I accidentally shaved my legs today. It's not as funny as it sounds.

Of course you want to know "but how could you have accidentally shaved your legs?" (And you're probably thinking odd thoughts along the lines of Freudian slips and what constitutes a feminist principle and hey, wtf gender is Jack, anyway?)

It's not all that exciting -- though it was surprising, to me at least. I got over-enthusiastic exfoliating with my pumice stone, never thinking that a freaking rock could function as a razor. Well, you learn something new every day, and all that.

Fortunately the hair's not all gone; just where it was sparsest to begin with, mostly around my ankles. And I think I have razor burn. Or pumice burn, I guess.

Hm. I think this may be my most embarassing, personal, TMI post ever (that wasn't friends-locked). But hey, isn't that what a public diary is meant to be for?

That's what women did in the War, because razors were rationed (but pumice, I guess, is pretty easy to pick up).

Hunh. I did not know that.

Probably it wasn't so much that people were tripping over pumice in the streets, as that every last scrap of metal was 'needed' for the 'War Effort'.

Hey, I may have to try that (on purpose)!

Better you than me!
