Good luck. Hopefully you're able to sleep well.

Glad to hear it's calming down. Maybe it's a sign you should have something more to drink.

Definitely sounds like fun times. Sounds like it should be intense and hopefully you have a fun time torturing your bladder and inevitably losing control~

Not yet. Just wait a few more minutes and it will probably be free. Just try to relax and be patient. Think about how good it's going to feel when you can finally pee and let it all flow out~

Well lets hope a bathroom becomes available soon. Just hold on tight until then~

You can wait a little longer, right? How is your bladder feeling?

Fun. Lets hope you're able to enjoy it. Make sure you sip that margarita slow so you don't fill up too fast.

That's not a bad idea, although if you are tired maybe you should get some rest and try to hold tomorrow.

Good to hear you're filling up. And haha, yeah you might regret your plan to sip for each fastener. Looks complicated, but I'm sure there won't be anything distracting you too much as you put stuff together. 😛

Only 3 small glasses and you're already at a 5? You should try to drink at least 3 more glasses of water before you pee. And you can probably drink more than that.

I see. Well hey, trying to get your bladder all desperate and filled up is a good incentive to drink more, then. 🙂

Fair enough. Well at least that give a good justification to make your family not wonder about why you're drinking so much, which can also explain if you get a little squirmy. So that should give you at least a little wiggle room just in case you end up needing it. About how long has it been since you last peed?

Good luck with the hold! I hope it's fun. And you should try limiting your drinking and trying to fill up slowly.

I feel like the point of using 'they' as a gender neutral pronoun is because it's already so naturally part of how we speak. The singular use of they may seem a bit strange but if you think about it a bit more it's a pretty common way to use the word. For example, the sentence 'Ask someone if they could help' should be easy to understand and straightforward. Not a random example, by the way, that was the example sentence under the definition of they reading: "used to refer to a person of unspecified gender". So if you're saying 'they' is only plural I don't know what you're basing that on, because it's not the definition of the word. Also briefly looking at Wikipedia would suggest the singular use of 'they' has been around in English since the 14th century so I'm betting we've all run across it. It is totally valid to bring up that non-English speakers may have a harder time with this and that it may not be so intuitive. So it would be good to avoid getting too angry at people over things. There's rarely any benefit to getting angry at people over stuff online anyway. Lets just calmly inform people and move on. So, for example, 'it' may feel more intuitive but it's also the incorrect word to use in this context. They can be used singularly and has been used that way for a long while in the English language. Can we all agree to that?

I really like the detail of how the writing on their sign is getting wobbly as the days go on because of how much they're shaking.
