When I woke up this morning, there wasn't a trace of a hangover and I had an unusual amount of energy, getting up without any trouble at all.

I've had this occur to me a few times too. Usually when it has happened, it has been after a late night of fairly heaving drinking followed by a period (say, about 2 hours) of not drinking alcohol before going to bed. I always drink a couple of pints of water before going to bed after a night out. Water definitely helps with the headache, but what about the other symptoms like sore muscles and scattered thoughts?
My running theory is that the lighter sleep that alcohol causes can help you to wake up and stay awake at the right point in your sleep cycle, leaving you with next to no grogginess upon waking. Although I feel pretty good when this happens, I get very tired towards the end of the day, due to the insufficient sleep and the poisons still working their way out of my body.
