OK. So I have to ask the question. Who goes to bed dirty? Recently I was discussing this with my family and then again it came up around an event where time is reserved in the morning for showering and getting ready.
It made me think again … WHO GOES TO BED DIRTY? I mean come on people that’s NASTY. I am interested in who does this (so I can avoid you … ha ha ha). It seriously bothers me. Maybe it shouldn’t. Maybe it is one of those “negotiable preferences” but to me it is just … Yuck.
Your bed is supposed to be a refuge. A nice, cool, clean place where restful sleep recharges your batteries and sweet dreams dance in your head. Climbing into a nice clean bed after a nice hot shower all clean and ready for rest … oh man … it just doesn’t get much better than that. I just hate going to bed without taking a shower or bathing. Somehow it just goes against how I was raised I guess. You took a shower BEFORE you went to bed. If you didn’t Mom would start yelling, “What are you gross? Take a bath before you go to bed. You’ve been outside playing all day/night!” Thanks Mom for the great advice.
I’m sure I’ll get some flaming responses on Facebook or here on the blog but I stand to the defense of my position. Take a shower before you go to bed people. I just get grossed out thinking about it. Icky.

Growing up I always bathed before bed. I don’t remember when I quit but as an adult I shower in the morning as part of my daily routine. If I’m doing outside work or just feel gross before bed then I’ll shower at night but I don’t prefer it. A shower also helps wake me up in the morning.
You seem like a pretty clean person Jon so no harm no foul. Ha! Get it??? Hoping you are all well these days.
Vince, I shower pretty much every night before I go to bed. I love going to bed in fresh clean sheets. But I will tell you that you sound a little obsessive in this
Cheers my friend and brother

I agree. Clean sleeping. Yes my wife would probably agree that I obsess about sleeping. I am a light sleeper. If the fan noise isn’t just right or if it is too hot or cold (I prefer cold) or there is an odd noise … I just can’t sleep. So yeah … This is one area I am probably too obsessed about.
Have a great holiday weekend my friend.
