Umm... I thought this was normal?

I never had any intentions of posting this tidbit because I figured everyone did this.  However, after it came up somehow (??) in conversation with my good friend, Lisa, I discovered that I may be wrong. 
Still, I wasn't going to post this.  
But after some very flattering words like "brilliant" and "amazing" (I may have made that one up... but they were flattering words...) and after much coercion, I decided I would indeed share this tip.  Just in case you don't already all know about this amazing time and sanity saver.  You really should.
But, there will be no photos.  Um, nope.  None.

I have been doing this forever.  I imagine it started one day when I had a "hand wash only" bra sitting by the bathroom sink, patiently waiting to be washed.  I hate hand washing bras - it makes a mess.  You have to use soap because of how close it is worn to your skin. So really it is 1) soak 2) soap 3) scrub 4)rinse 5) rinse again to really get the soap out 6) hang dry somewhere where all the dripping won't make a big mess.  
It's a total pain, you know it is.  
So, I imagine that I was getting in the shower and decided - what the heck - I'll just wash it while I'm in the shower anyway.  I already do swimsuits this way, after a chlorine soak at the pool.  
And you know?  It works fantastic.  I just use my shower gel and really give it a good hand cleaning. 
The mess is contained and then you can just leave it hanging in the shower to dry. 
So easy.  
Are you already doing this?  Or is it just me?
