Don't worry mine is about the same.
I'm even quick showering, I used to live in a student house where you needed to put 50 Pfennig in a box to get hot water for the shower. You better be quick before it runs out and gets cold.

My experience with quick showers is much the same. In basic training for the Marines, you had to shower fast before the hot water ran out. When you have 60 people in your platoon showering at the same time, hot water goes fast. I was usually in and out in less than two minutes and that was a very thorough shower. I take long ones now when I can, but if I gotta go, I can still hit the two minute mark and be completely clean. That is, if I don't wash my hair which I didn't have in basic haha. _________________ Sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc.

I pluck my eyebrows though.
Yesterday I had a shower, exfoliated, moisturised and face packed myself up in honour of this thread. _________________ www.leedsburlesque.co.uk |

*looks around* shhhhh... I thin mine a bit, too. I don't pluck, though. I'm not that careful about it. I just run a razor over the top and bottom of the brow.
It's not like I have a unibrow or anything, but if I don't thin my eyebrows, it looks strange compared to how manicured I keep the rest of the hair on my face. The fact that I have to dye my eyebrows and facial hair doesn't help. I'd look funny with a blonde beard and black hair. _________________ Sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc.

I did my eyebrows and had a face pack too, made me feel a bit better about being a sloth. One day I may get round to getting the lawnmower on to these legs of mine.  _________________ If life hands you a lemon make lemonade |

I don't think I can answer this without sending you all to sleep, but needless to say my life is one long merry-go-round of twice daily cleansing, toning and moisturising - hair dying, waxing, manicures, pedicures, roller setting, scrubbing, smoothing on and on and on.
Oh and the daily inspection and massage of wrinkles, he he.

Sounds like some kind of bliss...apart from the wrinkle thing. I sent my husband out to by some face cream the other day with full instructions of what to buy and he came home with stuff for 60+ skin I'm 25, I nearly committed murder. _________________ If life hands you a lemon make lemonade |

This is true. I am forever getting Ruby up at 4am so she can start her preening in time for us to be out of the house by 11am. _________________ www.leedsburlesque.co.uk |

They already know we sleep together and that you tickle my toes!
I didn't tell you did I?, that the other night i was at Adam's, I dreamt that I hugged you in my sleep thinking you were Adam and I then woke up and shouted really loudly to Adam, "im sorry I thought you were Adam" thinking I was shouting and apologising to you"!!
