Hydration is Man's Best Friend

I am the worse when it comes to drinking my 8 glasses of water a day; but I am the best in reminding others to do so. Today however there was no need for additional moisture, no raining on our parade, no "headache" would hinder our play date.

With our glasses full of wants and needs, our play date started of as sweet as a warm indian summer, but our reptilian brains were quick to take control. While our hunger demanded we leave our minds and policitcal correctness behind, our familiarity guided our instincts. It's was a no holds-barred, all's fair, anything goes lover's passionate quarell to the finish line...just like it should be, just it always is, just how we like it. This time however there was a sudden squall that brought my prior day's preaching to a head, and just as her goal was accomplished and she reached the finish line after our marathon, Babe's leg developed a cramp. Although Babe completed the race and I received a DNF, (Did Not Finish), we both bursted out in laughter. My immediate response was, "This is going in my blog". We couldn't believe the timeliness of her leg cramp. (I take full credit!!!) We ulitmately just held each other as we joked and poked fun, talk about how much fun we have, how we are so much alike, etc...Babe ended up falling asleep in my arms.

There are many times we are reminded about the importance of replenishing our bodies' supply of water. Signs could be something as simple as a dry mouth, dry lips, headaches, etc... Sometimes our bodies do not cry out for hydration at all, or at the worse times imaginable they scream. ;) This is not only true of of bodies, but also of our minds and souls. When we are in need we must quench our thirsts. Regardless of who you are you are always needing just a sip or at times a full Gatorade drenching. We all thirst for love, attention, and sex...WE ALL DO. You mustn't wait for a sign like a poor pirate bride walking the shore awaiting her lover. For me I am one of the fortunate ones who's priate bride needn't wait. Tonight my body may not have completed the marathon, but my soul and mind came in first place. Two out of three ain't bad. Besides, I'll get mine, I'm sure of it... ;) The night ended for me with my girl in my arms and while I may still be thirsty don't fret. The ink's still wet in our lover's passionate quarell...we're not even close to done.
