Has anyone ever told you you can solve your problems with a bubble bath?
Someone once told me the bubbles would cure anything.
So today I stopped the drain.
Hot water built up like a dammed river.
A very bubbly river, apparently.
This isn't a common occurance in my life.
So I don't have fancy salts or an inflatable pillow.
Its just me, the bubbles, and my thoughts.
Three is a crowd, it seems.
But I was a good sport and let my mind wander.
What damage could be done by just thinking?
And maybe the bubbles would lead me to a solution.
Magic bubbles, or something.
I arranged my problems in order of priority.
After some consideration, I rearranged them.
More problems popped up and lengthened my list.
This might take a while.
The smell of the bath faded and the water turned cool.
I opened my eyes to find only few bubbles remaining.
All this time and I'm still no closer to peace.
Maybe I should put bubbles in the hot tub next time.
