    can’t sleep without a cup of cool water on the night stand. when I remember to do it I rarely use it, but when I forget it, every fucking time, I have to get up and go downstairs.

      Can’t sleep without my sleeping eye mask on and water on my nightstand.

        Ditto on both checkmarks.
        Also a white noise fan on.

            Or a door ajar and a standing fan just outside, facing out, keeping the air flowing out of the bedroom.

      I’ve heard people say that San Francisco, California has some of the best tasting tap water in America, which is good for me since I live there.

        Water from the Sierra Nevada, probably.
        They same the same about New York tap water, which comes from the Catskill Mountains a little bit upstate.

    I always go to bed with a half-frozen bottle of water on the night table, just in case, but seldom need it, and a factor to consider is waking up again later needing to go to the bathroom.

    However, last night, for some unknown reason (maybe dinner was saltier than usual) and for the first time in weeks, I woke up with a dire need for a huge gulp of ice-cold water, and there it was.

    The moral of the story is, it is better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.

    I had this experience. Turns out it was diabetes.

    I keep a 64 oz thermal water bottle at my side. Awake or asleep. I generally wake up enough times with dry mouth to mostly drain a half gallon thermos of ice water overnight. Sometimes I have to refill it around 4 or 5 am before I get up at sunrise. My bedroom window faces East, so I tend to get up with The Sun.
