Funny.
I hated swimming laps in a warm pool. Soaking in warm or even hot water is fine. Swimming in it? Bleck. Felt like swimming in jello and I couldn't get it out of my head that it was like swimming in pee. Which, ew.
Sweetie, we're crooks. If everything were right, we'd be in jail.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
This is what cracked me up from ita's link:
There is a virtual communicative relationship built between you and the smart tub
I suggest we give lori a warning. Should I take this to Bureau?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't leave anything on me that might irritate my skin, because it will.
I can't bathe in anything that might irritate my skin, so it's not much of a practical issue for me.

I don't like baths. I'd have to shower, then soak in the tub, then shower again. Not relaxing. I could probably change my mind for a truly fantastic tub/tub setting (meaning some gorgeous bathroom, not a setting on the Magic Tub ita linked to). But I don't have that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think I have an issue with still water, as well. Because I don't mind warm showers (although I tend more toward hot or cool). Hot tubs = all good.

Dried soap or anything leaving a non-oily residue (like salt stuff or oatmeal bath stuff) will eventually drive me nuts. But in a bath? Nah.
OK, off to depressing when-will-the-layoffs-hit-and-how-many meeting!

Okay, that seating system ROCKS. I'm already pro-pile, but mine doesn't respond to moods.

Also, you can play some sort of yogilates-Twister on it.

Better than a couch to cuddle on is a couch that cuddles you.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Best feature of that bathtub:
Self cleaning: With a simple command from the instrument panel, this function initiates the circulation of water plus detergent through all the Smart Hydro’s internal water-bearing systems and in the interior of the bathtub. When the operation is over, Smart Hydro automatically empties.
[Though I wonder if bath bombs would be a problem for it the way they are for jacuzzis. That would be ungood.]
