Like all of us, I have a demanding job, a family and little time to spend by myself and there's nothing I like more than a hot bath. A long, indulgent soak in enough water to drown a large village at a temperature that Satan himself would be cautious of entering is something that I allow myself every few days.
I take with me my iPad, a cup of tea and lay there for around two hours or so, occasionally topping myself up from the red coloured tap using my toes buying stuff I don't need from websites I don't trust enjoying music that is way outside the listening demographic of my ever-aging mind.
It has been said however that soaking in nuclear-heated water can be really bad (like really, really bad) for skin and really really really bad for psoriatic skin.
I like showers in the same way (hot hot) but invariably spend less time as I am on my way to work.
I haven't noticed that my skin is dryer, more itchy or inflamed as it usually is but the powers that be (have you met my wife?) insists that it does. After hauling my usually pink carcass from the depths of the tub and leaving behind me a trail of mist that can only be likened to a Bollywood movie, the only difference I feel is deep in my soul. Calm, relaxed and at one with myself and the steam I have left dripping from the ceiling.
I'm not entirely sure now whether this post is a statement or a question. Either way, I would be interested to hear what you have to say.
Fin.
