T and I

I can't believe she did this.

She guzzled a 2 litre bottle of Welch's Grape soda in under two days.

She could've had plain, cool, tap water to quench her thirst.

Tap water? T speaks of tap water as though it were mere raw material, not edible (potable rather) till "cooked"--into ice-water, iced-tea, soda, juice.

It's too primary to be had.

Yet, once upon a time, I did reach out simply to the water flowing from the tap and either filled a tumbler, or the cup of her hand.

T would shudder at the vision of the latter.
