The ball and chain is out of town for few days so I did today what every red-blooded American male does in this situation: I went shopping at Bed Bath & Beyond for fluffy, white bath towels and a bath mat.

You laugh, but in doing so — and in accordance with my profession as a user experience designer (sounds good, doesn't it?) — I've increased the user experience of the bathroom considerably. The towels and bath mat are so soft that we'll want to take showers and baths endlessly, thereby keeping us superclean. Since returning from the store, I've bathed 4 times already. I can't get enough!
