I drink a lot of water. Not counting my morning coffee it is all I drink at home. I easily drink a gallon a day. If I drink tap water, I get a headache. It doesn't taste particularly bad, just a little harder than bottled water. I don't know why, and if I only drink a bit, it is fine, but if I drink my normal intake from the tap, I get a headache. Every time. The same amount of bottled water, no headache.

It isn't any tap water either, I drank tap water (from her well) when visiting my mom in Oklahoma, no problems at all. Water from my in-laws house in Nevada has also been OK, but I don't think I drink as much water there as I do at home.
