-as of [25 JULY 2024]

-a [water cluster] is a discrete hydrogen bonded assembly or cluster of molecules of [water]-

.

(these clusters have been found experimentally or predicted in silico in various forms of water; in ice, in crystal lattices and in bulk liquid water, the simplest one being the water dimer (H2O)2)

(ongoing academic research is important because the realization that water manifests itself as clusters rather than a isotropic collection may help explain many anomalous water characteristics such as its highly unusual density temperature dependence)

(water clusters are also implicated in the stabilization of certain supramolecular structures)

(chemists still do not have sufficient understanding of how water forms hydrogen bonds with its neighbors in ‘bulk water’)

6 april 2015:

(now i get my water from a new jersey motel bathroom sink)

i’m still drinking tap water from the motel bathroom sink…
(in the same vitamin water bottle i’ve had all month)

milk and water

bagels 4 u breakfast
(with vitamin water)
(sesame with cream cheese this time)

(too much dairy?)
(and lots of water)

lots of water

water bottle is starting to smell/taste like snot..
(time 4 a new one!)

then passed out
(only waking up for ice water)

(i was in dire need of liquid so i got a large peach snapple and a tropical citrus vitamin water)

(which i will now use for a water bottle)

spent over $7 on everything bagel w/ cream cheese + everything bagel w/ lox cream cheese
(and tropical citrus vitamin water)
(@ manhattan bagel)

(young hispanic men running the counter)

(they don’t refill the iceboxes nor the water jug!)

scuba gave me a poland spring bottled water this morning as he watched his nature documentaries

2 pizzas and a pack of bottled waters (with a snickers bar and gum)

finished off the grape juice
(back to water)

2 june 2014:

more jersey motel tap water…

what is the structure of water anyway? maybe brian wilson would know. he’s probably just not telling us…

(cue beach boys’ “cool cool water” from the unfinished ‘elements’ smile suite)

“aqua”
(latin for “water”)

“agua”
(spanish for “water”)

*cue uncle tony and his refrigerated plastic jugs of water during childhood sleepovers*

in brick, shawn damkani (ever paranoid) filtered his tap water
(though his filter was defective, filthy, and much too slow!)

besides, the ice cubes in the freezer weren’t filtered…

and the water jugs in brick likely weren’t cleaned in years!

me, i don’t “DO” dishes!  that was always a job for the old man (ever servile)…

now i rely on paper plates.  i’m a destroyer of trees (which take up too much space anyway…i don’t care what their alleged ‘benefits’ for the environment are)

in brick, i began putting the water jug in the refrigerator (just like uncle anthony used to do) rather than sit around and wait for the ice cubes to freeze…

the quenching of thirst is better than sex…

me being a “pre-emptive” drinker of water, i hardly ever experience this pleasure…

mama brings me a 24-pack of 16.9floz nestle bottled water…
(better than tap water i suppose)

i should really put them in the refrigerator (or at least clean out the 14-cube ice container)

in princeton, i get my water from either the bathroom or kitchen sink…

there are 4 leftover “water filters” in the kitchen…but the “cleanest” water filter leaks…

(clean with ‘muriatic acid’)

now i’m thirsty…

(i’m thirsty every morning…)

(sweating in my bed every summer night)
