I too have just recently learned this lesson. You see before I never used to drink any water only soda pop, then it came to my attention that I might be severely dehydrated because of my eating habits. So, thinking I'm smart (yet still unwise) I thought "there must be a way to get re hydrated quickly, like using an IV or something..."
The universe responded quite well and efficiently, by giving me diverticulitis (an intestinal problem), well, today is my 7th day in the hospital, getting IV fluids for 7 days straight (along with antibiotics and stuff). Now my muscles feel re hydrated, but it wasn't exactly what I had in mind.
I will be using more caution and more respect for these forces in the future...
