The Shower and The Bug

So there's that moment when your in the shower, spacing out, maybe preparing for the long day ahead of you or washing off the stress and grime of the day that's now behind you but either way your just relaxing and life is good. Until you look up and that's when you see it, that intruder in your home, that evil thing put on earth to make your life miserable and torture you in your sleep, the bug!
Yep it's there, making it's way slowly across the ceiling and now you have a choice. You can rush, finish your shower really quick and get out before it gets you. Or you could just slowly back up, get to the other side of the shower and hope it stays away but just as your torn little mind is struggling to make a decision you realize... water! You can drown the darned thing!
So you reach up for the handheld shower head and you start to point it at the offending little creature when you realize, that bug is outside the shower and that water will kill it but it's also going to make a huge mess and flooding your apartment? Maybe not the best idea.
By now you have the shampoo in your hair of course so you close your eyes to rinse it out but when you open them again the bug's gone! It's disappeared! Where is it? Has it gotten inside? Is it close to you now? Or did it leave? How can you know?! You whirl around and have to catch yourself before you slip and just about the time you think your safe you spot it again! It's still on the ceiling but the other side, is it getting closer?
Without realizing it your hand moves, you have to defend yourself right? And with a slightly evil grin you point the showerhead up, up and Mom!!! Could you help clean up this mess?
