Gonna hafta take a shower
It’s Saturday Night and I’m gonna hafta take a shower.
I never take showers between Friday and Sunday. Or shave. I like to get really stinky and hairy on the weekend. Then on Sunday night, just before bed, I take a long shower and shave my head and face and voila! new me for the new week.
But since Orion joined us, I’m a little short on time during the week to shower (or shave, or brush my teeth for that matter), so I generally get a shower in every-other-day. Or maybe I’ll skip two days, I dunno. This leads to weird hiccups in the schedule.
And, to tell the truth, since I quit doing the kind of work that involves sweat and dirt and weather — ten years ago this month, actually — I kind of don’t see the point. I kind of dislike bathing, when all I’m washing off is cubicle stank.
So now it’s Saturday night and I realize I haven’t had a shower since Wednesday. And I have to go to the grocery store tomorrow where there will be other people and I’m not sure I can count on all of them being anosmic.
Everyone should shave their heads. At least once in your life.
It has been twenty four days since my last blog post.

Your office is gonna be pretty empty this week so it's probably safe to skip the showers ;)
"Cubicle stank." Nice coinage.
I agree about shaving one's head once in one's life. (Everyone should have a nervous breakdown, too. Builds character.) Had I the bone structure to pull it off, I'd have done it in my twenties.
It grows back you know.
I realize this advice is harder for women than men. But conversely I think every man should shave his legs and wear a dress at least once too.
I have a terrible head for this haircut. Sorta flattened in back, with kind of a saddle in the middle. And some weird freckles.
