Great call on that Yaqi synthetic! I have really enjoyed using it.

Glad you’re enjoying it! I think the Yaqi Rainbow might be slowly taking over as my favorite at the moment.
It won’t be a buy for me, I’m using a sample at the moment. It’s nice though, a soft, sweet tiramisu-esque finish.

Shave #49 (400 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:
Gear: Gillette Pre-war Tech, Feather blade, Yaqi SF brush, CBL Money tonsorial soap, generic witch hazel, Thayer’s Medicated, Pinaud Citrus Musk, and Paco Rabanne 1 Million to finish!
“Chris, our car got broken into last night”. Not exactly the wake up you want at 7:00, when the family is about to head out for the day. But here we are. I guess our 3-ish year streak without incident had to end at some point. Thankfully, it wasn’t actually a break in, rather someone apparently felt fun was heading down the street and shooting out a few car windows with a pellet/BB gun. Nothing stolen that we or the neighbors could tell. Sets our vacay fund back a bit, but blessed to be able to have the means to take care of it at this time though, normally that’d have put us in a pinch.
After cleaning up what I could, it was too late to catch a few more Zs, so I did my morning routine.
Back to work today through Friday. Just 4 days...I’ve got this!
Have a great Tuesday all!

That stinks Chris. Sorry you gotta deal with it right before your trip and all. Hoodlums.....
Aggravating. When I was a teenager, some friends liked to shoot out streetlights, but never car windows. Boys and their toys.

Thanks guys. Bound to happen when living in an area that’s still working on being “up n coming”. Hopefully it doesn’t repeat for a while (or ever).

Sorry about that Chris. I would be that person that waited up with a paintball gun incase they were to come back.

In CA it would be my luck that when things went to court, I’d be the one in trouble if I did that lol

Moving to Texas is the best solution.
Cause then you're so dang hot you don't care what else happens to you?

Are you talking about Sam Elliott, or making a statement about the heat in Texas? Sorry Dave I need to know how to respond.
Best. Response. Ever.

Thanks Tim! Just glad it wasn’t worse and that we can take care of it promptly!

Bummer about the window Chris. If you have full coverage insurance you can submit a vandalism claim. It’s a comprehensive claim, not collision, and won’t raise your rates. At least that’s how it works in NJ and PA.

Shave #50 (400 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:
Gear: Gillette Pre-war Tech, Feather blade, RR Big Bruce synth brush, CBL SIR Fougere tonsorial soap, generic witch hazel, Thayer’s Medicated, and Avon Tai Winds to finish!
Beep beep...school bus duties!
Just a simple, straightforward shave this morning after getting back. At least, that’s what it felt like, though nothings really changed except the scents. Good, solid, dependable, refreshing shave.
Date morning in a bit. Work later.
Have a great Wednesday all!
