The Power of Shower
Why is it that a simple shower often opens the floodgates for mental acuity?
I can't tell you how many times I've been in the shower and - out of nowhere - a solution to an algorithm I've been working on pops in.
Weird.
This moring was the same - last night I had tried to think of how a TV series (Monk) had ended it's season; I knew there was some twist, it wasn't a normal show.
But I couldn't grasp it.
In the shower - after not thinking about it for approximately 12 hours - bing! - I remembered the ending (he flies to NYC to track down his wife's killer).
Why did it pop in like that? This happens all the time. Maybe I should set up an office in there...
