I intended to use my kamisori this morning but had one of those mostly sleepless nights so I didn't trust myself with it. I wasn't going to do a video, so why risk blood if there isn't any upside?

Well, Gear's comments yesterday made me sad to realize I don't have a single free lunch this week. I do have to go to Costco, so maybe I'll make that run around lunch time. Rumor has it they replaced their churro with a big chocolate chip cookie.

See.....at first I was a bit jealous of the beautiful patina on Bougie's copper lather bowl...I have one exactly like it (well...not exactly...they are hand made so....its very similar) and mine still has a shiny copper finish. Bougie's looks like its nearly Statue of Liberty green.....and then it occurred to me.......I lack the unique environment that Bougie's bowl resides in: A very fine layer of salt air, combined with jet fuel, cigar smoke....fumes from Warehouse One and an unidentified aroma I like to call....Oud de Silliness.

I am sure if you ask nice he will send you a container of “Bougie Air”. Otherwise. Peroxide bath with Lemon juice, salt and vinegar will speed it up

Busy week at work, I don't like it. At least the meetings I need to run or present at will be done today. I did have to run to the lawyer yesterday so amend my will. In addition to Stefan getting any open bottles in Warehouse 1, and all contents of the refrigerator, I also added that he get my copper shaving bowl. I know, it might be a bit too much, but I'll be dead and not have to put up with his entitlement after getting such a largesse.

Oop, I thought I was only one day behind. Dave keeps distracting me with peer pressure to buy another watch. I say, "Dave, I already own a watch, why would I possibly need more than one"? Some lovely shaves recently though. And got my PIF award sent off. Nearly 10lbs of free shaving stuff! Today Gear tells me to go towards the light. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not, but it has to be better than another day at work either way.
