The other day, Brian and I were having a conversation revolving around simple economics.

“Why would anyone pay $2 for a razor blade?”

The Gillette Mach 3 is probably one of the most expensive razors on the market. And also probably one of the best. I haven’t had to buy Mach 3 replacement blades for a long time … mostly because they were so expensive, but also because I went through my goatee-period and figured cheap blades were better than nothing. I’ve basically been putting cheap metal to my face for the last several months. Well … no more, I tell you. I broke down and purchased four Mach 3 replacement blades the other day and have to say this, my friends … they are well worth the money. I shaved just a few moments ago and it was completely effortless … like a hot knife through butter. Not butter … but buttah . People will pay the money if the product is well worth it. And I gotta tell you … worth every penny. And if there any hot, single ladies out there questioning this, feel free to come over and I’ll let you do the rub-the-face test.

In other news, I had one of the most glorious Saturdays I’ve had in a long time. I’ve been running on minimal sleep for the past few weeks so when my photo shoot canceled today, I took advantage of the situation by sleeping until 2. It was absolutely amazing. I also spent the time catching up on things, grabbing a sandwich with Brian, Flor, and Jeremy, and doing a little shopping. Good times …

I almost forgot … I had an awesome photo shoot on Friday with Stevie, one of my most favorite people. She’s always so much fun to hang out with … and despite the unpredictable lighting scenario, we managed to sneak away with some really nice shots. Also got a chance to photograph her friend, Medea, before she leaves for Hawaii … so that was nice. Here’s a few samples …

And on that note, I’m going to get to bed. It’s after 3:00 a.m. and have an engagement session later this morning in Ramona. Then later this afternoon, I get to hang out with two more of my favorite people: Heather and Liz. Looking forward to it … should be a pretty awesome day! Pictures later …
