Mike,

No one is on their game 100% of the time. We all have slumps in many aspects of our lives now and then. Relax and don't think so much about it. Your "mojo" will return in time... Abstaining from shaving while you are camping may be just the break you need.

Hi Mike:  No worries my brother... even Michael Jordan has missed shots and he is considered the greatest of all time.  In the mean time... I just magically sent you some of my shaving mojo so it is all good! ;)

I agree with this.  About 3 weeks ago I posted about having one of the worst shaves ever.  Had 4 or 5 nicks on my head from the DE and my neck looked like I shaved it with a rusty spoon.  I took a break for about 4 days and let my wounds heal.  Came back and still had a bad shave, but not nearly as bad.  I think I was just overthinking it and trying too hard for the perfect shave.

Mike, it just may be time for a change-up in your routine. Try a different razor, or cartridge. I am always rotating with different razor's, and I think it will help if you do too. Try your good old M5, will ya!  ;)

I hate to break it to you Mike, but you need to give up sex until you find your mojo again.  It's just like baseball.

Oh no....   I guess I'll just have to watch innocent movies and read sex into them instead.   ;)

Life has three aspects: Paradox, Humor, and Change.

Paradox: Life is a mystery; don't waste time figuring it out.
Humor: Keep a sense of humor, especially about yourself. It is a strength beyond all measure
Change: Know that nothing stays the same.

We've all been there Mike, it's shitty. Nothing worse than nicking yourself, it really gets me down lol but then I man up. Let it heal and go again, take your time and take care

Mine went AWOL for a few days, too, until I realized I was trying to get through it too quickly. It was just a matter of backing off and letting myself take as much time as necessary to get the job done.

<sheepish grin>

Apparently the Mojo has converged here in Central Florida as the last two days I have had the bestest, smoothest shaves since I started. Shinier and Flawless(er) than a freshly waxed floor.

If it's here for the winter, you're in for a long spell ...

If it's moved south for the winter, it could have at least waited for the first cold blast here in the Northeast!!!
