was able to shave with my pocketknife today, not perfectly by any means, but noticeably. I think it had more to do with a few days' growth of beard than with any breakthrough in sharpening, but I'm encouraged nonetheless.
my teeth and gums are bothering me. not sure if I'm eating things that would irritate them anyway, or if the plaque buildup is getting bad, or if I'm suffering from a nutritional deficiency.
