One day…last week?…two weeks ago?…we’ll just say recently<\/i> and run with that<\/i>…Bob and I were having a conversation about my headaches—because I was having one—and he asked me how much water I drink during the day. I said, “Not enough.” Because it’s true. I don’t drink enough water daily. I forget. Because I forget…everything. My brain doesn’t work. We’ve been over this.<\/p>\n
Bob said I need some sort of alarm to go off every couple of hours to remind me to drink a glass of water throughout the day. Hmm…<\/i> It got me to thinking…does my phone have an alarm feature? I have no idea. I don’t use the thing. It’s a phone<\/i>—I avoid it like the damn PLAGUE<\/b>.<\/p>\n
So I started looking through the features on my phone. Lo and behold, it has alarms! (I really wasn’t that surprised. It’s not a fancy smart phone but it’s a semi-current piece of technology. It has features.) So I set up alarms to go off every two hours called “Water” starting at EIGHT AM<\/i>. And I used a sound clip of my very favorite Spartan<\/span><\/b><\/i> yelling so it’s impossible to ignore. And it’s obnoxious as all hell. And funny. Because hello? CABOOSE<\/i><\/b>.<\/p>\n However, at 8:00 on a weekend…not so funny. More like—“ShuddupCabooseNEEDMOARSLEEP!”<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n
