So yesterday I took a shower at Ahmed's house..or I tried to, at least. Imagine this: there is a bath tub (you know, a regular nice bath tub), which has in it like a 10-15 gallon bucket, and then inside that is a small bowl. There is a faucet, and connected to that is a shower head on a flexible pipe.
Well, I tried to turn the little knob that would let water come through the shower head, and the knob came off, and shot cold water everywhere. Instead of turning the water off, I tried to put the knob back on. Brilliant, I know. Anyway, I get that taken care of and still need to decide what to do with this bucket. My feet are leaving prints on the tub, and as I wasn't sure what the bucket was for or why it had water in it when I first got into the bathroom, I went ahead and emptied the bucket, put some water in it and stood in the bucket itself, so that you wouldn't be able to tell that I stood in the tub, just in case I wasn't supposed to. Not wanting to use too much water, I got my washcloth wet, watered myself down, did the whole soap thing, and then rinsed off as best I could with my washcloth. Thankfully, the faucet in the sink in the bathroom has a high arch, so I've been washing my hair in that. Note to self though: keep my hair short. I think it could be a real hassle to have shaggy hair.
