ouch ouch ouch
I, being the big girl that i am, have never had a shaving accident.
Today marks the end of the accident-free era.
I was in my usual routine - rushing to get in the shower, rushing to get dress, and rushing to get to work. The key here being "rushing".
I can shave my underarm with soap in my eyes - I've done it so many times! I don't use shaving cream because the can always rust and leave a nasty ring on my otherwise already dirty bathtub. So body wash and water it is.
This morning was no different.
Turned on the shower, hopped in, washed my hair, conditioned my hair, squeezed some butter cocoa body wash on the loofah, stuck the loofah under my arm and let it get all soapy, shaved, scrubbed the rest of the parts, rinsed, jumped out.
Toweled my dripping hair. Wiped dry. Put on lotion, face moisturizer. And last but not least. deodorant.
DEODORANT!!!
That's when the first sting came. I about passed out. Raised my arm up and stared at the mirror. "WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THAT RED BLOTCH?!".... "BLOOD"!
Argh. I tried using a band aid, it wouldn't stay on. Argh. I guess i had no choice but to suck it up.
I wonder how awful it'll be tomorrow knowing that i have to go to the gym and get all sweaty. Somehow i don't think the sweat will sting as much as my deodorant. Darn alcohol.
