Finally taking the time to post today's shave. Went with the ole tried and true 6S. Might say this is almost the Vector of DE shaves. Did ya'll see they released a blacked out 6S? I want that bad, but been spending enough on pen stuff I didn't order one. And went with the Oatmeal Stout because I've been jealous seeing a bunch of the cadre pulling it out recently.

Busy day today. With lots of meetings and getting out late. Did get a free lunch out of the deal. Looking forward to a downhill slide (I hope) for the ending of the week.
I was looking at that, but having never tried one I am very hesitant to pull the trigger. I tried a full Timeless kit with all the options in a passaround with everyone being sure I'd love it, but I honestly wasn't all that impressed. I got better shaves from other razors costing a lot less. So now I'm really gun shy about jumping into an expensive razor no matter how cool it looks.
 
I see you jumped in with the rest of us with the Roasted Oatmeal Stout! Probably one of my favorite smelling shave soaps!

Well, I'm here. That's about all I can say. I have the man flu. Came pretty close to skipping the shave today, but it was three and out with the 6S. I wouldn't be at work, but I said I'd cover my boss for a lunch time meeting. So when that's over, I'm outta here. But you guys need to entertain me until then. Today is also our anniversary, so I'll need to get to the store to buy appropriate items for said occasion.
 
Well that was....something to watch.


LOL, just kidding. Thanks Dave.
 
man flu? is that something that will keep you from getting into trouble for giving convenience store boxed chocolates and a paper flower as your anniversary gift?
