Guess where I thought this up

Posted April 20th, 2011 at 1:02 PM by Esper

The best place in any house is the bathroom. No, really. The most important things I do happen there. When I shower I can forget about everything and have some peace of mind. I don't think about the work I have to do and I don't even notice time going by. I clean myself up. I wake up from that zombie feeling. It feels like being reborn. The bathroom has a convenient place for me to sit and think without worrying about being interrupted. I'm glad the one I use has a fan. It makes pleasant background noise that insulates me from outside sounds. I can lock the door for the extra assurance of not being disturbed. Then there's the mirror. The mirror gives me a chance to reflect on myself - something I don't do often, but when I do I want it to be a private affair and I want to feel fresh and clean when I do. Being in the bathroom is kind of like being inside my own little temple which is also inside my own head.

    Bathrooms are awesome places for thinking. Unfortunately, mine happens to be painted bright green, which is somewhat counter-productive.

    I think of a lot of weird things in the shower. Then I come back upstairs and ask random people all my queries. :)

    I have a new paranoia thanks to my thoughts the shower brought me. I have plenty of them as it is, I don't need any more!!

    She does.

    The bathroom is my favorite place ever. The shower is where I just wash off all the stress and worry, and have time to myself to just think. Plus, it's comfortable and relaxing - which helps.

    What, nobody sings/shouts in the shower along to hard metal songs anymore? Now you just THINK?! >__>

    My best place for thinking is my bed. It's my relaxation domain. The shower is just a routine to me.

    I sing as well as think, but not hard metal. It usually ends up being J-Pop, which confuses the hell out of anyone walking past.

    What? no! My bedroom is painted green and it's awesome. If it were bright green it would be doubly awesome.

    Not when the lighting is arranged so you feel like you're in the intestines of a caterpillar. :/

    I couldn't agree more. *thumbs up*

    It's a great place to get away from things without fear of being disturbed. And my stack of Uncle John's Bathroom Readers provides countless hours of amusement. :D
