Deanna's retarded poll of the day

[dr4b]

Sometimes I wonder what "normal" bathing methods and times are.

Don't worry, I won't use this data against anyone, even if they end up being a houseguest (although I'll know whether to put out washcloths for you...)

I can take anywhere from ten to thirty minutes in the shower, depending on how much time I have, how many times I wash my hair, and if I get lost in thought and forget what I have and haven't yet done, and start over (or at least in the middle...).

During Sophomore/Junior year, the shower was a frequent source of enlighenment. Usually this occurred in the form:
1) Work on a really nasty problem or problem-set (usually for Rudich or similar) until late at night. Do not solve/finish completely.
2) Sleep.
3) Get up, take a shower, have revelation about problem(s) while doing so. Stand there working it out mentally.

This process has been known to work even when step #2 has been skipped, although usually it works better when it is left in.
