surviving cold showers

So I lagged on getting the gas bill transferred into my name, which resulted in no warm water. Figuring it would get turned on immediately the next day I rationalized that I would be able to live without a shower for 24 hours. I was wrong.

I had a long day at work and all I wanted was that super clean feeling. Mustering up the courage, I walked into my apartment and straight into the bathroom to shower. Quickly I turned on the water, and stepped into the shower at the far end of the tub. It went downhill fast. My instinct was to ditch the shower and live forever dirty, okay for another day. I decided to stick my leg into the stream of water, cold shock! I tried to hop to the other end of the bath so the water would flow over my head. It was an unusual dance I had with that water. As soon as I got my hair wet it was all over, freezing water flowed all over me and at that point there was no turning back!

Once it was all over, I vowed I would never do that again. And I couldn't help but laugh.
