When I was in the shower this morning, the sensation of water hitting my skin was a little different than usual. (Hang in there, I promise this won't be more than you can handle!) It literally hurt as the water ran over my legs. When I looked down I swear to you it looked like fur was growing on them. I don't know what happened to me, but I seriously must have forgotten to shave my legs for about a month. I don't have super hairy legs and I'm not super religious about shaving in the winter but this went to new levels even for me. I don't know how this escaped my notice!
Fortunately, I was up a little early for work so I could tackle this problem head on. Unfortunately, the last time I bought razors, I went the cheap route... because it's winter. I started hacking at my legs, desperately trying to rid them of the redwood forest of growth, and two razors later, I was finally rid of most of the growth from the knees down. The whole time I was in the shower I kept giggling at a flashback from my teenage years.
My mother and two friends and I decided to bet on who could go the longest without shaving our legs one winter. I'm pretty sure my mother won- and now I understand why she really didn't care how long she went without shaving! Sometimes, life just happens and the hair keeps growing.
