The morning shower
Not too long ago, someone asked me whether or not I would enjoy taking a morning shower with someone else because it would be an intimate experience between two people.
Me, being the pragmatist that I am, answered with: “God, I hate morning showers. They scare the shit outta me.”
I don’t think that was the correct answer. They were expecting something else.
Personally, morning showers (whether alone, or with someone else) do scare the shit out of me. The water is never warm enough. In fact, it’s pretty damn cold. Also, because I only wake up approximately an hour after I wake up, having cold water pellets jab at your face and body for 10 minutes is not the way to start my day (or to ease my crankiness).
I take my showers at night, before I go to bed, so I feel clean and like I washed off the day so I have no ill feelings before I fall asleep. Also, I like to be in and out – five minutes tops – and not waste any time under the spray.
Of course, if I have someone to take a shower with me at night is another story altogether.

Then you'd be forced to take a shower in the morn to wash the scum off your skin.
I used to take showers at night, until I learned that you sweat off about a pound of water in your sleep. Gross.
I cant shower at night. The water wakes me up to the point where I cannot fall asleep after a shower.
Morning showers I have to do alone. But afternoon showers, like the one my partner and I took together yesterday, are the best. We use lots of soap and clean every nook and cranny of each others' bodies'. So relaxing!
What! No morning douching? Shame on you. (Listen to me....one who could go for a day or two without a shower at all.) But I do like it in the morning...the shower.
thats weird.
i usually take at least 1 shower a day...if not more than 1. and usually the first one is in the morning. after working out and walking the beast.
and like you i like to wash away the ills of the day before going to bed. but i also dont feel 'clean' in the morning even after just sleeping in my bed.
weird huh?
I'll volunteer to take the evening shower with you.
I should mention that I do take showers if/when I get dirty/sweaty/smelly, but that doesn't happen much when you're sitting behind a computer for most of your day.
when its hot out... morning and night... but with company, well, that can take a bit longer ;)
