Don't you just hate it when...

[The Pontificator]

You are overdue for a shave but a stash of new shaving soaps you ordered last week is not due to be delivered until tomorrow?

You are overdue for a shave but a stash of new shaving soaps you ordered last week is not due to be delivered until tomorrow?

Or brush, or blades...

 

[South Dakota Guy]

I shave daily so not much of a problem for me.

 

[poppi]

Not a problem. Use what's on hand and pick up the new stuff when it get there.

 

[nemo]

Doesn't bother me. I've got plenty of soaps, lots of patience, and that beard just keeps on growing for tomorrow.

I don’t get it. I shave today and again tomorrow.

 

[thombrogan]

@The Pontificator , you have no soap, shaving cream, hair conditioner, or oil on hand? Or you wanted to use your recently ordered wonder soap and anything less would’ve been a calamitously vulgar disappointment?

 

[karacha]

Shave daily, problem solved. How can you be overdue for a shave?!

 

[The Pontificator]

I only shave at most frequent every other day and usually every third day. Facial hair growth has always been pretty slow.

Yes indeed!

But, ‘Absence makes the heart grow fonder!’ And there is always another day! (And some other quote that I cannot quite remember.)

 

[thombrogan]

Which soap in your pending stash is slated to be used first?

 

[Atlantic59]

Go ahead and shave using what you have on hand, but just do one pass.

 

[The Pontificator]

"just do one pass."

Now why didn't I think of that?

Just as well I went ahead and did a 3-pass shave. Damn package from Sudsy is according to USPS "in transit arriving late".

 

[Atlantic59]

Damn package...is according to USPS "in transit arriving late".

That's been happening a lot lately. My resupply package went into that state twice and a normal 3-day shipping time took 8 days. No explanation from USPS, just "in transit".

 

[sliwolf]

I have a package in transit from MD since November. I live in Georgia.

 

[The Pontificator]

Sudsy Soapery stuff finally arrived yesterday and wow do they smell great.

(Bay & Citrus, Sandalwood and Citrus with Turmeric)

Very complex aromas both of them. Damn...cannot decide which to use first. Maybe lather half the face with each?

You are waiting for new stuff to arrive!
Today, Amazon should deliver a bottle of Bay Rhum A/S.
Between 27 Jan and 05 Feb the USPS will deliver a package with 28 tucks of assorted blades.
