So, not much to go on again this weekend. If I didn’t mention it, Donette has been out of town the last few weekends. Left to my own devices, it’s a known fact I will typically just sit on the couch and watch TV, eating microwave popcorn and Ritz crackers. (I was starting to feel a little faint by Sunday afternoon, so I mixed some peanut butter into the diet. Paired wonderfully with the crackers.) Both of my friends were otherwise occupied this weekend, so it made my sloth-like ways even more inevitable. I did have big plans of going bike riding, but it actually rained all weekend and threw that off too. I watched no small amount of Gunsmoke, several random sporting events, and even ventured out once to wander the aisles at Costco. The Costco trip netted two items I feel inclined to mention, mostly from lack of anything else to type about. First was a meyer lemon tree. I’ve been wanting a lemon tree since we moved into the house. I was supposed to get one when the backyard got landscaped, but for reasons unknown to me… I didn’t. (Never really figured that one out. Whatever, it was $20 at Costco.) I see them for sale occasionally, and then after I wait around trying to decide if it’s a good time to plant, if it’s the variety I want, blah blah, they’re all gone. So, when I saw a few of these out front of Costco, I threw one in the cart. No, it’s not really the variety I wanted, but I’m tired of waiting. Second was a fancy new electric razor. This was another item I’ve probably been over-thinking. I’m a Braun man myself, but I’ve long been intrigued by the Norelco design. A few weeks ago when I was wandering Costco, I couldn’t help but notice they had quite nice models of both brands available, for exactly the same price. This set me on a bout of research between the two: Which was better for shaving your head? Which was better overall? Which had better battery life? How expensive were replacement parts? Well, it was pretty much a dead draw, depending on which review you were reading. I must say I was leaning toward the Norelco, mostly because I’m a bit peeved that my Braun wore out. The head pops off it while you’re shaving, which is quite annoying. Not like once a week, like five times every time you use it. OK, it’s probably eight years old… But still. Anyway, when I headed in to make my final decision and saw the Norelco was $30 off, my final decision was made. Initial results are very positive, I’m happy with the purchase. Is it “As close as a blade?” Heck no, I can’t believe anybody ever claimed that. But, close enough to get me through the work day. It IS a noticeably closer shave than my old Braun though. I don’t believe anybody could tell the difference between it and a blade unless they ran their fingers over my face. And honestly, that very rarely happens during my day-to-day encounters. Thus concludes my product review, wasn’t that exciting and informative?
