Water and drinking

Apparently a mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen. OMG. I am chronically troubled with basic math and can’t clear the fuzziness from my short term memory.

Is it lack of water do you think?

But what about the water from my tap? Is it “safe” to drink? Should I buy bottled water?

If I start buying water in bottles I have to cut down on something else, like sausages, or bread. I live on the bare essentials now and reducing my food intake is surely going to cause more fuzziness in the brain department.

I’m worried now. Or maybe I’m just not thinking straight. Excuse me while I grab a glass of water.

Can you spare a dime for an old dame?

    My refrigerator has a filter, and I drink water from that. I also fill up some water bottles (Nalgene) and bring those to work. The water tastes funny there.

    A college professor once told me that humans are one of only two species that cannot taste water. If you can taste it it’s not water.
