I don't know how to relax in the bathtub.

It isn't that I have problems with stress. Well, I mean, I do, but that's not the problem.

The problem is, I don't fit.

I've never thought of myself as particularly tall; it's always just seemed that many people around me are abnormally short - except, of course, the ones that make me feel short. Those people are tall. Naturally.

But then I'm confronted with the reality that I don't fit in the bathtub. And then I find myself annoyed, only half-wet, and having to reluctantly admit that maybe I'm interpreting my existence from the wrong perspective.

Maybe I should ask Qichi about the art of taking baths. ...Except I'm pretty sure that they mentioned being short. Goddamn.

It's probably for the best that we don't have a Lush in town. I'd keep buying bath bombs, and that would result in more mediocre and unsatisfying bathtub experiences.

Bathtubs are a lie, but it's okay! Usually I just stick my legs out the other end and take turns soaking back/legs. Which helps if you want to mentally slow yourself down, I guess? Concentrate on what you're soaking, pace yourself, pace your mind, all that fun stuff. If you have a curtain, closing it can help trap in the heat for a sauna effect. Bringing books or a radio can help take your mind off the flopping around. It's kind of a project, but it's worth it, right?

BATHTUBS ARE THE WORST LIE.

Hmm, I didn't think of sticking my feet out. :Va Seems like it would be kind of cold, but eh, I have another bath bomb under the sink and I'm going to have to use it eventually....

I will have to do some experimenting, I think. ;p
