I do not enjoy ice water.  I much prefer room temp. water. I can drink it
much easier.  Also, I prefer to drink from a bottle I can suck  threw
rather than a glass. I don't know why, I just drink more when it comes
from the bottle.  Probably because sucking is a natural instinct where
drinking from a glass is a learned process.

I thought I was weird! But I agree on both counts. I prefer room temp. water
and I drink it from a sports bottle. It's much safer, too, since I seem to
have very poor control of my elbows!
