Shaving and Scotch

#1 Post by Spock » Sat Aug 15, 2020 8:39 am

2 of the things I decided to treat myself to after 50.

I take a sip of scotch now and then, but yesterday turned out to be my once a year or so shave at the barbers with the straight razor.

I found myself in town with a few days growth and starting to need a haircut so I used the excuse.

Haircut $12 and shave $8.

It hurts during the shave-but boy does it feel good afterwards-highly recommended.

barber said my whiskers are like wire bristles-(but, he says that to all the boys-LOL) I think it hurt more because of the stage of growth-a few days longer and they would have started to soften up.

If life was fair-I would not have to shave for another month.

A beautician that we know would like to come sometime when I get a shave and watch as she has never seen it done before.

I haven't shaved since I turned 65.

I drink Scotch only at gatherings when I don't want to drink much, I don't like it.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
