I Am Growing A Beard

[maxcelcat]

I am growing a winter beard. Ok, so, it's a little late in the winter this year. It'll be two weeks old on Saturday, so it's a week or more away from being a real beard. I have had two previous winter beards, one in 2003 and one in 2004.

evildoom_bunny argued strenuously that I shouldn't grow one, for various reasons. Then, inexplicably, a few weeks back she declared it might make me look "cuddly." Reason enough to stop shaving :-)

Shaving sucks. You take a sharp blade to the most delicate part of your body and try really hard not to slash yourself. And it messes with my delicate skin. Que accusations of being a metrosexual.

Will post pictures when it's very beardy. In the mean time, here's a rough idea of what it'll look like when fully grown.
