Hah! Not quite. I’ve never actually played D&D 🤔

I ordered two games from the same title series: Dice Throne Season 2 and Dice Throne Adventures. DTs2 is supposed to be a fun versus game that’s a cross between a Yahtzee style dice roller and MTG. DTA is an expansion that allows you to take the characters from DTs2 and do dungeon crawling cooperatively.

That sounds fun!!
 
Shave #62 (456 Open Blade Shaves) of 2021:

Gear: RR GC .68 SB, Astra SP blade, RR Big Bruce synth brush, CBL Money tonsorial soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, LNHC Barber Shoppe post shave elixir, and Carolina Herrera Bad Boy to finish!

Wooo man, I am sore this morning!

Great shave. Switched it up a bit and brought in the GC .68 that I haven’t used in a while. Excellent investment! Reformed my Money tonsorial puck again, eliminating the donut hole for the third time; it had been starting to crack and flake in some spots, which I hate! So I made it easy on myself for tomorrow 😂

Spent a good 7 hours of yesterday’s shift bending, lifting, reaching, pushing, hauling, walking, going up n down steps, and all that jazz to clear our modern worship space for Sunday’s first in-person service in there. The last two months we had been using it as a holding space to reorganize and clear out some storage rooms. Today and tomorrow we’ll finish cleaning up the space and getting it tip top for service.

Have a great Wednesday all!

Ouch! Makes my back and hip hurt just reading that. 😩

Remember, Bengay is your friend! Added bonus, you instantly get "old man" smell! 😉😂

hope you feel better, brother!
 
Whew, I feel your pain my friend. During the initial covid shut down, my church took the opportunity to upgrade the sanctuary. Since I was laid off at the time and desperately needed something to do, I did a fair amount of grunt work, mostly removing carpet in small enough pieces to fit into the dumpster. You really use muscles that don't see a lot of action doing stuff like that.

Shave #63 (456 Open Blade Shaves) of 2021:

Gear: RR GC .68 SB, Astra SP blade, Yaqi Sagrada Familia synth brush, CBL Money tonsorial soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Old Spice AS, and Stirling Glastonbury EDT to finish!

Still feeling it a bit this morning. Yesterday was a bit easier though. We’re just about ready.

Great shave this morning. Only one minor cut when I was whipping the razor around a bit too freely. Old Spice/Glastonbury is a great combo!

One mentoree meeting this evening. It’s my Friday though and I have a 3 day weekend! Let’s get it done!

Have a great Thursday all!
 
Shave #64 (456 Open Blade Shaves) of 2021:

Gear: Schick M Adjustable injector, Schick Twin blade, Sorrentino TSC 1st Anniversary badger brush, CBL Hombres MB soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Speick AS, and Guerlain Vetiver to finish!

Friday dad duties! Still, at least I got to sleep in a couple hours extra from a normal work day.

Funny thing happened last night that interrupted sleep a good bit...I was adjusting my sleep position, 3/4 asleep, when BAP! Smacked lightly in the face. The missus sleepily says “OMG I’m so sorry...did I just hit your face?” And I was like “YEA?! What the heck?” And she started busting up saying “I was dreaming that I was playing basketball and I blocked someone’s shot...I guess I thought your face was the ball.” We got a good chuckle out of it for about 10 minutes before falling back asleep. Still suspect though. It’s never happened before...was she telling the truth? Maybe she just felt like smacking me around a bit. 😂🤔🤪

Great shave and clean up after a few hours of yard work. Nice green theme as follow up to the chores. The Hombres scent is really growing in me! Back to the M ‘Jectah after yesterday’s hull plating damage to be on the safe side.

One meeting later at a coffee shop. Gotta get some writing done. Otherwise I’ll sneak in some game time and the boys and I will spend some time learning the new table top game we got in a few days ago!

Have a great Friday all!
 
Wives.. They always be like...

Shave #65 (457 Open Blade Shaves) of 2021:

Gear: Feather AC SS folder, Feather Pro blade, Schick M Adjustable injector, Schick Twin blade, Graydog Art Deco brush, AOS Olibanum & Pepper cream, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Lucky Tiger AS, and Penhaligon’s Sartorial clone oil to finish!

Great sleep in this morning. No plans today besides some simple chores and some DT play!

Absolutely fun and fantastic late morning shave! Decided to bring out the Feather SS for a couple passes. Went perfectly! Decided to whip up a bit of my AOS Olibanum & Pepper cream sample from Paul...I am totally in love with this scent, so heavenly, and the performance of AOS creams is top notch as far as creams go IMO.

Should be a great Saturday.

Hope y’all have a great one too!
