Chad's adventures of shaving, officiating, and life

YOWSA, get yourself a bottle of YUKON JACK best stuff kills everything..... Now we know why you are smelling tumbleweeds, LOL

Get well soon!
 
Razor: Razorock SLOC
Blade: Big Ben (1)
Soap/cream: Proraso Green
Brush: Stirling Finest Fan
Aftershave1: T.N. Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Aftershave2: Proraso Green

Well when I went into look at my soap this morning I realized it is really just a VERY thin layer of soap. Practically translucent now. So I loaded up and had a great shave. During clean up I took my thumbnail and pushed all the soap to the middle. There isn't much left. About what I scrape out of a sample when sampling a new soap. So tomorrow the Proraso will die.

I loaded my Razorock SLOC which is quitely climbing the ranks in my den with another blade I had lying around the Big Ben, and got a SUPERB shave. I don't think this razor can deliver a bad shave. All in all a great shave for the day.

Homefront:

I am feeling better now that I have been on antibiotics for over 24 hours. But my lymph nodes are still pretty enlarged in my neck. But this is the best I have felt this morning in over 2 weeks! So I have that going for me. Another day of summit meetings, and then off tomorrow and won't return to work til Tuesday.

I will be MIA for most of Thursday, Friday, and Saturday as I will be attending the referee clinic at the University of Utah and will be officiating at least 3 games a day, then video/classroom discussion. So it is going to be a LONG 3 days. But good news those of you that like my officiating stories will get them. Basically this is put on and high school send teams to compete and condition in the offseason. It is also an opportunity for senior to be showcased to prospective colleges. So the games will be competitive and hopefully that means some good stories too.

Have a good day and weekend cadre. I will be checking in randomly but not posting most likely. Will someone please add water to Dave's dish at least twice daily? It is pretty hot out.
 
Good to have you on the mend. I don't recall approving your request for those three days off, we may have a problem. I was planning on going missing Friday through Sunday ...Dave is going to get REALLY thirsty.
 
Glad to hear that you're starting to feel better Chad. Sounds like the next few days, though full will be a good time. Looking forward to the ref'ing stories that come out of it.
 
I know you've been looking fotward to this, so I'm glad you are feeling better. Sitting in the waiting room at the Drs. Now waiting to get a severed deer tick extracted from my back..
 
Nice Shave Chad, and no worries on the water, I am going trout fishing up north , LOL

Boy that sounds fun! Thankfully the ticks haven't been real bad here yet. But I did see a few mosquitoes last night.

Thanks Dave. Up North? So what it will only be 100 instead 110? Hard to imagine North in a state like Arizona LOL. Hope you catch some fish though! I have been itching to get fishing!
 
Glad you are feeling better. Congrats on killing the Proraso. We will make a 3017er out of you yet.

Nothing crazy up early and just sitting around waiting for camp to start. Should be fun long day! Enjoy Thursday Cadre.
 
Chad doing a 3017 until the Proraso Green is gone! Who would have thought? Enjoy your clinic!
 
All caught up, Chad. Goodness, so much going on with you and yours! Glad that you are on the mend. Looking forward to ref stories.
 
Chad - I am still waiting for the day I turn on the TV and while I am watching an NBA game, I will see you reffing and I can be like "I know that guy." ? Glad you are feeling better!

That is a cursed place! It spells disaster for my beloved LSU Tigers. Well, at least it did during the NIT!

I don't the outcome of that game was pretty spectacular. And it was the perfect opportunity for you to come visit. I even offered a beer!
