Wilted Lettuce

After ordering belated Christmas cards @ Costco and sitting in the car on a Wachovia+Wells Fargo conference call... I thought I was going to die. My body felt like it was full of termites, eating away at its integrity. And then I realized. It was 2pm and I had not had a SIP of water all day. Aha! My suspicion was correct: Dehydration is indeed the root of all evil. Three glasses later, I am chipper and only mildly depressed. God bless the sea.
