  5. Samurai Update:

    Well, here it goes. Turns out that I ended up in worse shape than I can handle on my own. I've been away because it became apparent to me that I needed professional help and advice. So, that's what I have been doing. I found myself in a mental place that I wasn't gonna get out without help. So, I asked for some. It's working, but it's not fixed yet. I'll be back, and I haven't disappeared, but honestly just haven't been able to participate here. I'll check in periodically. You guys keep on keeping on, and if you find yourself depressed and angry all the time, get help. Talk to your doctor or family or clergy or all that. They want you to be OK, and they won't judge you for running out of toughness. I'll be lurking... Be well.

  8. Many small improvements are starting to add up!
    Ha, didn't even notice at first that the language changed. :D
    Irritation free shaves are definetly my main goal. Comfort over closeness. The shaves are close enough, but maybe they will get even closer, with some sisu. I'll do the no variety november, good time to do a double check on everything that i've learned so far.
