It would certainly be more practical, Mademoiselle, as well as save on
enzyme cleaners for the clothes. Not to mention, it might have the effect of stunning the victim first and rendering them helpless. (with laughter, in my case).

my key to after the shower is....
...to dry myself so that i don't feel "wet and weird"...maybe still weird, but the wet part is no longer. also i have weird feelings too...like (and this has something to do with a book i want to write) if i was to meet Robin Hood, i would call an insane asylum and move him to Kansas.

Mademoiselle, actually I only get that weird feeling after I've attempted
to wash off the blood in the shower. (Sort of a combination of Items 1 and 3 on your list). Just kidding. Sort of.

Well, you are completely right.
I shouldn't have shared her story so publically like that. Even though, when she told me about her period problem, I almost laughed. I am so sorry Liz. Oh NO! Please, everybody, her name is not ELIZABETH! Is not!
ps. I keep it in my private diary. In that case, I also have about ten of them.

I have never
felt weird in the morning. The closest thing would be uncomfortable, especially if there was someone sleeping next to me. Even if they were sleeping on the floor, I'd wake up instantly uncomfortable.
So one of ex-housemates was (still is) a Catholic who professed to me (in tears! in other words, she opened up to me! HAHAHA! I noted down all the things to be used against her. :P) that her mother once prayed for her period to come on time. (Hmm.. so she had period problem... check!) And a couple days later, it came. She said that was a miracle, in a serious manner. Okay, so by day, she's this Catholic, by night, she'd go downtown party all night. This one morning she woke up from a blackout on the floor (thank goodness, it wasn't in my room) and peed her pants. That must have been a weird feeling- she technically should have transformed back to a Catholic by then. Meet the whore and the Catholic!
I noted that episode down in diary, too. Check!

And that one scene where Mel Gibson is trying to "look" under the door with the spoon (to see if anyone's in the next room) ... is one of the five scariest scenes I've
ever seen.

When I wake up feeling strange, it is usually because I drank way too much tequilla the night before and I'm scared to look beside me to see who might be there.

Maybe it would be best to keep a tranquilizer gun on oneself at all times, just in case one should find oneself caught amidst a pack of hungry lions. This could also apply to bears, killer whales, and tax attorneys. You just never know.

Addendum:
Sometimes somebody writes something that seems fairly casual to them, but it might mean something completely different to the reader. The Road Not Taken, by Robert Frost, springs to mind. He insists that the poem was written simply about a journey through the woods. Yeah, sure Bob, right right right.
As for me, I think it boils down to three oft spoken but seldom experienced words:

What if saving him meant suicide for him later? What if it was the other way around? What if you discovered that the ball the lions chase is made of glass? What if all of it is illusion, and the pain we experience amounts to nothing more than what we create for ourselves? Like Saint Elmo's Fire: Unpredictable, it appears to assault us from nowhere when we least expect it.
