Where'd I leave off? Oh, yes, three weeks of shaves is a lot to put a blade through, and the quality of the shave is reflecting that. I don't think I've gone this long without changing a blade since cartridge days. Remember that? A single cartridge cost, what, eighty dollars? So you'd just keep using it until the flimsy blades just wore down to nothing? Something like that, anyway; I don't know.
Now that we've hit the two-thirds mark, the month almost feels as good as over! Obviously, I'm getting ahead of myself; the blade will continue to struggle on, its wear dubiously mitigated by occasional "strops" across the edge of my, uh... ball of my thumb? No, wait... Thenar eminence. Needless to say, too, face-lathering won't be helping the whole situation.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go off and carry on with Sunday things. Like whipping up an experimental concoction of eggs, ricotta, and pesto that kind of looks like salsa. Artemis is interested, but that's no kinds of good for a kitty; dairy's generally a bad thing because most cats are lactose intolerant, and garlic/onions are straight-up toxic, causing nasty damage to their internal organs. But I digress.
Oh, right, the addition of pesto is the experimental part of that. Maybe I added too much or didn't mix the settled pesto enough, but the end result was a bit too oily for my taste. Still good, though. The rest of it was adapted from this little video from You Suck At Cooking. Sure, that guy has a habit of recycling jokes, but it's still funny and there's a lot of good stuff in those videos that I've picked up for use in my kitchen. No real reason for plugging that other than that it came to mind because I just made breakfast!
