2006-12-12 - 5:47 p.m. - everything you wanted to know about shaving (but were afraid to ask)...
This one�s going to be another quickie. The opinions on whether I should shave or not were more or less down the middle. A handful of people liked the idea, while a few others preferred facial hair and still a few more that had an opinion that went both ways. Personally speaking, I�ve grown quite attached to my facial hair and haven�t fully shaved in ages. In the interest of sparking change in my life, however I went ahead and shave my face clean. I've posted a pic below: Honestly I don�t really like the result, for some reason I look too much like my Dad without my goatee so I�m just going to grow it back and probably will never shave it again unless I wind up having a girlfriend who prefers it shaved or something. Of course, at the rate I�m going with the opposite sex that probably means I�ll never shave again. I don�t think it made a huge enough difference that people would outwardly notice the change though. I wasn�t gifted with all that much facial or body hair to begin with. I suppose that�s a mixed blessing, I mean I�ll never have to shave or wax my back for any reason. Speaking of shaving and making changes to my life, I�ve actually contemplated shaving my head, like really short, almost bald. I may try it in the summer, I�m not sure. This might be a little too much information, so if you aren�t into TMI, I advise you to skip the rest of this paragraph. For those of you still reading, I did go ahead and shave an area of my body that I haven�t shaved in a really long time. Yup, you guessed it, I shaved off my pubes. I wouldn't say the pubes have been around as long as the goatee, but it's been pretty damn long. I guess that since nobody went down to visit there anymore, I pretty much just let it go into jungle mode. Although it wasn�t quite 70�s porn star, it was slowly but surely getting pretty primeval down there. I figured that even though I�m not actively seeking sexual encounters, I figure these things happen, even to unsmooth schmoes like me. It�s not totally bald mind you but it�s short enough that there aren�t a whole bunch of pubes in your face if you know what I mean. I had a few more things I wanted to discuss, but it�s after-hours in the office and I don�t want to be staying here any longer than I need to. This entry is mostly just to satisfy Acorn�s curiosity ;) (and whomever else wanted to know).
