Yesterday I woke up with a headache.
Last night, I realized that the only liquids I've put in my body in the last three days are coffee & diet coke.
And I'll just put a heavy emphasis on coffee. (As in, a friend came over to visit, and I was so caffeinated that I couldn't sit down or speak a complete sentence.)
In an attempt to remedy that, I
It (the water) tasted like I had left it outside all day in the hot sun, marinating rubber bands in it. So obviously, this morning, I woke up with a taste in my mouth like I had spent the night outside chewing on my tire.
I instantly regretted it, as the taste refused to go away even after brushing. Then I thought,
I wonder if something was wrong with that water...
I bet there was a boil notice and I didn't see it...
I bet it had anthrax in it...
That's absurd...
I'm probably just going to get bacteria in my stomach...
If something happens to me, my children will never be made to brush their teeth again...
Then I took a step back and looked at myself in disbelief. Something is wrong with you, I told myself.
Then I thought,
It's probably more likely, that it has been so long since I've had a glass of water, that I've just forgotten what water tastes like.
Perhaps all water tastes like rubber bands...
