bathrooms

My mum sings in the shower, so when i was small(and i mean REALLY small)i thought she did that because the shower head was a snake,and when she was singing,the snake was happy and did not spit poison,but if she dident sing,the snake would get hangry(thats hungry and angry)and would poison her and eat her.This was so embarrising when she wasen't singing in the shower.

I used to be terrified of taking baths because I was afraid that a giant shark would come up the drain and eat me.

When I was little my older brother told me that the monster dimension was on the other side of the mirror and that they would get me if I used the bathroom with the lights off. 15 years later and I still have to turn on the lights before entering the bathroom

i used to think there was a ghost in my shower when the shower curtains were closed and i would be in the bathroom.

I believed that if you didn't wash yourself right after exercising the sweat would absorb back to your body and make the exercise ineffective.

As a child I thought that to drown in the bathtub meant that somehow you would go down the drain. Didn't really see how that was possible.

I used to believe that if you bathed with the light off at night, when you pull the plug out a hippo would come up into the bathroom through the drain.

I believed there were a family of little people who lived in my grandparents medicine closet.....

When I was small and allowed to set up the bathwater myself I believed that the water could get so hot that it would finally freeze.

When I was little, sometimes my mom would let me use her bathroom (to take bubble baths with my Barbies). Sometimes, I see thin, brown, coiled layers in the toilet bowl. I would get terrified, thinking that there was a disgusting snake living in our pipes who came up into the toilet to shed his old skin. Actually, these thin, coiled layers were shavings from my mom sharpening her eye pencil and forgetting to flush it away.

for some dumb reason, I used to think that after you took a bath, you had to drain the tub and refill it with some special concoction for your skin and you had to soak in it. This little after-bath thing was called a "nine". I have no idea where I got that idea from.

Somehow I was raised washing my hands in cold water, even though today my parents use warm. I used to believe that most people used cold, and that using warm water made you a weirdo. I finally realized the truth on a sixth grade field trip, but I still get very irritated when the water in public restrooms comes out hot at first courtesy of the "weirdo" :) who used the sink before me.

I used to love sloshing about in the bathtub, but I thought that if I overdid it, I would summon up "the Kraken", a huge, blood-red octopus with fangs. So, whenever I thought that i might be sloshing uncontrollably, I would hop out for a minute or two.
