Water in the Brain

Today started the final week prep.  One of the things I was supposed to do was drink 2.5 gallons of water each day for the next four days.  That is a LOT of water.  Well, I started the day trying to do just that, but toward the end of the day started to have a headache.  I emailed a doctor friend of mine to see if this was normal.  He said, "No" and that I needed to go get some Gatorade to drink right away in order to increase my electrolytes.  I don't think my body is large enough to drink 2.5 gallons so I am going to decrease that number.

I remember not too long ago a women died from drinking too much water while trying to win a contest on the radio.  The competition is not that serious.  I do cherish my life.  I really wanted to come home and relax in the bathtub, but the thought of seeing anymore water makes me sick!!!
