Razor is new in the box and shave ready.

From Ulysses, this being Bloomsday:

"Stately, plump Buck Mulligan came from the stairhead, bearing a bowl of lather on which a mirror and a razor lay crossed."

* * * * * *

"-For what personal purpose could Bloom have applied the water so boiled?

To shave himself.
-What advantages attended shaving by night?
A softer beard: a softer brush if intentionally allowed to remain from shave to shave in its agglutinated lather: a softer skin if unexpectedly encountering female acquaintances in remote places at incustomary hours: quiet reflections upon the course of the day: a cleaner sensation when awaking after a fresher sleep since matutinal noises, premonitions and perturbations, a clattered milkcan, a postman's double knock, a paper read, reread while lathering, relathering the same spot, a shock, a shoot, with thought of aught he sought though fraught with nought might cause a faster rate of shaving and a nick on which incision plaster with precision cut and humected and applied adhered which was to be done."

thanks Dave!!

Rough shave today for some reason... Hmmm

Red tip with astra SP (maybe should have gone with a Personna blue I'm used to in that razor...)
Atg menthol preshave
Palmolive cream
Alum
Shea moisture AS tonic
Nivea sensitive ASB
Ponds moisturizer on the tender areas.
I can't explain the shave being so rough...
May e prep, maybe blade, I dunno.
Might even have to take a day of because of this one...
