About the shower. I believe I told some Plattsburghers before leaving that I would come home if the water pressure was bad. Yes, I am that much of a baby about my showers. Seriously, if I have to take a shower in a little trickle, it can ruin my entire day. Thankfully the water pressure here is acceptable...but the shower is a control freak. I'm not kidding. Like, the shower has normal faucets that you can turn, one for pressure and one for temperature, but at a certain point there are these little buttons. The handle stops turning at these buttons. If you want to turn the handle more, you have to press and hold the buttons while you turn, which is kind of annoying so it's really more convenient to stop at the buttons. This would be irritating if I had to press the buttons every time I showered, but it's really kind of creepy...because the shower is eerily psychic. HOW DOES IT KNOW to stop me from turning the handle at precisely the right spot? I just turn the handles until the buttons, and I get the ideal shower. Something sketchy is going on here. Sometimes I just want to scald myself so that I get the satisfaction of making my decisions without a machine, but then I realize that burning one's skin hurts. So I don't. I just shower in slight frustration that I'm living my life the way a shower tells me to. Ridiculous, that's what it is.
And today I was biking down to a café/the grocery store with Julia, and we came upon two guys dressed like a lion and a king just walking down the street. It was AMAZING; it pretty much made my day. So I took a picture. Later on we were exploring the park and saw many ridiculous things. The guy dressed like a king was still there, though he had taken off his costume, and we talked to him for a while. He invited us to laser tag tonight, but, uhhh...sketchy. Me hanging out with a lot of Dutch wee ones is kind of more than I want to take on right now hahaha.
