When I wish for someone to do something they consider unpleasant or undesirable, and they wish for me to do something that I find unpleasant or undesirable - I suggest a compromise.

They want to have fun and play. You want to go to work without a hangover. Both are reasonable - what are you willing to give up to get what you want? Every morning during the weekdays, for instance, I spend between thirty minutes to an hour reading to a little from her collection of children's books. I don't know if I've come to enjoy it because it's pleasurable to hear her purr in the background or because the rest of my day goes so smoothly - but it is not only no longer a sacrifice of my time but something I enjoy doing for someone whom I've come to love and cherish.

I couldn't read to her if I had a horrible hangover. Wonder if that has anything to do with why I've been sober now for 8,869 days...
