It just dawned on me! My problem is drinking. I have a drinking problem! I drink way too much water. Everyday I get to the closing moments before it becomes tomorrow with a nagging feeling that i didn’t quite get enough done.
It’s noon right now and I’m in the middle of some important stuff. There is a stinging pain that is compelling me to get up and walk to a designated room for relief. I don’t want to stop what I’m doing but I have read some studies that say that such pain isn’t to be ignored ; )
The thing is, I have to drink a lot of water because I get severe dryness in my throat a lot—Not good for singing! To keep moist, I usually try to drink about five 24oz Starbucks cups full of iced water per day and then I add 1 for every cup of coffee.
This is the real problem. For every cup of water, there is 2 trips. So its noon and I am about to head in that direction for the 4th time this morning. That’s why I can’t get anything done. I spend my whole day in route to and from appliances that dispense or expend water.
Solutions anyone. Here are some things the people around me have suggested: Cough drops instead of water. Nope. Change singing style to Chad Kruger’s rasp (Nickel Back). Nope. And then there’s the Catheter.
Heck Nope! What do you suggest?
