So I am sitting in our managers meeting today, sitting across from my partner whom I share an office with. I grab my green Gatorade bottle and squeeze some water in my mouth and put the bottle back on the table. Now the whole time I am doing this I am looking at my business partner and notice his complete attention focused on the bottle.
As I put the bottle back down, we make eye contact and I smile at him, but instead of smiling back he waves me in to whisper something to me. I figure he wants to mention something about Gatorade or comment on the meeting.
He says to me, "Do you know how many F-ing sports bottles of yours I had to move this morning to get my sh*t done..five." I just about fell down laughing it was so funny. Why you ask? Mistress said the exact same thing, almost verbatim, last night.
I guess I have a dozen or more bottles; one in each running belt I have collected (3), gatorade bottles (4), a bunch for the bike, always keep one in the car, a couple of nalogens, oh yeah I generally use them for liquid around the house so Mighty Mo or the puppy don't spill its contents all over the floor horsing around. So yeah a dozen is about right.
They are in the sink soaking, on the desk or counter airing out. On the floor half full around my desk. I guess I need to work on that huh?

Now see, I'm thinking that's a great way to make sure you drink enough water. Especially given your tendancy to workout in extreme heat. Sounds like a good thing to me. I may actually have to pick up some more bottles...
Heh. I'm convinced that water bottle multiple by themselves during the night when nobody is looking. I have an entire cupboard full of em.
Wow... I have to search for all mine in CB's bedroom, her playroom, the sandbox, under the sofa... she always like my water bottles over the sippy cups!
Same problem here. I sometimes think that folks I work with think I like to go to the bathroom a lot just to goof off. :)
My wife has started throwing some of my old bike water bottles out!
The horror...sometimes I go looking for one and it has disappeared!
I don't throw away her shoes...and trust me there are many more shoes in the house than water bottles!
Good point flatman! Same problem here. How many black pairs of shoes does a woman need!?!?! Shouldn't you need like one color each?
