Right now, I’m obsessed with the shower conversation. You know the one. While you’re safe and sound under the spray of hot water, you plan out a conversation that’s happening tomorrow. You replay a conversation that happened three days ago. You come up with witty comebacks for a conversation that will probably never happen at all.
For some reason, there is no better place suited for talking to people (who aren’t there) than in the shower. In the safe cocoon of my home bathroom (or any bathroom, TBH), I am the most articulate person on earth. I know exactly what to say. My points are concise, my timing is impeccable. The shower version of me has never lost an argument. She’s never stumbled over her words. She is . . . dare I say, perfect?
Conversing in the shower just hits. I can practice difficult conversations, rehearse what I’d say on a first date, or map out how I’ll respond if someone decides to ask me a question I’ve never actually been asked. It’s called being prepared. Look it up.
Double Dog Dare You: The next time you catch yourself having a full-on conversation with someone wo isn’t there — don’t stop. You might finally say the perfect thing!
