Shaving

I'm going to be upfront - I hate shaving! But I'm in a bit of a quandary, because I can't stand having a beard either. After 3 or 4 days, I feel like I need a flea dip. Camping for 4 days made me and sasquatch look like we may have had the same mother. Boy, that first shower after getting home from camping sure feels good. I had developed a protective crust over my body. Now, our shower head has multiple settings, so I found the one that works like a Water Pik works for your teeth, and turned it on full throttle, and held on! That things blasts through concrete body funk, into orifices not easily reached. I think that word, 'orifice', is a funny word. What do you think of when you hear the word, 'orifice'? Back to shaving. Shaving was torture in its most heinous form. I always start with my neck. Mind you, I put a brand new razor in with the 3 blades and the blue comfort strip. Comfort strip my @$#! I now know what skinning a grizzly feels like! As I'm sawing through my beard, it sounded just like that. A hand saw cutting through wood! By the time I was finished with my neck, the brand new blade was screaming for mercy and so was I! Well, I plowed through and completed the the whole nightmarish ordeal. Afterward, I noticed that I got a little bit of sunshine while being outdoors for the majority of 4 days, and had my farmer tan working for me. Except the area I just shaved. Yup, albino white. Get me a pair of floppy clown shoes, I'm off to join the circus.

  1. Did my friend Kevin just ask me what i think of when i hear the word 'ORIFICE'? Wow. Actually,....he's right it is a funny word.
    Orifice, o-r-i-f-i-c-e, oriFICE. I've now said the word so much that it has no meaning. (And really, with that word isn't once enough.)
    signed, Ken (as in the doll)
    (as in the guy without...well...an orifice.)
