Razor | Jernbolaget | Cream | Body Shop Macca Root| After Shave | Lavanda

Nice shave this morning after the De Pews debacle. Very smooth; just wish I could tighten these scales; loose scales mess with me. Scales (I think) and the positioning of them relative to the razor; are very important balance wise. Get the scales’ positioning wrong and it can affect your shave.

The cold (or flu or full blown pneumonia or whatever it is) is hanging on and causing a LOT of whingy whiney self pity. I’m self identifying faults. I think I need to. I was reading a paper today on whether narcissistic people can identify the fact that others don’t share the same opinion of them and came to the conclusion (before I’d got to the end of page 2) that I’m narcissistic. I do rather value myself somewhat, possibly unreasonably so. Frank Lloyd Wright said 'Early in life I had to choose between honest arrogance and hypocritical humility. I chose the former and have seen no reason to change.' and I respect him for it...

Would it make you feel any better to know you're on the same page as Joni Mitchell? This from a pretty rare interview she recently gave to the CBC and which was aired yesterday:

Jian Ghomeshi: Do you think too many artists engage in false humility?
Joni Mitchell: "Yes. I'd rather have real arrogance than false humility."

Here's a link for any Joni fans out there: http://podcast.cbc.ca/mp3/podcasts/q...0611_48819.mp3

This is hard to describe: Spicy, slightly powdery, a bit stuffy. But it fits quite well with the fresh scent of Sanders.
