Shower Thoughts

I thought I’d steal a thread idea from another site and that is shower thoughts! Basically those strange thoughts that pop into your head while you’re going about your business.

Today’s is literally from during my shower…

If I was as picky about what I put in my mouth as I am with what I put on my skin and in my hair then I’d probably be a size eight!

Would love to hear the random thoughts that pop into you Beauties’ heads, beauty related or not!

    I just saw this thread and CherryBlossom, you have made me lol! Why do you think about the video from that song? Does it have a shower scene? The only part I remember is when they’re all singing at the end of it….have to go and YouTube it now haha!!

    • 7 yrs, 8 mths ago

      Oh glad I made you lol cat lover :)))

      Yes, I think there is a shower scene in the video, the whole song is slow motion, if I remember correctly. Did you YouTube it, I should too actually!!!!

      • 7 yrs, 8 mths ago

        Yes, there is a shower scene! It`s kind of a bizarre video which left me with unanswered questions….1. Who is the guy on the phone supposed to be? 2. Why aren`t any white people allowed in the choir? 3. Are the drycleaner and the guy who was ignoring workplace health and safety on the building actually in the choir?

        You just made me laugh because it was such a random thing to think about in the shower. Things like that always make me laugh!

    I tend to re-enact scenes/monologues from movies or shows, lately I’ve been quoting/re-enacting mafia films.
    Also if someone or something as been bothering me, I tend think about how I’m going to handle that situation (…err, this isn’t related to the re-enacting mafia moves at all hahaha)

    This is probably gonna be the strangest one. I’m a writer, so most of my story ideas come when I’m having a shower or when I’m about to fall asleep! xD Some interesting ones here!

    I’m normally going through what i have to do for the day and singing most of the time haha

  • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

    Ok so now I’m sitting here singing and since I don’t want to sing alone I’m posting the lyrics …..I dare anyone who’s old enough to know the song not to sing the whole thing, I just don’t think it’s humanly possible, once this song gets in your head it’s there to stay 😀

    I gotta take a little time
    A little time to think things over
    I better read between the lines
    In case I need it when I’m older

    Now this mountain I must climb
    Feels like a world upon my shoulders
    I through the clouds I see love shine
    It keeps me warm as life grows colder

    In my life there’s been heartache and pain
    I don’t know if I can face it again
    Can’t stop now, I’ve traveled so far
    To change this lonely life

    I wanna know what love is
    I want you to show me
    I wanna feel what love is
    I know you can show me

    I’m gonna take a little time
    A little time to look around me
    I’ve got nowhere left to hide
    It looks like love has finally found me

    In my life there’s been heartache and pain
    I don’t know if I can face it again
    I can’t stop now, I’ve traveled so far
    To change this lonely life

    I wanna know what love is
    I want you to show me
    I wanna feel what love is
    I know you can show me

    I wanna know what love is
    I want you to show me
    And I wanna feel, I want to feel what love is
    And I know, I know you can show me

    Let’s talk about love
    I wanna know what love is, the love that you feel inside
    I want you to show me, and I’m feeling so much love
    I wanna feel what love is, no, you just cannot hide
    I know you can show me, yeah

    I wanna know what love is, let’s talk about love
    I want you to show me, I wanna feel it too
    I wanna feel what love is, I want to feel it too
    And I know and I know, I know you can show me
    Show me love is real, yeah
    I wanna know what love is…

    Interesting thread! Makes me smile too!

    Before I get into the shower, I have to make sure I’m really awake, because there have been times when I’ve been caught inside my shower, doing my business and then I see a big spider, and ofcourse, I’m awake by that sight, and then I have to scramble and shoo it off with the hot water, (sorry spider lovers, I don’t have any other choice being buck naked in a small space with something that can, will and did bite me).

    Once I’m in my shower, I try to relax, but I have a wall clock on the opposite wall, so I’m checking the time, and I also have a calendar on a nearby wall, so I confirm the day and date in my mind by having a quick look.

    I also have to remember to shampoo, cleanse, maybe double cleanse, use face wash, use soap, body scrub, shave (if needed). So I try not to forget these things.

    I try my best to relax and inhale for a few seconds and do nothing and let the hot water soothe my worries and tension away, and I always imagine the Foreigner video from “I want to know what love is…….I want you to show me……” song and I hear Lou Gramm.

    I’m soooo showing my age!!!! 🙂

      I`m more freaked out at you “”doing your business”” in the shower.

