Someone's stolen my name!

I found a researcher calling herself Elentari*! U1944072
I was quite shocked, to tell the truth! The only convos she seems to have, though, are in BBC Movies, so I doubt they'll be any confusion.
Feel slightly wrong-footed though.

Feeling a bit the worse for wear...
Posted Oct 28, 2005
Just got back from Planet V, the big event put on by Vanbrugh College here at the good old University of York, and I'm feeling pretty weird.
I put this down to drinking. Not that I overconsumed, you understand. I had one Reef (Vodka and orange, alcohol content 5%) and a cocktail called a hairy naval (Vodka, Archers, Grenadine, Orange juice, alcohol content clearly a lot higher than expected). As I neared the end of my cocktail, I began to feel odd and the feeling persists as I write this. I felt wooly-headed, if that makes sense, and when I was standing up I didn't feel entirely stable - a bit wobbly in fact. I went for a quick walk with two friends which helped a bit, but I decided to leave the event and come back to my room since I still felt odd.
My question: is this drunkeness? I don't think so, since as far as I can tell this post is fully coherent so far. But is it one of the stages? I don't really know since the closest I've ever got to being frunk (before today) is having 2 vodka and oranges and 5 Reefs over a period of about 5 hours, but I had eaten. Then I got a headache and again didn't feel entirely stable.
Your thoughts?
I will post again tomorrow with how I feel then, but for now I'm off to drink lots of water.

University Researcher!

I hope you all noticed my shiny new University Researcher's badge!
I posted there asking if my Roman Britain entries would qualify for a retrospective badge - and what do you know, I got one!
