Screwdriver for now. My "Check Liver Light" finally came on after I stayed up until 630 last night. Last full day. Pool time.
There was a nineteen-year-old in the pool yesterday that was BOXED. I grabbed him and said "come with me before your family sees you." I started filling him up with water and talked to him while he recovered. Everyone thought he was my little brother. I told them I'd never seen him before. Just hoped someone would do the same for me.

You are getting me pumped up for my Cubs/Vegas trip. The stuff that happens at the Flamingo pool is quite amusing.

One more full day tomorrow. I think tonight will have to be a maintenance night. Ten hours of sleep in three days is catching up.

I've been living in a different world since the start of June.

These drunken delights have delightful ends.

I'm sitting here recapping this trip in my head so I don't forget too much. While it seems like mostly drinking, we did a ton of other stuff. I've never gone snorkeling or swam in a cave. The dinners were spectacular. Even with all of the consumption, I lost about five pounds. Swimming every day and walking about 40,000 steps will do it. I slept out on the beach for two nights right by the ocean to see the sunrise. I just know my audience and figured the drinking stories and me wandering around the complex every night would be of more interest.
On that note. One day we arrived in the pool after an excursion. I started hanging with some people around the swim up bar and see something potentially unfortunate happening. There was a nineteen-year-old, wearing his polo in the pool, trying to hit on girls. I did not know it at the time, but apparently he'd been doing shots all day. I watched him take a break to collect himself. As he does it, I see him kind of falling in the water, head submerged a couple times. I slowly walked over, gave him a little tug on the polo, and told him he's coming with me. I sat him down and started pumping water into the lad while I talked to him. Tried to give him about 20-30 minutes to start to revive. I tried to see if there was someone to take him to his room, but now he wanted to party with his new friend Drop In. That wasn't happening, and luckily his sister arrived around that time. But he'd already made another impression at the bar for the last five minutes. As he was stumbling his way out of the pool, about twenty people at the swim up bar started chanting his name. Then he got pulled out of the water by his mom. When the crowd started chanting "Corey's Mom, Corey's Mom!" she gave a little wave. That was awkward. Someone asked if my brother was OK. I said "I don't know him, I just didn't want him to die."
I saw him a couple days later and of course he had no recollection of the experience. I just figured I'd like for someone to do the same. He'll probably be the CEO of a tech company and I'll see him on CNBC in a couple years.

Sounds like you had a blast. For our family vacations, we usually do nice resorts, so I don't see a ton of the drunken craziness even though I am passing out shortly after dinner from all the drinking in the heat and sun. We have been going with other couples to really enhance the experience.
Where I do see a lot of what you describe is on my summer trips to Vegas. We purposely hang out at the Flamingo pool where it always gets crazy. We see them carrying people out who are sun burnt from passing out on lounge chair or face planting on the concrete. I have seen chicks making out, my friend trying to finger a 60 year old lady and getting rejected, being stalked by a large breasted Canadian lady, getting sexted weeks after my trip (I don't give my number out anymore), ended up in a condo of two women claiming to be witches as my buddy was trying to bang one, among dozens of others wild stuff. We always meet fun people and end up hanging out for several days and often after the pool closes.
