Something that always makes me feel like a new person after? Taking a steamy, long, hot shower. Something silly? I almost never do it. I’m usually in and out. Or I’ll skip it completely if I haven’t gone out. The hot water will make my hair oily, I say, or it’ll dry out my skin. But I realized it’s actually because when I was growing up, my parents balked at the idea of racking up the water and gas bill. That is so ingrained in me, I feel guilty taking a long shower. Like I shouldn’t waste that money, like I don’t deserve it. Something I’ve had to work on.
