loose in the translation

for almost half a year, i haven't taken a bath:

"looks like you slept in josephine."
"good morning glen. nope, i just took a lazy bath."
"a bath? in the morning?"
"yup. why not?"
"one usually takes bath at night. you don't mean a shower do you?"
"a shower is a bath, isn't it?"
"a bath is when you soak in the tub."
"we don't have a tub at our place."
"you took a lazy shower josephine."
"ok then, i took a lazy shower, glen."

rafa is the reason i watch men's tennis:
interviewer: "there's a lot of interest in your new outfits. some of your fans on the websites don't seem to like them too much, your clothes."
rafa: "what happened? the fans didn't like?"
interviewer: "some of them don't."
rafa: "sorry (laughs). i don't know. no, i am feeling ok. for sure, when you have a change, some people like other people don't like. for sure with the sleeveless, not everybody like the sleeveless. right now gonna be the same, no? but anyway, is a change. but i feel good like this. important thing in the end is not the clothes; is the ball and racket and play well."
rooting for you rafa! may you win the open.
