Giles ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I definitely hear that, but no hot water? In Michigan? In January? No thanks.
Well, okay, I've taken a handful of cold baths and one cold shower in my adult life. Very against the cold. Even in LA in the summer. But that's what makes it an issue -- balancing the temporary intense discomfort, or the lingering disquiet.
Spongebath, or lots of kettling.
I'd sponge bathe with water heated on the stove before willingly going 3 days between showers.
I don't shower every day anymore, and I kind of love it. I think it's better for my skin and hair, too.
I shower before bed. It's one of those religious divides; some people get up and get clean, some people get clean and go to bed.
Bath before bedtime. If I don't take a bath before I go to bed, I have (more) problems falling asleep.
I, too, think the world will not collapse if you skip a day of showering. Especially if hypothermia is a distinctly possible byproduct of said showering.
I also think warding with pickles would be wicked cool. And I'm going to go home now since it's finally past 6 pm and I can remove one thing from my list of things I don't understand.
I'd sponge bathe with water heated on the stove before willingly going 3 days between showers.
Oh sure. But I'd sponge bathe with stove-heated water WAY before I'd take an icy cold shower in the winter.
I don't shower every day anymore, and I kind of love it. I think it's better for my skin and hair, too.
See, I can't (like compulsion can't) put on body lotion on unwashed skin. And even if I don't shower, I have 36 hours max before I need to be re-moisturised.
I remember a cousin moving to England and being so excited he could shower at night and wake up not funky. Not like Jamaica.
I don't shower every day (more by circumstance than by choice), and I don't wash my hair every time I shower. My hair is much nicer if I only wash it a couple times a week.
Suddenly, tho' I feel like I'm the skanky Buffista.
Burrell, you aren't the skanky Buffista at all! (BTW did you get my email?)
If the storm is bad, you can blame Jesse for taunting it.
I love washing my hair each day and feel ick if I don't. That's a me issue though and not a grooming expecation for others.
