Burning through the soap at a frantic rate. Don't feel I've made the perfect lather with it yet. Didn't chase BBS and got a very nice shave. Monday looms - bummer.

Nice shave tonight. Evening shaves leave me little opportunity to wear the Barba.
 
I'm in the mood for Leonard Cohen this morning. He's one of my favorite artists.

And lest you think I am irreligious:
Perhaps Mr Cohen's most covered and influential song. If you like this, check out KD Lang's version - it is a beautiful homage. It is significant, I think, that no covered version deviated whatsoever from the original tune - it is beautifully covered by a host of musicians, male and female.

New soap, new blade, good shave! My wife's asthma with its bronchospasms preclude me from using scented AS, so I packed up my good-smelling ones and shipped them off.

I'd nearly forgotten how good Shannon's Soaps are. Lathers easily, cushion and glide are there. Love the smell of the mostly lemon-flavored soap. I smell clean and lemony fresh!
 
I wonder if the fleeting nature of a Koloniya would allow you some post shave scent without bothering your wife’s allergies? 🤔

That's something she can't help, asthma with its bronchospasms aren't just an inconvenience, it's a very serious health issue. I would avoid anything that causes her problems.
