I have a low sohn exhaust fan.

I switched back to bar soap it just works better than a loofah and those things get pretty disgusting quickly. I shower at least once but typically twice a day. Absolutely can not function without one.

That's what I'm talkin' bout!

If the fixtures are Axor, you win the thread automatically.

Are we still poor after getting registered?
Big Time.

I begin my bridge classes for a Master of Computer Science at NKU this January and am shooting to be out of the profession by 2019. (But I will maintain my NYS & NCARB registrations for kicks.)

Hold on a second, so the only thing we can splurge on is Apple products, office chairs and shower fixtures? You're an alien.

I don't care what anyone splurges on. It's a free country.

I don't and can't splurge on much, but when I do, I splurge on an "attainable best." Right now, I don't have anything that is "the best." My iPhone 6 Plus was "the best" last year, but I didn't upgrade to the 6S Plus. Alas, I am bestless at the moment.

Hold on, you take notes in the shower? How long are you in there?

I'm out of the shower in less than 5 minutes unless I'm shaving that day.

Trying to wake up. 5 minutes in the shower is like you don't even want to be in there. I want to be in there for 10-15.

I'm a big "shower thinker" and take 5 minute showers as well. I don't use it much, but when I do need it, its nice to have there.

I appreciate how cooking food can be a passion/hobby, but it is not one of mine, at all. It's a colossal waste of my time.

I have a low ceiling on "good" food and had the same lunchtime Subway sandwich 4x per week for years at one point.

I cook scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast once a month of so. Other than that, my wife cooks everything - with the exception of me "heating things up" from time to time (all on IKEA everything, obviously).

I applied to be a beta tester of Soylent, but was not chosen. Now that it is getting up to speed, I am considering trying it out.

I have a wolf range, dacor fridge and diswasher, kitchenaid mixer, some fancy food processor, and a bunch of other crap that I don't know about because I cook like once a year. Wife cooks everynight though, so well worth it. I take extremely long, extremely hot showers. Love a nice long shower. Actually difficult for me to drag myself out of there. One of the most relaxing parts of the whole night for me actually.

Here is an explanation of the actual "method to the madness" of having a notepad in your shower:

“The whole idea of GTD about being present is that you can’t really focus your reflective brain full on being present if you’re distracted. If you need cat food and that thought “Gee I need cat food” pops in more than once, you are inappropriately engaged with your cat and “You need cat food” could pop in and take up brain bandwidth when you’re trying to focus."

I try to not have a thought more than once by writing things down and processing them into a "trusted system."

Just installed a new smart tv in clear view of the glass shower stall. Heavy duty handicap bars. I like to take long relaxing showers.

5X5 tiled shower with glass door and wall. Granite corner storage shelves. Rubbed bronze fixtures. Whole bathroom is approximately 240sf of heated tile floor with toilet closet, granite countertops, a built in vanity/storage space separate from the sink area, and unfortunately a jacuzzi tub. Before we moved we had remodeled our master bath and went with a free-standing tub. Much more useful than the dumb jets that no one uses.

Walk in cave shower with no door. Bench, 2 heads (1 detachable). Was thought out and built with lots of oral and vaginal intercourse in mind, boy what a dreamer I was!!1

Also the no door thing was pretty cool until I remembered kids believe it is their right to bust in whenever they choose. Going to have to address that at some point.
