Ughh. Had a long hot shower to try and manage pain. It's a huge waste of water and the least environmentally friendly habit I have but unfortunately it's not going anywhere.

Not a waste, needed for your wellbeing. Besides, Melbourne water storage is at 92% and Summer’s over, rainy autum and winter ahead. There’s no need to ration water right now. Any excess just gets released out of the dams.

That's good to know.

I envy people with those outdoor bathtubs they build a fire under

It's not a waste, it's treatment, it's quality of life care.
