: Good solution, though maybe "indulge myself", u zavisnosti od konteksta.

: 'Indulge' se koristi više kad se neko celosno prepušti onome što želi da uradi, a ne samo kad malo od toga proba. Nekad za nešto malo se koristi 'whet the appetite', 'scratch the surface' ali u ovom primeru sa vodom nije baš primenljivo

Example sentence:
Humor me thus means indulge me—in the sense of gimme some slack or gimme a break, but less aggressive than these. It is used most often as an appeal, at once gentle and ironic, to an interlocutor who interrupts one\'s discourse; it means, approximately,
Discussion
vezano za whet your appetite
ma_nau, you have a point sto bi rekli,
