if all else fails I can wash my hair Indian-style with a bucket and jug
During my ten showerless years before the new!Bathroom I found that the best bet for washing hair was the kitchen sink and my measuring jug. It tends to be the right height for bending over and dunking your entire head of hair in, which the basin in the bathroom and/or the bath seldom are. Full hair dunking is a good thing, and minimises the number of times you have to fill that jug and pour it over your head to rinse the soap out. Also, if the kitchen sink has a mixer tap, they're usually high enough that you can get some of the shower rinse out effect from them too.
But the best of luck in jury-rigging yourself a shower, or at least a shower attachment. :-)
And there's nothing wrong with having a cell phone, provided you let it know where its place is in the general scheme of things, i.e. extremely lowly. Turning it off for long periods of time should do the trick just fine.
