Had to do the dome - I had let it grow for almost a whole week, people were mistaking me for Rapunzel
Raputa the Buta musta got lost.
I’m old enough to get the reference!!
Thanks for that, Wooba Gooba.

Good morning - another straight shave. Cuban highball is one of 4 soaps that I have multiple pucks - I just love this scent - the booziness of the drink, a splash of citrus, and a very good tobacco note. Just wonderful way to start Sunday.
It’s pouring rain right now - so looks like Aidan and I will be headed to Urban Air.
Have to do a lot of paperwork today to prep for Aidan’s interview - I have him enrolled in a work study program. Hopefully he’lll get to work at the vets or with a computer.
Have a great Sunday!

Brother, that’s awesome. Good luck Aiden!
Go Aidan!
They should call that soap “Rosie the Riveters Night Out”.
I didn’t even think of the resemblance until you mentioned it! She classed it up to go out!
She had a grip that would….well let’s just say she’s a strong gal.

So not as hot as some - but still up there - 33 Celsius with 65% humidity - so it is either community pool or water balloon time today. So Aidan is stoked.
Shave - I had to go with the mood - this soap is exactly what it seems - imagine you are sweating away - poolside - sipping on your fruity adult beverage (orange & pineapple) and then you decide to just jump right into the deep end - the cold water engulfing you - that is this soap and AS experience. This was my first soap/AS with synthetic cooling agent -so I didn‘t realize it would sneak up on you - subtle at first -then without warning full blast. When I first put it on, I felt a little cooling -but not what I thought I should so I tripled up on the applications. It was so cold my teeth hurt So I’ve learned from experience (one of the few times).
Anyway, Aidan and I first have to stop by the Special Needs Placement Center - get the job applications finished and fingers crossed, we’ll be all prepped for the summer and the school year.
Have a great day everyone!
