i don't like the taste of straight water
I do drink water, but in order for me to get past the taste, I have to "put my mind aside" for a moment, then chug it. The only time I don't have to do that is on really hot days where getting water in my system is more important than the taste of it.

i wish i knew about neti pots years ago
The older I get, the more I learn about stuff.
It didn't take long after 2025 began before I got my first cold of the year, and I have a standard list of things I do to make dealing with that easier. This is stuff I wish I knew when I was younger, but better late than never.
my ups and downs with usb
