amych - I'm so glad your dog is somewhere inside and warm. . . I can't believe that in this day and age they don't understand that not every married couple has the same name! (What -- are people expected to carry around copies of their marriage license or something?) Totally ridiculous.

Oooookay, this is weird. I walk down the hallway of another department to get to my office everyday. There's one fellow who is this effusive outgoing type who calls people by name in greeting and whatnot. Which is fine. It's sorta glad-handy, which I can find offputting, but whatever, that's my issue.

I just got a very chat-speaky email asking if I'm the sara who charms the hallway as I come and go.

It's....weird.

Random question for those who shave:

Electric razor? or blade?

I've only used a blade, but now I'm wondering how much more convenient an electric one would be...

Blade, Mach3(tm), never found an electric that worked for me.

Yay on the found dog!

How exactly did the electric razors not work for you?

I used my dad's electric once or twice. The screen thingie that covers the blades had a hole in it, so I ended up cutting my face on it.

I just got a very chat-speaky email asking if I'm the sara who charms the hallway as I come and go.

The flinty black cockles of my heart just vomited poisonous bile into my circulatory system.

Blade, but Mr. Jane uses one of those foldy straight razor things.

but Mr. Jane uses one of those foldy straight razor things.

Those are cool, in a "I could totally slit someone's throat with this, just like in a movie" kind of way.

How exactly did the electric razors not work for you?

I can't get as good a shave and it irritates my skin much more than a blade. The irritation probable comes from going over the same spots many, many times trying to get as good a shave as a blade.

Yay safe doggie!
