Shave #2 that I'll post today. The Kryptonite shave from earlier was done last night for work reasons, but I counted it for today because of the Shave Against Suicide on reddit.

Anyway, TUB KILL!

I've been chipping away at this tub for 6 days in order to get it out of the way for incoming Oro Valley. This is the 20th tub of soap that I've managed to kill, granted a lot of them I got used, etc, but I'm quite proud. This brings my total tub count to 32, and tomorrow it'll increase back to 33 when Oro Valley is delivered. I had over 50 at one point and made a goal to get down to 40, and then kept going.

*disclaimer - my tub count only includes what I consider "real tubs". Things like tubes of Proraso and Speik, my puck of Williams, and other novelty lather products aren't counted for my own sanity.

Nice shave. The WS-23 in the soap was barely detectable which I appreciate.