      I`ve got a tattoo of a spider on my breast. I got it in my teens & I still don`t regret it. It took me about 15 years to get used to seeing it in the shower though. It takes me a while to wake up too. I`ve lost count of the number of times I`ve jumped out of my skin & tried to claw at my breast before realising that it`s just my tatt.

      • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

        Whaaaatttt!!!!??? Haha, I meant my showering, I was going to write lathering, but didn`t want to get all soapy sudsy and descriptive, you`re so funny and naughty misfortune8!

        You jumping at your tattoo sounds so cute, it`s exactly like what I do. I used to see my hair after I`ve shampooed it, out of the corner of my eye in the shower, and jump because I`d think it`s a spider on my head! I`ve done that several times.

        Glad you like your tattoo, you`re such a cool chick! I`d still be jumping after 50 years if I saw it on my chest!!

      • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

        Haha! I`m arachnophobic, so it was really masochistic of me to get a spider in the first place. When I was a kid, I always like the tatts that moved, so I chose a spider because I can flex & make it move.

      • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

        Wow, good on you for doing that! I call that brave!!!! But there`s no way I`m getting a tatt of a cockroach on me, yuk, grose and get away!!!! Not happening!!!

        Now, excuse me while I try to get the mental image of you flexing your boob out of my mind!!!!!!!!! ;))))

    • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

      Oh this is perfect – CherryBlossom classic. Thanks for brightening up my day – and you`re definitely NOT showing your age, you`re years younger than I am and “”I want to know what love is……”” is one of my all time favourite songs – on ALL my phone playlists!

      CB I can`t stop giggling about the spider reference! Thanks Hun – you`re just what I needed!! Hugs out to you and everyone else who will love this post – and you of course!

      • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

        Thank you Trish, as usual, you`ve very kindly brightened my day with your ever so special and uplifting words. Warms my heart, thank you.

    Hi beauties,

    great forum topic – and love how the conversation’s veered off to dissect zombie literature! Hilarious.

    My most recent shower thought was about a fancy salad recipe to use for a dinner party. I was trying to remember whether I had some of the ingredients still from the last time I made it (in hindsight I probably shouldn’t have strained my brain and just waited to check the pantry instead haha).

    I like sunjeanie’s shower thought – what a perfect time to reflect on the day’s events!

    I know I have a habit of thinking about what I could have said or done better during the day whilst in the shower. However if I have music playing I generally just have my mind on that. 😛

  • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

    In the shower, I’m also usually planning what to wear & reminding myself not to forget things I’ve got to do during the day.

    The hypnogogic thoughts however, WHOA!
    Eg. Since zombies eat dead bodies, why don’t they chase & eat each other?

    • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

      misfortune8 No, not related to zombies! I`d show you my diary but how can I be sure you won`t steal and extract my thoughts??

    • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

      They only eat fresh meat.

      zombie and beauty obsessions is not weird is it? 😉

      • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

        I thought of that, but they still tuck into dead bodies they find that aren`t zombies.

      • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

        If they are dead but haven`t turned yet then they are still relatively `fresh`. Although depends on what kind of zombies we`re referring to. Most recent zombie based literature tends to suggest that everyone is infected so when you die you will turn into a zombie anyway, although there is also the school of thought that you must be bitten to turn. So if you die another way then you just die and thats it. That makes me ponder if once already dead if you could still be `zombiefied` should the zombies choose to feast on your remains? And if they do then that takes as back to your question. Why don`t they just chase around and eat eachother?

        just your casual Monday morning discussion around the water cooler lol

      • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

        Yeah, every movie/book/graphic novel/tv series is different. On “”The Walking Dead”” for example, the time it takes to turn can vary from a few minutes to almost a day. Suppose a zombie took out your throat in a bite: you bleed out in minutes, “”turn”” a few minutes later … what then? Does the original zombie, who hasn`t even finished off your shoulder, just quit feeding & stagger off?

  • 7 yrs, 9 mths ago

    I keep a diary of my hypnogogic thoughts (those thoughts you have just before you drift off to sleep that is in between a dream and active thinking). I know, I’m the next level crazy!

    I haven’t thought of having a shower thought diary though because it isn’t that exciting. I shower every morning and I’m usually in a rush. I’m mostly planning my day in the head. Other than that just how tangly and unnamanageable my hair is going to be or which new shampoo to buy or what to wear for the day!
