Day 16 of SEptember 2015



Another good shave, couple of weepers, but this was day eight on the blade. Will change and enjoy it all again tomorrow!

Have a triumphant Thursday!
​

 

I am toying with flying out there...I am intrigued by a Shave Convention.

 

Mine is a 1912. Same great shave that I get from all of my 1912's. Same technique and you will be rewarded.

 

Well get yourself on the flight and be out here Saturday morning!
I'll pick you up at the airport. Tell Mrs. Samurai that I promise to get you on the plane Sunday.

Obviously, this is my first time at this event so I don't know what to expect, but I saw about a dozen TSDenizens show interest and Matt has quoted about 35 RSVPs. Check out the Thread and the link to the website.

and my offer for the airport shuttle is good for three TSDenizens!
(That's all I can fit in my car!)

 

That is most kind! I will decide by tomorrow afternoon....big maybe at this point. The venue, Fado, should be pretty nice. It's a limited chain, there is one in lower downtown Denver that I have visited. If you like fine beer and whiskey, it's a definite winner. I shall investigate...

 

I've lived in Seattle since '78 and have never been there. But the chameleon that I am is comfortable most anywhere so I try to make the best of the moment and the situation...beer, whiskey or pulpit!

 

I've spent a lot of time around all three... It might have been a cause and effect situation.

 

Live long enough and,
no doubt, brother, no doubt.

 

one of the girls that works 1st shift here had court so I've been at work for 16 hours a day and this is my 2nd day of that. My last day off was Monday the 7th and my next one is Sunday the 20th. I've been taking my Schick Gtype to work with my arko and shaving here for the last 2 days. I'm not trying too hard so I'm doing a quick 2 pass XTG and ATG getting almost BBS on my face and a very near it on my neck with next to no irritation. No preshave prep and barely a slap of nivia post shave balm afterwards. Arko and my Semogue Boar. In the morning I'll be changing clothes and driving into the city to take my fiancée's youngest to his heart doctor. He may have the surgury to fix the hole in his heart earlier then Feb when we were expecting it.

 

Wow, you have a lot on your plate. Best wishes and prayers for the child.

 

In that order for me

 

it doesn't feel like that much yet. I'm coping pretty well. I've noticed some excessive tiredness last few days but I'm hanging I there. I took some me time day before yesterday and read the Martian since the movie is coming out. It's a good book I wish it had been a longer read.

 

That one is on my list to read.

 

I picked up a paperback on sale at the grocery store for $6 completely worth it.
