May Flowers Bring December Showers




I had a shower experience I just had to share with everyone today. It has a mind of its own.
(All times Greenwich standard. And not exact)

7:05- Shaken by Dad, told to wake up
7:10- Hear loud noises in kitchen, decide to wake up
7:13- Turn water on in shower, pick up the right door and put in place
10 seconds later- Dad calls in through bathroom window (I know, right?) that the hot water heater is "working"
1 second later- I recall the last time I had a shower that wasn't cold. It was August 6th.
5 seconds later- Step into shower
10 seconds later- finish closing left door after trying for 9 seconds
3 seconds later- Turn cold water on, then try to turn hot water on. Hot water doesn't work, so I give up, shiver for a minute, then get used to it
7:24- Finish shower. Turn water off. Try hot water again just for kicks. It works.
3 seconds later- After disappointment leaves, I try to turn hot water off. It is stuck.
15 seconds later- Succeed in turning hot water knob all the way to the right. Cold water continues to pour.
2 seconds later- After checking both knobs are off, I just let the cold water run.
1 second later- Step out of shower, kick the right door by accident, and it falls off, knocking the shower head out of its holder.

6:34 p.m.- While taking pictures of the shower, the shower head pours water on me and the door falls from its position and hits me over the head.

Many years from now.
Will you still be sending me a valentine,
birthday greetings, bottle of wine?"
