I think I'm going to have to have to be a germophobe and not share waters and stuff from now on at festivals. I need to avoid post festival sickness.... this sucks. Hashtag adult sarah. You just need to be really good at pre and post-loading with all your vitamins etc. I shared plenty of things at Coachella and no post-festival sickness for me this time around. That, and I think I'll reduce my germ exposure.

This might be coincidence, but I had almost exclusively screwdrivers at Coachella...and for once I didn't get sick. I really think the extra vitamin c had some effect. That's what I keep telling myself anyway I was super run down going into coachella given that I was in stress grad school hell for about a month and a half straight prior, including a major statistis final on the Wednesday. I probably should have avoided all contact with other human beings and shared beverages, but I was too dumb to think about these things. Next time!

All the vitamins! I'm assuming it was a combo of Megatrons army of supplements and the fact I tapered off the drinking slowly (instead of a hard stop like I usually do) that helped me avoid the usual festival cancer.
And that was with double the amount of festival.

Hell yeah, I started taking Emergen-C and multivitamins daily before, during and after Coachella and this is the first year I haven't gotten Coachella cancer.

I think I'll stick to coconut water and green smoothies this festival season. I try to avoid supplements anymore. It's always a good idea to pack a travel size hand sanitizer.

Luckily I started going to festivals a few months after I finished school. I'd always get sick after exams since my body would be running on overdrive for weeks, and when it was all over it would just give up and let the germs have their way with me.
I shared everything with everyone and slept very little, so it has to be what I mentioned. I will definitely be bringing a whole bunch of vitamins to Sasquatch and having a few beers after the festival. With any luck I won't have to drive and then I won't even have to entirely sober up on the way back.

It's true, Nater is suddenly an adult it would seem. Let me introduce you to Stacey... I laughed out loud as well. I am not quite an adult yet, although I only play all day campground drinking games with light beer now, so almost. Also, I'm Stacey. Now we've been introduced.

Holy crap, you have been a boardie longer than me! Lurker cred confirmed.

I know. I figured since I know half the boarders in real life I would try out the internets again. I believe I may have the worst time on board to post count ratio.

I think it was Stacey humping me violently on the last night that gave me this head cold.
... but by that logic, Davers should have full blown AIDS.

I was somewhat indiscriminate in my violent final night humping. You probably all got head colds/AIDS from it.

I couldn't help myself after I borrowed that sexy tassled shirt of yours Nater. That shirt changed me.

Daver has it. It caused him to get day drunk the whole Monday drive to LA. The power of the shirt. It encourages bad decision making.
