Life On the Wee Woo Box

A lot of people are content doing the bare minimum, and just "riding backwards" all of their careers. I want more than that. I even started looking up what it would cost to start taking college classes again.

I'm awake and at work. First call of the day was a reported structure fire. False alarm. Today's mission is to get rid of these damn gnats in our station. They've been bothering us for weeks.

The cut looked healed enough for a full shave. I was right. 4 passes to get BBS. Ghost Dragon's Blood sure did the trick with the cooling. It's already 86° with plenty more time for it to get hotter. Money Butt application went better today. Tobacco Oud to finish. It doesn't get a lot better than this.

Lots of screaming, but the breakdowns in the song above remind me of Resident Evil and it's awesome.

I got a couple of new soaps in yesterday that I picked up from the mailbox on the way out to work. They'll be going on the acquisition thread when I get a spare couple of minutes. I hope you're all well. Thanks for reading, Cadre.

New to me is Talbot Cole's Pond. And Tallow + Steel Morikami, exclusive to SFWS, which I obviously didn't attend. I have ways about things.

I may have skimmed it before, but it clicked today. You put monkey butt on your face :eek:

What of it? Venessa hasn't made fun of me yet, so it can't be too bad. :ROFLMAO:

Get over to Harbor freight and get one of those tennis racket bug zappers! They are super fun for gnats and skeeters! Now for super duper fun. The salt gun for whacking flies!!

That's a dangerous thing to do in a fire station :ROFLMAO:

I just got to my mom's house. The trip was a lot more dramatic than I would've liked, but all's well that ends well in suppose. Monkey Butt pulled through in it's first trial run. Car fire. No sweat running down my face into my eyes, exactly as desired. I did have a really depressing call, but I'll sleep well knowing that I did my part to get things moving in a positive direction.

I needed something absolutely refreshing, so why not grab a......shave....mojito? I got home around 11, so I guess it wouldn't have been too bad to have a real one, but I digest. Dang that was a refreshing shave in 3 passes for a DFS. Arctic Lime kept the cool freshness going well into my nap.

It's been a long day. I'm off to curl up with the cats. I hope you're all well. Thanks for reading, Cadre.
