Ok, now I've shaved in almost all possible situations. While being a bit tipsy. While being a bit too drunk to shave normally. And now, while being half-asleep due to exhaustion. Normally, I'd have skipped all of those shaves, but the power of Stag compels me to shave this month.
Had a bit of a scare today: felt like I took a bit too much hairs away from my moustache at first. But then, I realized that you can't only shave but also trim with the shavette if you're careful enough. Then I realized that it was the side which is already fuller anyway, so I set took out my beard trimmer, did a bit of details and set it aside for tomorrow. Once I had a night of restful sleep, I'll need to trim the ol' upper lip curtain shorter and nicer. Unfortunately, due to my high biotin intake for skin issues all hair grows like crazy too and it has gotten too long too quickly.
Tadé boar progress pictures:
Dry brush in holder; dry bristles close up and finally the wet bristles after use. Well, let's just say that I'm quite pleased. The mighty Midnight Stag odour has beaten all pig stank since a good amount of time, but it also has made the bristles soft and supple for everyday use. Cool brush, it's finally in the hourglass shape that intrigued me at first.
Sidetracked
Normally it's a bad idea to do this while tired, but eff it, it's my goddamn challenge and I have zo be a good example I guess. So today, we have a cover song that I quite like: Celtic Frost - Mexican Radio
Ok, CF were already featured by me earlier this month. What can I say? I'm a simple dude and I like their music. This song here is way less serious than Circle of the Tyrants though. Something that can make me headbang to "I'm on a Mexican Radio!" is just great musicianship. Also, it features both of Tom G. Warriors' signature vocals: "Hey!" and "Ugh!". There's a forbidden drinking game were you drink a shot every time you hear an ugh in a Celtic Frost song. Forbidden, because you'd die from alcohol poisoning. Don't believe me? hear for yourself!
This SOTD is part of the challenge
