There's nothing like a nice, hot, relaxing shower at any time of day to get me in a better mood, with a more awake body. I know most people go for cold showers to wake themselves, or warm showers to clean themselves, but to me it's hot or nothing baby!
So, normally I turn on the faucet in the bath, hot all the way up, cold about a quarter of a turn. I have it to the point where I don't really have to check the water or anything, I just know the right levels to spin those little dials to. That's right, I'm that good. Of course, ask me to set it to anything BUT hot and I have a problem.

Today, just a little while ago, I decided to take an oath that I would check it before-hand every single time.

I stepped in after the appropriate time of letting it warm up, the room was getting slightly fogged up, a good sign to me. After roughly five seconds, my feet decided to talk to my brain.

FEET: Hey, brain, you awake this morning?
BRAIN: What? Huh? Who's talking to me?
FEET: Well, just had a quick message for you, in case you didn't know.
BRAIN: Oh, feet! How've you been? What's the message?
FEET: OWWWWW! HOT! WATER HOT! FEET GETTING BOILED ALIVE! ABORT! ABORT! ABORT! ABORT!
BRAIN: It can't be that bad, let's try pointing the shower head at the rest of me, and even out the heat! That's a GREAT idea!

A brief micro-second later, the body joined into the conversation.

BODY: WHAT THE *&%% ARE YOU DOING, YOU IDIOT!? THAT'S HOT!

5 second pause while brain catches up to the conversation.

BRAIN: Oh, you know, I might have forgotten to turn the cold water on...

Yeah. Always checking beforehand now. No more red feet.

But man, it kind of felt good after the pain. I love hot showers, what can I say?
