Aches
Since I wrote about the Mirra chair I’ve really come to think about how much my bad seating affects me. Don’t get much done when you have to get up every 15 minutes. Have to do something about that.

This is probably not worth blogging about, but since it’s four in the morning and I don’t have anything better to do I’m going to do just that anyway. First – lacking good, noise free close-ups of it – here’s a blurred and generally weird image of my Chief Wiggum-like nose:

The image is partially to illustrate the affected area, but mostly a filler. Anyway, the whole thing has to do with shaving. I think a good shave often can be one of those good little things, it’s very refreshing, but there is one thing that can make it damned annoying: getting shaving cream up my nose!
I don’t know if my application process is particularly sloppy, but it seems to happen to me about every three or four times I shave. And, to me, having that dab of foamy stuff there is the tactile equivalent of a high frequency ambient noise or that sticky sweet taste in your mouth that sometimes comes after eating ice cream. Not to mention that feeling of a sneeze that never comes.
I could wipe it off, but usually I don’t notice it until I have rinsed my hands and am about to go on with the actual shaving, and poking around there could end up with me having to reapply shaving cream… so I just let it be and stress through the rest of the shave, sometimes managing the feat of cutting myself on a Mach 3 blade – so I can finally get rid of the blob that by then seems to be swelling to horror-film proportions in my nose.
Uhm, to make some sort of point to this… if there’s any representatives of the Gillette brand reading this I’m willing to discuss the sale of my idea for nose-plugs. Otherwise, stay tuned for more drivel. :)
