Dear Diary

Today, while perfecting my shampoo mohawk in the shower,  I was thinking about some weird habits that I keep, only because I think they’re funny (i.e. daily shower mohawk).  Some others include drawing a picture on the fogged door every morning before exiting the shower (this morning’s was a landscape with a teepee), dispensing my moisturizer into my hand in the shape of a wiener (see above photo), and wearing high heels when I clean my room.  I have a friend that gets dressed, puts his cologne on in all the usual places first, and then sprays his butt once, because it’s funny.Even though these tasks are meaningless additions to our days, and often a waste of time, I think actions like these can drastically improve one’s outlook on their day.I assume everyone has their own version of these quirks, but if not, they should.
