favorite things 03

i like to form deep and long lasting relationships with the objects in my life. maybe that's why it is hard for me to get rid of things. especially when they still work. i've had this razor for over twenty years and it still works as well as it did then. it's traveled all over the country, been dropped over and over and has shaved my face (and my wife's legs) when i wasn't trying to grow a beard thousands of times. now it has this really great patina, and it's only just getting broken in. i love it too, because it requires no maintenance and no electricity. just a basin of hot water, my shave cream and a mirror and i clean up good. and that's why it is one of my wife's favorite things too!
