Shaving Your Face
I forgot To set my alarm last night and I woke up later than usual. I was Tempted to skip my morning Shave, but I hate having long Stubble all day. I like to be Clean-shaven every day. I’m the kind of guy who gets a Five-o’clock shadow early in the afternoon, so if I skipped my morning shave, I’d look like I was growing a Beard by the end of the day.
I went into the bathroom and picked up my Shaving cream. I Lathered up my face and checked to see that my Razor was Sharp and that I didn’t need to replace the Razor blades. There’s nothing worse than trying to shave with a Dull razor. I tried using an Electric razor for a while, but I could never get a close enough shave.
I tried to focus on shaving my neck, chin, and cheeks. I was in too much of a hurry, though, and Nicked myself on the neck. I hate it when that happens! I knew I was in too much of a hurry, but I was going to be really late. Oh, I did it again! This time I nicked myself on the chin. “Okay,” I said to myself, “slow down. You’d rather be a little late to work than to end up with a face full of Potholes, right?”
