Finding inspiration in the shower

Inspiration. As defined on merriam-webster.com, it simply "something that makes someone want to do something or that gives someone an idea about what to do or create : a force or influence that inspires someone."
It can also be, "a person, place, experience, etc., that makes someone want to do or create something," or it can simply be "a good idea."
It is essential to us creative types. It can also be extremely elusive... and that is so annoying.
Some people find it in nature. Some find it in something as simple as a sunrise, a sunset or the sound of the waves lapping on the shore. Some of us draw it from far less appealing places... like the bottom of a bottle.
Sometimes inspiration strikes out of the blue. Sometimes it strikes in the strangest of places. Believe it or not, I've heard it even hits some people while they're on the toilet.
But personally, I get my best ideas while I'm in the shower. That's where I came up with the lyrics for the "Dexter's Pile jingle," among other things. It's also where I come up with the topics for a lot of these blog posts -- and I suppose that explains a lot.
Seriously. I don't know why. I guess there's just something about hot water, shampoo, conditioner and soap that sparks my imagination.
What about you? Where do you find your inspiration, and when does it strike? Leave me a comment and let me know.
Until next time, "That's life..."
