Spending too much time in the shower

Does anyone else have a shower addiction like me? I can spend an hour in there.

Usually, I go into the shower, turn the water up to a high heat and lay down in the tub. Sometimes I fall asleep, sometimes I listen to the radio, and sometimes I masturbate, but I always take at least 30 minutes. Anyone else do that?

I use lots of lotion too because it dries out my skin.

At least 15 minutes if I'm just washing my hair.
But when I'm fully washing, shaving, shampooing twice and conditioning twice and evrything, about 30 mintues.

When I'm having a bath, I'll take a book and spend an hour in there.

It takes about 2 hours to dry my hair, so I shower less often than naturally smelly people.

10 minutes. I've got things to do and people to see.

My record in there is about an hour, and oddly enough my right side takes the water worse than my left side. So I have a red right hand when I come out.

I was in the Army. I got into the army shower habit. 'Pits, balls, asscrack. 6 or 7 minutes is fairly normal for me. (I do wash all parts, but I just do it quick.) Oh, and I guess I should mention that I have a fetish with smelling purdy. That's right, the fruitier-smelling the soap/shampoo, the better. Right now, I use dial tropical breeze soap, or tone cucumber melon. I also use suave strawberry scented shampoo. (I don't condition.) then, when I get out of the shower, I use right guard cool sport scented deodorant. then, when I leave for work. Axe body spray on the clothes. I always smell purdy. Hell, even my hair smells like grapes after I put rave mousse and hairspray in....Holy hell. I just went and said a bunch of shit that has nothing to do with this post. Plus it's probably TMI. Excuse me, I must go shoot myself now....

Nah, if I just take a shower I'll do it fairly quickly, 2-3 minutes at most, but then again I go to the sauna every other day and that takes about an hour to hour and a half.

I can be in and out in about 10 minutes if I have to be, but 30 minutes is closer to my average in my own house. If I'm in a hotel or someone else's house, I want to be out as fast as I can. I'm just not comfortable in other people's showers.

Wow, those are some long showers. I usually take only 2-3 minutes. Then again the last time I took a long shower was back in the old days when I didn't need to conserve water and the energy bill.~Jason

Usually 20 minutes. I can be longer if i have company, which is a very rare yet welcome occurance. My shower has a pulse mode which is nice for a lady.

Anything from 5 minutes to over an hour. Depends on how long the hot water lasts (since this apartment has a midget heater (water heater that's only two feet tall) and the shower head has a _HUGE_ mass-flow rate, my showers tend toward the short end of that range even with expert hot-water-management tactics...

Other than that, I'm just like Superman with a bit of Chardok's nice-smell fetish thrown in :D

Are you sure that's not from something else? :P

Washing my giant balls alone takes more time than that. I have a little song I like to sing while I do it, too. It runs to the tune of "Breakin' the Law" by Judas Priest, and it's called "Washin' my Balls." It goes like this:

Washin' my balls! Washin' my balls!
Washin' my balls! Washin' my balls!

Wa wa wa wa

Washin' my balls! Washin' my balls!
Washin' my balls! Washin' my balls!

La la la la

Washin' my balls! Washin' my balls!

Yeah!

Washin' my balls! Waaaashin' my balls!!!!


And so on.

I used to take really long showers, but I've gotten better at making them snappy... during the weekdays, anyways.

That's all exactly me too. Except, add candles and music along with the book too (yes, it's not the best reading light, I don't care).

20 minutes or longer if I'm being picky or going out somewhere, as then, everything gets done, I refuse to step out of the shower until I'm totally clean shaven, which does take a while, as we don't have a mirror anywhere to hand in the shower, so blind shaving tends to miss patches. For picky, read cleaning under nails, 2 shampoo and conditioner etc, but most of the time, it's about 7 or 8 minutes to be respectable.

I usually don't spend more than ten minutes in the shower, although I can be in the bathroom for longer, since the water takes a while to heat up, and I usually use the toilet before taking a shower.

Not very long for showers, but I can take baths hours long if I want...
