Poll question: How often do you bathe?
Edited on Tue Dec-09-03 10:50 AM by elfwitch
By bathing I mean showers, baths, or any method you might use to cleanse your entire body.

1. An old joke:
"Where do you take a bath here in the woods?"
"I bathe in the spring."
"I didn't say when...I said where!"

2. Depends...don'tcha love that answer?
On days I do not go to the gym - once.
On days I go to the gym - twice.
On days I go out for the evening - twice.
On days that are so hot, even thinking about going outside makes you sweat - twice.
On days when I am wrapped under a blanket, watching football and goofing off, with no intention of stepping foot outside my apartment - zero.

9. I think we were separated at birth
That was my answer verbatim...although I'm probably a little more likely to get up and bathe at some point even on days when I'm "wrapped under a blanket watching football, etc".

5. No sireee....
I LOVE the bathing experience.
I'd do it three or four times a day.
On weekends I often do.

No my friend, elves do not reek.
We are a clean and fresh smelling lot.

6. We get a bath each time we do dishes at Culinary School
Why the hell bother taking one at home.

Just kidding.

Daily and when it's hot out several times a day because I hate being hot.

7. Twice a day
I always shower in the morning, after I get up and I shower in the evening before I go out. If I do not go out, I shower anyway, so I can have the fresh clean feeling.
I like taking showers. People should do it more often.

8. Every other day
Sometimes every day. It's based on need, not schedule.

I only wash my hair twice a week. I have beautiful long hair, which tends to be quite dry.

11. 2X / day. Shower in the morning, as a starter-thing, and...
once in the evening, to clean off the cares of the day.

I like connecting with water -- it's very grounding. I feel much more relaxed after having been exposed to water.

I also like to swim!

When he was still at home , here was his schedule

In hot weather(cool shower), or extrememly cold weather(steamy hot shower), he would shower even more..

15. I do it every morning, but I don't like it.
It's such a process. I like baths, but my old tub is not bath worthy.

Does anyone else hate showering?? Especially in winter!

20. My friend Danielle's roommate bathes once a WEEK!
Their room stinks. And the roommate is a bitch. That's why it sucks to live in the dorms.
