Overall, it was a nice and easy shave. After debating a third pass (just for fun), I stopped after two. Turns out that my chin needed more work, and I had a couple of gotchas - one on my neck with leading blade edge (closed up during the post-shave) and one under my chin due to (a) pressure and (2) angle of attack (showed up afterward). Oh well. Those are the (skin) breaks! If all goes as planned, I'll have another chance in the next day or so.
It's a lazy day here in The Bluegrass with my beautiful Bride, a Hallmark Movies & Mysteries movie marathon, perfect weather, conversations with dear friends, and good food. I am blessed.
Remember, no white pants allowed after today. Don't let it be said that any 30 DC member is guilty of a fashion
faux pas. Note: 30 DC members residing outside the United States and/or Greater Alabama may apply for a fashion exemption by completing the required forms and wiring the 10,000 Ruble fee to the 30 DC Indiana Field Office c/o Dr. Mrs. Primo.
I hope you all have a safe and restful Labor Day.
