posted December 3, 2021 In order to get back here without wearing a mask, you have to go up the stairs one floor above the buffet, then walk to the back on the outer deck. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted December 3, 2021 Author #1333 Share Posted December 3, 2021 The last chicken and egg biscuit of the cruise... I may eat the regular chicken sandwich for lunch today.

Rare sid_9169 Posted December 3, 2021 Author #1334 Share Posted December 3, 2021 This guy must be the lifeguard. He's standing there, watching carefully, but there isn't a single person in the pool or hot tub. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted December 3, 2021 Author #1335 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Man, something ate me up in Roatan the other day. It started out as a tiny red dot, but now it itches like heck... More on my other leg, and a couple on my arm. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beards have emailed me and they have decided to no longer change the name of the wiki wiki to the Megan. Their reasoning is that once a drink is named after you, you are relegated to only drink at that bar. You have broken the implied contract and now must suffer the embarrassment when you sail on Carnival again. 😉 I always mess things up. 🤦🏼♀️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted December 3, 2021 Author #1344 Share Posted December 3, 2021 I wanted to check out the hot tub one last time, so I headed up to Serenity, but there were already people in both of them. I checked out a towel, then went down to Summer Landing, where one of the two hot tubs was vacant. Sat there for about twenty / thirty minutes, then got out to try and catch some sun, since it's my last chance. I'm signed up for some kind of cocktail making class at Alchemy at 12:20, and no plans between now and then. I guess that I'll take a shower, then go down to the casino and get some one dollar bills... It's the final big day on board, and I have a lot to make up for... 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted December 3, 2021 Author #1345 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Last chance to enjoy all that the Mardi Gras has to offer. I like this huge window out to the sea, but it's closed most of the time for the performance stage. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
