What I'd like is for some big fat publisher to sit in my tub and make the water rise!

:)

hmmm... my bathtub has a ring in it!


Thanks for posting that, though, that's cool. I like it!

that was a really good post....i'm at the point where i just got my faucet put in

Posted 6/24/2009 4:36 PM |  

That's a rather disturbing visualization ;-)

I'm still remodeling and wonder if it'll ever be finished.

One of my bathtubs is used for bathing and meditating. The other one is used for storage.

I was so sure you were going to say, "The other one is my 'luv tub'.", Mr. Battles.

Battles, start filling up the storage tub first. All that debris must surely make it fill faster!

Not to get too philosophical, but does the writer ever go in the tub or just accumulate water?

Posted 6/25/2009 9:29 AM |  

If we get to climb in, I'm going to start super sizing...and get a really shallow tub.

Posted 6/25/2009 9:42 AM |  

Yeah!!! I loved that! Thanks for posting it, sorry I reposted after Nichel sent it, but at least we can all say we have something in our tubs. :) Hi CC, I'm good.

I think I'd like a boat and a few ducks in my tub. Aromatherapy candles along the sides would be nice.

So glad you're doing better, London. =) We all need support for sure and I think ducks and aromatherapy candles adds to the metaphor.

Can I fill my tub with Gin?

Posted 6/25/2009 12:35 PM |  

Only if a life guard is on duty.

The analogy my mom uses is that there can also be holes in your tub. So, for example, you get a really crappy critique that drives you down, that is like putting a hole in your tub. You have to then find a way to fix that hole so you don't lose all your water. As well, there can be several faucets. Anything that helps you or fills you up, can be a faucet. A conference that renews you, awesome comments from a crit parnter, etc.

I'll be damned. I just discovered two more bathrooms I didn't even know I had. Ain't that a bitch?

Posted 6/26/2009 3:29 PM |  

Heck, I am in the process of building two new ones -- who's sorry now. :)

Posted 6/26/2009 3:39 PM |  

What is this, "bathroom" of which you speak? You mean, um... I'm supposed to do it in a room???

Posted 6/26/2009 3:54 PM |  

Rodney, hopefully they're showers. :)

Posted 6/26/2009 3:58 PM |  

I don't know about you guys, but I'm worried about where exactly Bones' tub is. Let's just hope wherever he is, there'll be no indecent exposure involved.

Posted 6/26/2009 5:00 PM |  

LOL! london. I'm more worried about his comment, "You mean, um... I'm supposed to do it in a room????" What exactly is the it he is doing in the tub...besides imbibing, that is?

Posted 6/26/2009 7:45 PM |  

Well, my mom has a tub in her back yard. I have one full of cardboard boxes that has no faucet...why can't Bones have one full of Gin? It sounds like more fun. Maybe a little stingy if you have a cut... Hey Bones, maybe you call it the Loo or Washroom or Powderroom or Lavatory or...what are some more? Outhouse? Little boys' room? Tinkertorium? Men's room?

Posted 6/26/2009 8:44 PM |  

I call it Sanctuary, actually. lol.

Laughter ain't milk, but it does a body just as good.
