Biweekly showers

As my lovely wife reminded me, "biweekly" can mean either once every two weeks or twice a week. Fortunately for me (and everyone who has to smell me), we get two 2-minute showers per week, to conserve both water and fuel.

One big asset for a 2-minute shower is liquid soap. I can turn on the water and get wet in about 15 seconds, then turn off the water and lather up and shampoo my hair. When I'm ready, I can turn the water on and take my time rinsing off and relaxing in the warm water.

It's amazing how nice a 2-minute shower can be!

Humm... hope you don't get busted for breaking the rules. Technically bi-weekly is once every two weeks. Semi-weekly would be twice a week. Imagine if your using all your alloted showers and won't get any for the second half of your stay :-)

We're enjoying your updates.
