Slept in until 8:20 and decided to give the straight a go. Post shower, I stropped the Lunawerk about 60 or 70 laps....and boy, did I feel rusty after two and a half months....I worked on the MWF soap for about a minute and lathered up and then placed a hot wash cloth on my face...boy does that ever feel good. Then after about a minute and a half I face lathered for real and got to work. I was able to do a decent WTG on both cheeks, the neck and even my chin (uh-oh...slight nick there...not paying enough attention :ashamed2: ) then decided to finish up with the Tech/Feather combo. Sometimes I feel like I need a little alcohol sting so I added the Florida water to the routine today. I went with the WoW as it seems to follow the Florida water with little contradiction (if that's the right word). It felt good to use the straight again.

I know I've said it before, but seriously, the greatest shave ever. And for the first time ever, my face got this lovely warm feeling afterwards, no soreness, no menthol, no nicks, no weepers, nothing. Just BBS and glowing. DAMN it feels good to be alive!
All the best, my good friends.
