Shining Shiny Shoes
I really enjoy shining shoes. I find the whole process to be extremely cathartic, though I’m not entirely sure why. It’s just a relaxing experience that when I finish, I can see the results immediately. I also think it’s a bit of a dying art, but that’s a slightly different topic. Of the many things that I want to experience before I die, two that rank extremely high are stopping at a shoe shine stand in an airport and getting a hot towel shave from a barber. Women have manicures, pedicures, facials and on and on. Men have hot towel shaves and shoe shines. When I get married, I plan on having both the morning of the wedding. I suppose the first step toward accomplishing that is to get a steady girlfriend. Until then, I’ll shave myself and shine my own shoes.

Amen brother. A hot towel shave would be fricken sweet. Also, on my list of things to do...learn to swear right, cripes!

Man, a clean shave feels pretty good after you've let yourself go a couple of days... It's kinda like having a Cold One after working really hard all day
