Thread: What have I gotten myself into?!!

Well... Yea... Ok... There is that I suppose. I was told that several years back about our boats. We had three of them and she told me that if I brought another one home that I had better be able to sleep on it.

I know this isn't a safe house!

I hope I don't get too out of control with this. Got that way with firearms and reloading and am still that way with cigars and electronics!

Went there with fly rods, rod-building tools (built my own), fly tying, now razors, shaving-related supplies, razor restoration tools and supplies, etc. The price point is just achievable. The only place I didn't go there was with shotguns, since you get to price points where you can a) get a nice new gun, or b) re-roof the house. I did get a rifled barrel for it, though, for deer season. And, eventually, a new roof on the house.

JG… I won the war on cigars. She happens to like the “occasional” cigar too. I had to buy her a humidor of her own when her cigars took up almost a third of mine. She stole my best line and told me, very innocently, that her cigars kept having babies.
I’m working on her about the straights now. She is shaving with her own DE, but insists that the only way a straight is getting near her is if I’m doing it. Mind you now, she is 6’1”, and that’s a lot of real estate! Consider how long it takes to shave your face. However, the adventure is fun and the rewards of getting her hooked could be beneficial in several ways. I keep trying to get her on the site over in the women’s corner, but I think that my arguments for that are probably spurious at best.

Rough… I don’t really go much for the guns anymore, though I can understand it. I kinda got my fill of the weapons in the Navy. My youngest daughter, however, would love to raid your fly rods. She’s almost as mush fish as she loves to fish and she’s gotten on this kick of trying to fly fish.

Add to all of this, the fact that I’m an obsessive diver… can’t begin to imagine why we’re always broke.

I'm starting a local chapter of RA (razors anonymous). It's one day at a time but I have to get past denial and must become rigorously honest, including with my spouse. One month into this I have 15 straights already so don''t know how that will go. The postman wonders what the heck is going on but at least the boys in brown aren't lugging heavy packages up to the porch.

Not until you discover bulk purchasing, anyway.

I just found a deal at RazorsRUs for a gross of SR8s but they are all pakistani. Seriously, I have 4-5 hobbies and am highly addiction prone. I go crazy on whatever I get into and this seems to be another. I love it! Don't know if, at a younger age, I could have found the time for SR8 shaving but I have it now so look forward to more. I plan on retiring in a couple more years and figure I can REALLY get into it then (but then...what is it I'm doing now?). Anyway, regarding RA..."keep coming back."

Hi Maple.... My name is Toymkrreed and I'm addicted to stropping.
