For [livejournal.com profile] k_sada and other animal lovers

To an eagle or to an owl or to a rabbit, man must seem a masterful and yet a forlorn animal; he has but two friends. In his almost universal unpopularity he points out, with pride, that these two are the dog and the horse. He believes, with an innocence peculiar to himself, that they are equally proud of this alleged confraternity. He says, 'Look at my two noble friends--they are dumb, but they are loyal.' I have for years suspected that they are only tolerant.

Apparently, I thirst.

I have literally lost track of how many Nalgenes of water I've had to drink today.

I've also lost track of how many times I've had to pee.
