June 20, 2024 – LG24 Day 20 - Sunny Days
PIF Acknowledgement, Daily Theme & Relevant Post/Frag: As I planned my LG calendar, I became desperate for a summer-themed soap and an A A Shaving soap (for sponsorship points). u/OnionMiasma came to my rescue by PIFing a generously sized smush of Wapiti. u/tsrblke deserves an assist by collecting the smush from Onion and forwarding said smush to me.
In my Spring Day SOTD writeup, I admitted that last games, seasonal scents were my kryptonite because my brain doesn't associate scents with the seasons. I would have never in a million years associated Wapiti with summer, but it is on theme today because Onion says so.
Wapiti has aquatic and woody notes. Today's post is an aquatic with woody notes, and today's frag (a Bvlgari Aqva Atlantiqve dupe) is a woody aquatic.
Daily Challenge: After yesterday's SOTD, Mrs Worried and I traveled with our son to Bali, Indonesia, where Worried Jr will be participating in a youth soccer (U14) tournament. While I would love to head for the woods in Midwestern USA and do a shave worthy of u/Old_Hiker, I'll have to settle for a poolside shave at the villa we are sharing with 6 other soccer parents. Our soccer parent friends already think I'm a bit strange, so trying to explain to them that I'm participating in the Premier Internet Wet Shaving Competition would be a futile effort, so instead I did something that I excel at - I ignored everyone and went about the business at hand. First, I prepared everything I'd need for the shave (including bowl-building my lather)and walked to the poolside location I chose for today's shave and started pass number one of my shave. The first pass was uneventful, so I dove into pass number two. Amazingly (or maybe not) no one had even noticed me. After a quick cleanup, I snapped one last photo and went about enjoying my first day in Bali.
SOTD Pic Note: My SOTD picture was staged prior to flying out the Philippines. I brought with me samples/smushes/decants of all needed software for LG use during this trip. Here's a pic for you viewing pleasure.
Bali Fun Fact: I have to use a VPN to access Reddit here in Bali. For whatever reason, the Indo government is having internet providers block Reddit. I guess those bloody facial pics at WE scared the government to take action!
