What do you get when you have a razor sharp knife?

16th September, 2022

An arm with hairless patches. From the scientific tests, of course.

Well, good day. Started it early at around 5.30 AM, dropped my washerman close to his house after lending him a thousand bucks, and thought to myself,
Will I be a happier man if I do an act of kindness everyday?

Got to work by 7.45 AM. Our department has a shortage of interns, as of now, so I started with finishing what interns usually do.
Morning rounds of all patients, and put down notes.

Having finished everyday chores, I helped my room-mate/ex-girlfriend/love-of-my-life (long fucking story, pin it for laters) with an ambitious arts and craft project she had undertaken before she realized that she's too tired to finish it,

Then, I went swimming. Realized that I am somewhat terrified of the deep end - I find it easier to swim three laps of the pool breadth-wise, than one lap length-wise.
Also, 200m remains my best. Haven't been able to come close to it since.
All that smoking isn't helping, you know.

On that note, sputum has been kinda weird recently, dense and knotty. I guess squamous metaplasia has set in.

Anyway, after that, I sat down to sharpen one of my knives. The oldest one I have, a Gerber Multitool. And damn, that Worksharp Whetstone I gifted myself for birthday, works wonders. And that Sharpal strop compound too. Absolutely fantastic.
I put a razor-sharp edge on it, and boy am I excited, it's my first hair shaving finish.

Mirtaz in the system by 10.05, I'll now have a quick smoke and go right to bed.
