I always forget about my naval. When I was younger I would never wash behind my ears.

Sometimes I tell myself I’m gonna get in, soap up, rinse, get out, two minutes tops.

Then I’m just standing there in the hot water ten minutes later. Knowing l’ll be late for work if I don’t move. And just standing there, trying to somehow soak up enough heat to internalize the comfort and make it mine.

But it’s not mine.

Maybe you could switch to evening showers?

Pros: luxuriate in there as long as you want, feel comforted, more sleeping in.

Cons: idk, I love an evening shower. Drying your hair before bed I guess?

Also Pro: The bed stays clean longer

What if I like the smell of my own man-musky bed?

I sweat buckets in my sleep so an evening shower is basically useless for not stinking during the day.

I just slap on a hair wrap and let the hair dry by itself.

My building has unlimited hot water…
