Lately my best ideas have come to me while either showering (something that dates back to college, in fact. Pulling an all-nighter while writing a paper generally meant a cobweb-clearing shower around 4 am) or drinking whiskey (this is, believe it or not, a rather recent development).
What would happen — what greatness could I achieve — were I to bring the whiskey into the shower?
This may warrant a bit of experimentation.
Note to self: pick up non-slip bathtub appliques.
- Inner Critic: Does it bother you that you're dressed kinda like a demented schoolgirl? At your age? Really?
- Me: Fuck off.
