It's still been a lot of fun trying to learn to shave with these cool looking razors, but I still have yet to change my morning routine around to give me some shaving time. I'm just so used to trying to fly through shaving for so many years, that I just haven't been able to get it through my head yet.

I've done a little better, but I still haven't given myself nearly enough, and almost always feel pretty rushed for the actual shave, so I can strop before/after, get it out of the safe/put it back in the safe to keep the 4yr. old from disaster, etc.

Even without the childproofing, it's like a ritual almost with many parts. I like that a lot, but I'm still blowing it on giving myself the extra 30 minutes, or whatever.

So I end up cutting the worst corner possible to make up for it, and getting extra cuts on the days where I can't make my hands work well enough to keep up. The shave looks like crap compared to when I give myself time as well.

I'm sure it will work itself out eventually, but I think till I get my actual routine down pat I'll be getting up a little earlier from now on.
