Warning! Context Matters.

"I need to go take a cold shower."




Context:

My mother had been putting decorations on the Christmas tree. She likes to have them "just so".... She had been working on it for some time while dressed in a wind suit and maneuvering right under an air vent blowing heat.

I've never been so thankful to be sitting in the living room working on hubby's computer knowing what she had been up to....

Context definitely matters.
