The previously unconcidered hazards of having children Number 432:

I have forgotten how to run a hot bath. After 3 and a half years of running baths of a suitable temperature for kids I have lost the abilility to make myself a hot bath. I set one running then nip off to to X, Y, and Z; timing my tasks nicely so that I return in time to find a full bath. A full tepid bath. Again! Cold tap running full pelt. Every fucking time. And if there are two facts everyone knows about luke-warm baths they are:
  1. They're no fun
  2. It's impossible to add enough hot water to get it comfortable. (The whole boiling a frog slowly thing.)

  1. I wish you could come to the socialist hottub with me. It's open 24-7, it's 104F and there are naked people.

    I just got a working code to get in the gate again recently. I felt I had been allowed back into Eden.

  2. Naked people? What are they again?
