I had a horrible day. I don't normally drink but I asked my husband to bring home something alcoholic. He brought Smirnoff. I'm a small person, about 5'3 and 100 pounds.. So is there ANY way I can numb this horrible, horrible day with 5% alcohol?
I don't need any snotty answers. This is a serious question.

about 3-4 of them in an hour should do it.

ok, getting a buzz and numbing are too separate things I think. I also don't think that 5% is going to do what you want. Well, maybe if you drink like a 6 pack of those. I DO hope that you found a better way of winding down. Figure out what made the day horrible and by all means work it out before Monday if you can so that you can have a better day. If it is something that you can not change, change your approach.
When you can change your situation, change how you react to it.

The cheapest alcohol that is usually very pure is vodka. It has no additives (congeners), which helps make hangovers more rare unless you just totally go overboard, and it can be mixed with anything as it has very little taste. You don't need to buy the expensive stuff, though maybe don't buy the bottom shelf varieties. If you want something that is high in alcohol but doesn't taste like it is, look for Rumple Minze, a type of peppermint schnapps. Personally, I'm a big fan of red wine. 2-buck-chuck, the two dollar wines from Trader Joe's, are a good bargain, and I find that I prefer the effect of red wine over hard liquor, but that's just me. If you like the taste of beer and want something that's very high in alcohol, try malt liquor. Malt liquor is relatively high in alcohol (higher than beer, anyway---closer to alcohol content of wine) and is usually doesn't cost much. Popular brands include Colt 45, Olde English 800, and Mickey's. Everclear (getting more difficult to find) is almost pure alcohol at 95% ABV, and Bacardi 151 Rum will knock your socks off. In high school we used to drink 151 with Sprite. Yuck. Keep this in mind, however: Alcohol poisoning caused by rapid ingestion of liquor can cause you to stop breathing, as in dead, kaput, the end. Oh, and don't drive after drinking. 'Nuff said.

Depends.
How often do you drink? I gather not much since you're asking the question. If true, that would make it more likely to provide a buzz.
How much do you plan to drink and over what time frame? More and faster generally yields a better buzz.
Why drink in the first place? I'll bet your husband can help you find other ways to unwind. My bride likes a nice hot soak in the tub, a glass of cold sparkling juice, maybe a candle or two, and all that followed up with a nice massage.

It's a Smirnoff ICE cooler. Maybe a little dizzy and sleepy.
You don't want to over indulge w/ smirnoff ice the hangover the next day will not be worth it.
You're better off w/ a few margaritas. Those will take the edge off and you only need a few.

Taking it on an empty stomach will get you that ooozy feeling pretty quick. But alcohol works different with different people.
It may make you feel worst than you already do.
If you take any kind of sugar with your drink it may taste better but it can give you a mild discomfort when you wake up tomorrow.
Having sufficient body fluids(water) in you will alleviate that problem.
Also taking aspirin with caffeine (Anacin) can also help you feel better.
I'm not an MD. But I sold liquor in retails sales for many years.

Don`t do that, get out there in this wonderful day and experience, and drink coffee. It will open your eyes. There is alot to experience, so don`t numb yourself. Try helping the underpriviliged or the very old, this will help, I know it will, it always helps me , when I have a really low day. Look at babies, they have a wonderful effect on everyone.
