A shave and shoes

So... I shaved my face yesterday. I don't really know why. Maybe it was the conversation the day before - I don't know. But don't go thinkin' this is going to be an everyday thing. I did it this once; whether I do it again or not is still up in the air. The last time I shaved shaved was in October 2008. I wrote about it here. I tried to grow it out long, but that didn't work too good. So I've just been trimming it once or twice a week. That is so much easier.

It does always feel good to shave. Until the next day. Then my face breaks out, or at least gets sore. And it's even worse if I only shave a few times a week. That's why it has been nice to have a beard. But my face feels cold today.

I also started the search for a new pair of running shoes yesterday. I've had my current pair for a couple of years and a few too many miles (you can read about that purchase here - July 15, 2008). They still look ok, but there can't be much support left. I tried on several pairs at Kohl's, actually, and one pair of Asics felt pretty good. They were also much cheaper than at the running store. So... we will see. I'm sure I will try on 20-or-so other pairs, but I am moving in that direction now...

Eh... it's been a weird couple days. That's all I'm sayin' about that.

Peace out; and in.
