*walks in, clears throat, looks faintly sheepish*

So I've been slightly lacking in rails, lately. They have not been under me and I have not been on them. So I, er.

*toes at ground*

I've been drinking water today? And the headache I've had for a week has gone away and I'm able to form thoughts and I'm feeling better. Turns out that one cup of tea a day (if that) doesn't actually cut it, for me.

So I feel like an idiot.

:D

In my defense it's hard to come up with logical solutions to a problem when the problem is an inability to think logically.

I really have to come up with some way of reminding myself to drink. Who'da thunk that'd be a problem for me. ¬_¬

Oh honey. :;buys you big red pretty water bottle::

Yeah, my husband thinks he's a camel, too.

I write "DRINK!" on the back of my hand. But then, I belong to a profession where that sort of thing is considered pretty normal.

I'd probably have to write GIRLS! on the other hand, and then I'd get in trouble.

Likewise FECK!

It's just such an embarrassing thing to fail at. XD

If it helps, I'm making cute!turtle face at the screen, right now. *squishes you*

I carry a water bottle (at least 500ml, usually 750ml) with me EVERYWHERE or I don't drink. (It's not just I forget, I have a life long battle against hating the action of drinking due to childhood stuff. Don't even ask.) And somehow I mind drinking out of a bottle way less. And because it's with me I drink sometimes without even noticing I'm doing it. It is of the win.

Hee! &YOU;

I can't go more than half an hour without drinking water and if I try I tend to fall over. :/

Heeeeh! You could get a little tattoo of Father Jack on the inside of your wrist, and then every time you looked at him you'd be reminded to drink.

I mean, not everyone could pull off a tattoo of Father Jack, but I think you might be able to manage it. *considers* Just think of him staring benevolently drunkenly at your every action. He would watch you on the toilet, and in bed...

While I am a water drinker like whoa, my BFF is so not, and was shocked to learn that some of her lethargy and such was due, potentially, to not drinking enough water. She drank Coke or sweet iced tea all the time.

So she really had to force herself to drink water, and started by drinking a regular sized glass when she woke up and before bed, and bringing two 16 oz bottles with her to work to drink through the day. She actually found she liked drinking it (and probably too, the "feeling better" that came along with it). It was hard for her to develop the habit though.

I keep a large glass beside my computer to remind me. It works!

I fail at drinking too, with similar failtastic results.

You are not alone!

You could do what i did?
paint your nails Blue or with a cunnily disguised 'w' on the thumb where you will see it to remind you everytime you reach for a drink of somekind.

I have been cutting down on the 8 cups of daily tea (yeah i know!)and drinking small cups of water (cant manage big glasses)and im shocked its made such a diference to my alertness/skin/weight! too.
:D
