USA Today’s
snapshot showed that 32% of people showered in the morning and 89% showered at
night, before bed. I don’t know why people who bathe weren’t included. I feel
as though in order to bathe one needs the luxury of time. Some people light
candles, play soft music, drink wine and read a book. Just filling the tub
requires time and takes longer than the average shower. I wish a shower was a
pleasant experience for me, but it’s just a means to an end – getting clean.
When I’m in the shower I’m not fully engaged as my mind is somewhere else.
When you
shower in a hotel there’s always the fleeting, irrational thought you toss like
a piece of garbage – should I wear flip-flops? Because even though the shower
looks all clean and sparkly, we’re suspicious. Thanks to shows like Dateline or
Primetime we all know looks can be deceiving.
I think a
follow-up question to – when do you shower, should be – do you pee in the
shower? The people who pee in a pool are the same people who’ll pee in the
shower; people who don’t pee in a pool, won’t pee in the shower. This is why we
should pray for the little boy who pees in the shower and hope he doesn’t show
off what a good speller he is by writing his name on the wall. You’ll need more
protection than flip-flops can offer. I wouldn’t want to soak in a bath after
him.
