Do you ever get the feeling where you're so unimpressed with yourself for getting to the extent of laziness that you're currently squalorring in, however it just feels so good?
I can't begin to describe the matt of hair that's formed on my head. And how I've worn this t shirt for the past 2 1/2 days, (both asleep and awake). And I'm wrapped up in my blanket on the sofa and still debating shower vs. filth. In my defense, I don't smell. I've never been a smelly person. And the reason that I know this is because I don't have a sense of smell really...but please let me finish. Therefore the real reason I know is because I used to get my mother to smell me before I went to school, just to make sure. And my dwindling paranoia has been reconfirmed by boyfriends past, reinstating what I already know; I'm not smelly.
What I am is lazy. I don't know if it's free time, teenage angst revenge, boredom or maybe it's just Europe, but lately showering has become tedious. I'm an everyday shower kind of girl (evidence to the contrary above but I swear to you I do), but I'm starting to resent it. Ultimately I know it's just my long hair, that I've officially quit brushing, quit blow drying and just let curl and look tusseled. So my day now has to revolve around showering, then another 45 minutes that my hair needs to be wrapped in a terri-cloth turban, then another hour for it to be loose, air drying.
I'm also one of those bratty people who has a pool at my parents house and whenever friends came over who wanted to swim, I would insist on not. I just hate being dry, getting wet, drying off again. Which brings up a funny story that may only be so to Chris. I was watching the Little Mermaid a few months ago whilst Chris was idly listening/reading the paper. I asked him if he would like to live under the sea which prompted zero response except laughter as I sat debating to myself whether I would like or not. Ultimately I chose not because I would be wet all the time and my hair would get stringy.
I just peered out the window. I think this turned into some sort of subconscious reaction to the weather. It's tipping it down with rain.

I absolutely despise showering and will not shower unless I really, really need to. That is to say, I shower on the daily with hatred for the water... but come the weekend if I am just chilling in Toronto, I will go the whole weekend as my PJs as my extra skin and no shower until Sunday night.
I hate getting wet for the most part. Showers... dishes... swimming (minus when I am on vacation). And I hate the process of getting dry.
In conclusion: I totally feel what you are saying. However, I am a step ahead of you and have embraced the non-showering days... not as being lazy... but as in using my time wisely!
I'm not a smelly person either *high five*
But I can't shower every day. I have the driest skin ever. I feel like if I were to shower every day my skin would flake off. Gross? Maybe.
But yeah I have to do the every other day shenanigan unless it's ridiculously hot out or else I itch like crazy and my skin looks like a desert.
Too much info?
Oh delicious. We're all a bunch of dirty girls. But can definitely agree that pjs become second skin. I usually don't shower either Saturday or Sunday (whichever day I'm hungover usually...)
But you know those weird people who love baths. Couldn't think of anything worse.
