Warm

My shower seems to have it in for me. Every morning, I get up and shuffle towards it. The temperature is easily set comfortably these days. Wonderful, waking shower, up until I attempt to wash my hair. When I put my head under the water, the cold water disappears completely. And yes, the hot water in the apartment is quite warm. If I wait it out,

Sounds like you've finally noticed the shower elves. You know, the little critters who hide in the pipes and like to change the temperature with abandon. Mine usually go for cold, not hot, though.

There was a movie I saw once, where there was this volcano that had been dormant for years, but started rumbling again. Nobody believed it at first. Near the beginning, there was this scene with a couple, obviously in love, sneaking out to skinny-dip in one of the hot pools left by the volcano. They get in and are snuggling and kissing when all of a sudden, something rumbles beneath them. They cling to each other as you see hot lava shoot from between two rocks near the bottom of the pool. In a later scene, a family go to swim in the pool and see the bodies, burned/melted/looking like pink blobs.

Somehow, whenever the water in my shower turns hot suddenly, I remember this scene and freak.

And they say that TV rots your brain?

Validated and confirmed. .. though it's not *quite* as bad as he claims. (:
