I don't have a mug, but I used to have a special water bottle until I lost it. It was a big 32 oz hydro flask I found at a golf course in Florida. It was covered with the most generic "white girl in her 30s trying to live her best life" set of stickers I had ever seen. Like dolphins and starfish and a sticker of a wine bottle that said "its wine o'clock somewhere".
It was an amazing find, a true cultural artifact... I wish I hadn't lost it, it was a great water bottle.
I can only hope the circle of life has continued for that truly special water bottle. Maybe a 20 something gym rat has found it and now fills it with protein powder every day on his way to a workout. Or a blue haired liberal carries it with her on her way to the weekly stop-the-patriarchy meetings.
