If the stars are aligned, moon in the first quarter and a black cat crosses the street at 2:00am you might get lucky and he'll take a shower. He generally uses the once-white-but-now-brown soap that he stores on the floor. He completely soaks the bathroom floor, I'm not sure how, but we're hoping it's water and that he leaves the shower door open while he's showering.
