The shower is a sacred place. It is the land of thinking, standing, and (sometimes) waking up. The shower is one of my favorite places because I get a lot accomplished in there. Somethings are normal, but others are secret things no one admits to really doing. Here are some things everyone does in the show, whether they want to admit it or not.
1. Sing, and I mean SING.
It's the safe place to belt out the song you love to pretend you are a famous singer. You can pretend that you are actually singing credibly and that it sounds good. Hey, at least your pets appreciate it as they stand outside your shower.
2. Think about all the things you have to do.
You go through your mental checklist on all the things you have to do for the day or the next day. It's a time where I can mentally plan my day and not freak out (or freak out but in private).
3. Rehash or go over an argument but with better points on your side.
"UGH! I wish I had said this point or rephrased this." I always have mental arguments in the shower with the shower wall. I plan everything word for word, even my hand motions. I also plan papers, speeches, or rehearse lines in the shower. I seem to remember things well when I'm naked and warm.
4. Dance.
When I have my music playing in the shower, I can't help but dance. You can totally pretend you are shooting a music video with a shower scene. I feel comfortable to be sexy in there and I take full advantage of my dance time.
5. Lay down or relax for an obscene amount of time, effectively using up all the hot water.
I get so tired in the shower, especially because I'm a night shower-er. I usually just plop down sometime in the shower's span and lay there relaxing and basically falling asleep. I only get up when the water starts to get cold and even then, I'll take a few more minutes of quiet, me time.
6. Shower hair flipping.
I don't know what it is about flipping my hair around when it's wet. I just totally feel myself (not in that way perverts) and love flipping one of my best features around in sexy fashion.
7. Shower sex.
This is a no go because it sounds great in theory but in practice...not so much, or so I've been told. I've never done it, but I've been strongly advised to NOT participate.
8. Peeing in the shower.
I mean...come on. We all have done it, whether as kids or as lazy adults who don't want to track water all over the place. I just admit it and let it go. We all accept showering peeing here.
These are all the things one could do in the shower, so if you aren't singing and dancing in your very own music video while in the shower, then are you really even alive?
