I’m bringing a couple extra razors with me, just in case.
In approximately 48 minutes, I hit the road with 15-ish college girls for our start-of-the-semester retreat. Coming along to help me “chaperone” this trip are Katie, our next bride-to-be; French Fry, my friend from childhood and, of course, Cousin Cate.
In other words, I hope you and your family are not staying in the hotel rooms bordering ours.
As I was packing my bag earlier, I received the following picture text from one of my college girls, Stephanie (who we actually call Pookie, but that’s another story for a different time):
“I’m so excited for the retreat this weekend that I’m shaving my legs for the first time in three months! Here’s a photo of the before shot.”
And yes, there was a photo. And yes, you can thank me later for not sharing it with you.
I sent a reply that could, in some countries, be considered a threat:
“I hope you know this will be appearing on the blog.”
To which she replied:
“Oh, I’m cool with that. I totally dulled my razor on only one leg!”
Naturally, I replied with the only appropriate response:
“I feel like I’m supposed to congratulate you on that… accomplishment?”
Her reply?
“Of course! I just fought a huge battle and won! I can’t wait to show you all tonight!”
haha that’s hilarious. But seriously, who shaves when it’s cold and you can just wear pants? . . . my poor husband haha
I’m there! I can remember several occasions where I’ve had to crack open a package and get out a new razor halfway through… Or maybe less than halfway!
That’s totally the advantage of being single! Of course, I have to shave more often than that if I’m going to get my exercise in at the pool.
this sums up college girl life to a t!
Hey, it’s Winter and I can’t reach any body part past my (very) pregnant belly, so I can totally relate. Fun post; I’m glad I found your blog! Have a great weekend.
Andrea
ps: It’s not too late to post the pictures
I have no response to that …
There is no reason at all to be making fun of this girl. It’s perfectly logical. Why shave when you will always be wearing pants for months on end??
Pookie, you are too cool for words.
so, I really hope you know just how many of the 15 of us this was true of….Pookie and I were pretty much competing for Whoa-man of the year….my legs were winning!!!!
