    Taking a shower at night has always been my practice and in the past I have gone to bed with my hair wet.  You can imagine how "beautiful" I look when I crawl out of bed.  In the morning I would rewet my hair and blow it dry.  During the Eco Challenge I have changed this habit and have begun drying my hair right out of the shower.  It saves water and my mornings are less crowded with tasks to finish before work.

    I missed taking the 5 minute shower today but only because I shave in the shower.  I have a new challenge to find a better way of completing that task without using more water.  :)
