Progress Report

Bearding it up.

It's going to go very soon. Way too annoying. It's like having a small animal glued to your face.

Beards are awesome, I finally convinced Jen that a beard is ok, so now I've got a full-face beard. And it's wonderful. My face is warm, I have something to stroke while thinking, and I look even more like a real adult male!

I don't know how you can dislike it... God gave you the ability to grow a beard, you should use it!

Pedro said...

Ummmm...Do I detect a bit of 'manscaping' on that facial arrangement sir?

even more like a real adult male Gold!

E has always been pro-beard, and just pro-rustic in general. I'm more of a clean cut sort of a guy.

I kind of like it, but it's pretty annoying. It's mostly the moosty that kills me. The hair grows straight out, like a hair-shelf over my upper lip. And up into my nose and into my brain where it slowly kills me.

Since this beards' beginning I haven't touched the chin, but the moosty has been trimmed about seventeen times. That's what I'm working with here.

Pedro- there is a little manscaperage on the cheek area so I look a little less wolfman.

If the Mo is causing a problem, just go Lincoln-style.

I reckon you could rock that pretty well (and you could get an Abe-hat too).

Pedro said...

and a whole lot more Back Street Boy.

Ben McLaughlin said...

Rodeo- Abe looks great on Abe, but creepy on anyone else.

Pedz- Jelous.

Steve said...

Do your sidies join the below bits yet?

Ben McLaughlin said...

Yeah, there's sufficient joinage.

Coverage is mostly good except a couple of patches around the jaw.
