on the bench
Congrats and welcome to the bench! I remember that feeling - by the time I was allowed to drink, I was so thirsty that I wanted to chug as much water as possible. It's so hard to limit it like that. Just make sure you're drinking something every 15 minutes, and the crazy thirst should go away soon!

Silly question, but are you allowed to chew ice at all? That might help?
