Decent shave with Mood Indigo. Sometimes this scent smells a little too synthetic, but today I had no such problem. It smelled great.

SOTD 05.02.2024
Mammoth Monday head shave. 2 passes: I did the most part with the Gamechanger, then some cleanup with a disposable. 3 tiny blood spots due to not shaving for a few days and longer stubble on my dome, but overall a very comfortable shave nonetheless.
I currently have a lot to handle and on top I prepare a little celebration for my 30th birthday on the 1st of March. Originally, I wanted to throw a small party on the following Saturday, but since all my friends are parents who work, we’ll see how I can organise everything…
Actually, I never imagined it but turning 30 is hard for me. Sure, I know life doesn’t end there, I can still do lots of stuff, most of my friends and current classmates are older and since I’m a bald dude with facial hair I already look thirty for a few years… But seeing how I haven’t really achieved anything like my parents or friends did in their 30s (no family/kids, no marriage, no house) kinda pulls me down. Birthday blues is real and I hate it…
(I normally would have written about this in the Free Talk Thread, but since we didn’t have one and I forgot to make one too I’ll just tack it onto my SOTD. Feel free to laugh about my first world problems.)

Oh, to be 30 again. Actually, screw that. I’m much happier now that I’m pushing 40!
I need to re-add the Free Talk Friday to the auto-bot now that it seems to be stable.

I guess it’s a matter of perspective and being content with the life you live. I have a few good things going on, but I still miss some important parts.
That would be great, thanks. I really enjoy this thread even if there are only a few contributions…
