I totally end up needing to pee during a movie. Usually because I also have an enormous soda and those things don't go together well.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've never been able to pee on request, not even after a palatable number of cups of water and within a reasonable amount of medical wait time, so the idea of making that transition in 150 minutes is foreign to me.

GOOD LORD, DOCTOR'S OFFICE. HOW MUCH LESS INFORMATION CAN YOU GIVE ME?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Going to the movies with other people throws me all off, because by myself, I have the routine down: Get there early, go to the bathroom, go to concessions, sit. Then usually I make it through the movie.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

OMG, now I'm remembering AIT, when we all got woken up for a piss-test, except that I'd woken up early to pee, and then was unable to go for the important bit. I had to keep drinking water throughout the morning until I could (all alone, abandoned by my entire company who'd peed like normal people) and hours later the sergeant had remarked upon how I'd had the clearest pee she'd ever seen.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I almost always get the large soda for a movie and rarely have to pee during. At work I feel like I run into my managers in the bathroom more than I see them in their offices or my cubicle or whatever. Like, me and my senior manager are on the same afternoon bathroom schedule, which is odd, but I am trying to get used to it.

I drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, but I am thirsty when I do it (I just keep track because, uh, I keep track of a lot of things, okay? And I have absent-mindedness problems with going to get a drink of water and getting distracted and doing something else and then not being able to figure out why I am still thirsty, and somehow the keeping track helps with that).

I had to stop reading that article or else I would have gone out to buy a gun.

Maybe gay people are God's way of giving hope to kids that heterosexual people fuck over when they ditch them (not that I think that, but it seems as valid as D-bags arguments).

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I admittedly drink a lot of water. Like at least 4L a day, minimum. The thing is, I can tell if I don't. My skin acts up, my lips get chapped, and I get headaches and muscle aches.

The rest of my fluid intake is pretty much 2 glasses of juice, a can of soda and a pot of coffee or tea. And booze, but that varies wildly.

Also, I'm a camel.

Dieting tip from our new tech guy: drink cold water. The very act of our body warming up ice cold water to body temperature so that it can digest it burns calories, apparently. The tip about eating celery was futile, though, since I have to eat it with either cream cheese or ranch dressing negates any negative calorie benefits.
