Hellraiser Day
Once upon a time my girlfriend Clare and I were very hungover. We were so hungover it was a bit silly. I quickly started thinking of ways to take away the pain.
After the first triple whiskey the shaking stopped but the mental anguish still remained. The terrible icy claws of alcohol still firmly gripped the soft vulnerable flesh of my mind, squeezing out all sense of joy and happiness(yes we did drink that much) Something had to be done.
I came up with the fancy idea of watching one of my favorite films, ‘Hellraiser’. Figuring that if we watched something truly terrifying and horrific we could say ‘Well, at least things aren’t as bad as that!’.
My plan worked.
Our hangover was indeed not as bad as having four extra-dimensional beings from hell tormenting our souls for all eternity and tearing us apart with chains and that.
Thus the term ‘Hellraiser day’ was born.
Today…is a Hellraiser day.
