My current showering setup is different than any other I've had in my entire life in that it has absolutely nowhere for me to prop up a leg in order to shave. Even when I've had a separate shower and tub in the past, it had a seat in the corner, perfect for resting a foot on. So, I'm forced to attempt to prop my foot against the wall of the shower to shave my legs. This can sometimes be tricky as a wet foot against a wet wall is not the best combination for friction.
Anyway, last night as I was showering and shaving, I lifted up a foot to press against the shower wall and the side of my toe banged really hard against something metal (it doesn't help that I can't see sh*t without my glasses or contacts, which I don't generally wear while showering). It hurt, but I thought it was just a bump. Well, as I got out of the shower, I noticed there was blood in the water going down the drain, and then on my towel, so I figured I must have nicked something as I was shaving. So, I put on my glasses and started to look myself over to see where I was bleeding. Turns out, it was from a nice gape in the side of my toe from hitting the metal.
Sometimes, I wonder why I even bother with shaving. But, then I think about the hairiness that would ensue from not, and I figure I'll just have to live with the resulting injuries.
