Are you a "desk" drinker....not alcohol related

[spindle92]

Whenever I am at my desk, I must have something to drink in front of me. Water, pop, hot chocolate, whatever it may be.

But if I am not sitting down at my desk, I am fine. I do not need a bottle of something with me at all times.

Is anyone else like this?

[ECB]

Yes. I usually have something to drink. I may not drink a lot of it during the day (like my bottle of water), but it's always there.

And no, in other situations, I don't usually need a drink.

[starrieskies]

I need something at my desk and in my car at all times. Even if I don't drink very much of it, I just have to have it there.

[neonpink]

Yes, I'm currently reading this while drinking water. I find that I drink more water while at work then on the weekends.

I am out of diet coke at my house right now and it is killing me. I think I'm going to go to the gas station and buy an insanely large diet coke in a few minutes. I love having drinks at my desk but Ido have to be usuper careful because my desk usually has a wedding dress on it too. (My desk is at my house so sometimes it is alcoholic...)

I used to make myself be one. Because I'm bad at drinking water and other liquids regularly. So I'd make myself always drink something, and also used coffee as a reward for drinking enough water. I had a scheduled afternoon coffee and cookie break with my coworker bf at 3pm so I'd up my water before that.

Same here.

I won't tell on you if you don't tell on me.

I have to...I'm usually at my desk from 7 am until anywhere from 5-7 pm, including lunch. I wouldn't get anywhere near enough to drink if I didn't drink at my desk. It's usually 1-2 travel mugs full of decaf tea in the morning and a liter or so of seltzer in the afternoon. I usually drink another big glass of water in the evening, too.

spindle92, the apartment next door to mine is open. You can move in next door to me and we can do afternoon, work from home, cocktails!

[gault]

I usually have two or more varieties in front of me. Water and coffee, water and tea etc

[Deleted]

I have water or coffee with me all the time.

[margarita]

Yes. I always have a glass of water at my desk.

[kaneen]

Yep. Water at my desk at all times. I have a 16oz tervis tumbler that I keep at work. I refill that bad boy probably once an hour. So once an hour, I also pee

[cuddlyevil]

I'm happy you were specific. There are days here where booze seems to be the only option.

I usually have coffee, tea or water with me at all times.

[partiallysunny]

Yep. Water, coffee, or tea.

[exploding people]

Water always. Sometimes tea as well.

[SwimDeep]

If I don't have water with me when I sit down at the desk to work/study, I usually won't drink anything until I'm done with whatever I'm doing. I've been doing much better lately about not letting myself sit down until I have a full (24oz) cup of water with me.
And unsweetened iced tea in the afternoons (or a diet coke...or straight vodka if it's been 'that' kind of a day).

[sillygoosegirl]

I am reading and responding to this thread trying to keep myself alert enough to down a few glasses of liquid, because I think my inability to fall asleep tonight has to do with dehydration.

I don't drink as much as I should at my desk, and I often get sidetracked and forget to refill my glass, but when I'm not at my desk, it's worse.
