    Default The Creepy Weeper

    I got up yesterday morning, had breakfast, and got ready to have a good shave after quite a nice one the day before.
    I hadn't looked at my face at all before going into the bathroom to shave. With a face like mine, I minimize any looking at it I have to do.

    I got in the bathroom, looked in the mirror before putting on some hot water, and there it was: a weeper, fully 24 hours after my last shave. It hadn't been there the day before. Can weepers be delayed this long, or did I have a shaving nightmare?

    Is that wife of yours looking at you with a sadistic smirk on her face???! I'm wondering if she might have just done a test run to see if you would wake up easily.

    Now you've really got me worried! Looks like I'll be pulling an all-nighter tonight.

    Is there any chance that your blood had thinned as in a medication, heat or a rise in blood pressure? If you had thinned the skin the shave before then spent most of your time in the cold or had taken a med that thickens the blood it might limit bleeding. Same would be true if you had taken a blood thinner or risen your blood pressure just before your shave. Some foods will act as blood thinners and can change blood pressure too. But all of this would have been evident in the shave the day before I cannot see 24 hours transpiring before this were noticed.

    No mystery here. You probably had a cut and there was a scab which wasn't noticeable and you rubbed it of or it came off somehow and started in again.

    Well, nothing in the way of meds here. Maybe it was in fact something I did in the shave the day before that I didn't notice. Whatever the case I shaved over it this morning and turned it into a proper weeper, so now all is well with the world, eh?

    That would be payback for all of the days that I've ignored her with my mistress (SRP and B&B).

    Default One other thing

    Aspirin can act as a blood thinner as well. Not that I support the 24hr theory but more likely a varicose vein on the face that broke open. People can get them all over. Legs, feet, face and if you get them on your backside their called hemorrhoids.

    Something as simple as rubbing your face with a washcloth or even your hand can break them open.

    I am on aspirin therapy and I have an issue with weepers many hours after a shave even overnight sometimes.

    Same here, plus Plavix and fish oil. I get a weeper here and there but never noticed a delayed one.
