I also get a ton of story connections when I take time to watch movies. And yes, ALL the best ideas happen in the shower. I think we should trade around URLs for the best shower notebooks!

This often sends me into a dream zone where I daydream about ideas or a scene I need to revise. Animal therapy is awesome!

Specifically, getting outside, and eavesdropping. Sooo many good short story ideas get in my head by catching snippets of this and that.
