straws

This is the one rule that I was given that I don't follow.  I was told no straws and followed that for several months.  One day I used one without thinking, actually, and didn't have any problems.  Since then I use them on a regular basis.  In fact, I drink all my water at work from one of those insulated Starbuck glasses that has the straw.  It just hasn't been an issue and I just don't like keeping an open container at my desk.  I'm too clumsy and spill way too often! lol
