I ran out of GTB aftershave. The first AS I've emptied! I can't be without GTB so I went on their website to order more. First, I found they now make a balm. So I ordered that to try because all their AS have menthol in them which means I can only apply to my neck, chest, arms, cat, whatever. Not on my cheeks. I'm curious how the scent strength of the balm will be. But as anyone who has passed economics knows, you're wasting money if you don't buy enough to get free shipping. I took a flier on this one because I tend not to like lavender things because they slap you in the face with that purple smell. I was hoping maybe the wood notes would tone it down and they did. This is a nice soap that hopefully I won't forget I own and include in normal rotation.

I honestly reached this portion of the story and was worried what the next word was going to be. You certainly are a curiosity. And a wonder to behold. Keep being Bougie.

Whooeee what a day. Tons and tons of meetings. I have no idea why, but I'm craving sparkling wine when I get home. We don't have any half bottles, so I need to just be disappointed or commit to drinking a whole bottle. Life is full of hard choices.

The Bougie life didn't choose you........you latched on to the Bougie life....and embraced it with your leg up around its back, clutching it for dear life and refusing to let go.

Little catch-up needed there. Not much big news. My wife continues to recover from her surgery which is going well, but mentally trying at this point with wanting to just get over things. It''s crazy the holidays are right around the corner. I still feel like we're not done planning for the year.

And just like that....Bougie steps out of the Delorean and gazes longingly at his Grey's Sports Almanac.

Glad to hear that your wife is recovering well. Postop progress can be tedious, and piecemeal. Best wishes for her. 👍
