ME!
Actually, I usually sit down to shave my legs, and then hang out down there just enjoying the water while I deep condition my hair. :)

Grown up or no, I still have a fleet of little floating ships. There are epic battles. The pirates always win.

*sniff*

I want a shower!



*grin* For YEARS, all I wanted was INDOOR PLUMBING and RUNNING WATER!
But you can do a decent bath type thing with a kiddie pool and some water heated on the woodstove. :)

For now, I have a tub for the kiddo (he does bubbles and Batman toys, mixing the fizzies and stuff) and showering for me, where I THINK too much and save the singing for in the car on the way to work.

I think up political talking points I would use if I were running for president. They're usually very pointed and, well, angry. If only I remembered to write them down after got out...

Sure I could do with a good diving buddy :) I once ventured too close to the plug and almost went down with the whirlpool! Luckily a submerged ship went in first and eased the pull. I then swam away to safety :D

Close call.

Whoa! Good Tub!

I used to wonder why it was so loud in the shower, like someone yelling. Then I realized it was my inner voice. Once I started listening to it, it quit yelling. And I most always remember to rinse the shampoo out now.

Bath time is the fight I have with my 13 year old, 100 pound disabled daughter. She screams "No Bath" until I finally get her in through a series of manuvers. Then, when it is time to get out, she screams "No, not Done. No out." Sometimes bath time can last really, really long. I do Sudoku.



There's no place I can be since I found serenity.

Ah, yeah. Major point. :) LOL
I also think there will be industrial-strength screens on my windows!

I'm a shower-type person. All my best plot bunnies hit when I'm in the shower. I like talking through them.

However, in the bath I have just about every product Lush has ever made. It's all about the relaxing and the pampering.

Me, too! It's a terrible habit I've developed. Usually it's because I'm still not awake and don't want to expend the energy in standing. I like to lean over and let the water run down my back. Though, it tends to double my shower time.

And I wonder why I'm always rushing to get ready in the morning?

As for baths: I stop the holes in the drain thing so I can fill it all the way up so that I can't move or it'll overflow and then I read and listen to something soothing. And when it starts to cool off, I drain some water and add more until I'm too pruney to stand it or I finish my book.

And my cat likes people soup, too! He'll sit on the edge of the tub and lick the water off my arms if I let him in the bathroom.
