the human body

the human body is really built inconveniently in some ways... as you may guess basd on this particular blog theme, i specifically refer to the physical need to empty the bladder daily, usually a few times a day or more even if the choice is to drink a healthy amount of fluid, and the need to empty the bowels more or less daily... just look around, everything in our modern culture is built around toilets, bathrooms, rest rooms, water closets, lavatories, johns, or whatever we choose to call the place we leave our excrements... so much plumbing infrastructure and waste management and water usage, fresh water, no less... can you imagine a life without having to poop and pee and wipe and wash every few hours or clean the bathroom, for that matter... more efficient bodies would be nice, and good for the environment too... these are some thoughts that being immobile have inspired lately as every trip to the bathroom and every shower is a painful chore...
