Precision Load; Face Lather; WTG/ATG/Cleanup Passes; DFS Result; 20th Consecutive / 294th Overall SOTD Post

Yesterday's matchup non-selectee is today's choice, so SBS Prom King it is. My lather was fantastic - super slick and protective. The blade, on the other hand, was not fantastic. As I was shaving in our bathroom, Mrs Worried (who was about 12 away in the adjoining bedroom) asked me why my razor sounds like sandpaper. I knew that the blade sounded scrapy, but I didn't realize how loud it had become. The blade was noticeably less efficient today, and I needed significantly more strokes during cleanup to achieve DFS. No weepers yet with this blade, but I did end up with some irritation. Hopefully this is a one-day-one thing, otherwise it'll be time for a new blade. Happy shaving and have a wonderful day.
