Multitasking in the bathtub

How many people multitask in the bath? And I don't mean shaving while leaving our conditioner in for two minutes. Lots of people read, there are even handy little book rack that you can hook on the edges of the tub, so that you don't get the pages wet. And lots have the music on. Some of us talk on the phone, just don't drop it, trust me.
How about watch TV? Why not? I know a lady that tilted the TV in her bedroom, so that she can watch TV in bed, and when the en suite door is open, watch from the tub! Genius right, glass of wine, good movie and a warm bath!
I have tape over my web cam, because I go online when I'm lounging in the bath. Do I need to have tape over the web cam? I don't really know, but I feel better that way. Plus, I can blog, update Facebook, check out movie reviews, write an e-mail to grandma, and research which jewelry kiln I want to buy, all from the comfort of a pleasant smelling, bubbly bath!
Some people sleep in the bath. Two problems though... you go to sleep warm, wake up in cold bath water. Yuck! Also, it is very disturbing to know that someone is in the bath, but they won't answer you when you ask them how long they will be. Even more disturbing, when you stick your head in the door, and they still don't answer you. Then you look and realize, that it looks like they are fully submerged! So you rush in, panicking and pull their head out of the water, only for them to gasp fearfully, as they are wrenched from peaceful slumber, to look into someone's terrified face, then you quickly realizes that they are OK. And naked. And you are there, soaking wet, having burst in upon them, naked, in the bathtub. Awkward, very awkward I tell you.
I do not sleep in the bathtub.
What else could one accomplish while in the bath? Paint, draw? I don't think that would go very well. I'm imagining water warped pages and possible tinted bath water? Anything to do with photographs would be a bad idea, they don't generally get along with water. Have you ever tried writing? Wouldn't the angles be all wrong? I don't think it would be comfortable. Food prep? Bahahaha! Just joking!
