There is nothing nicer than a compliment directed to one's beard. I try to give out many more than I receive, though the task is becoming more daunting. In one night (which happened to be my anniversary with my girlfriend) I received two compliments on my beard. I don't even know if I saw two other people with beards that night.
No-Trim 2010 is coming along nicely. Due to my novice skill level with my camera, my progress is not too terribly apparent on account of the difference in contrast and lighting. You can tell, however, that my beard has grown.
My apologies for having the facial expression of a serial killer in these photos…don't worry, your Cinnamon Toast Crunch® is safe.
As for my problems with mustache policy, I have decided that I'm definitely not going to trim my mustache. It is a viable and extremely important part of the beard. After much conversation and deliberation over the past month, the solutions to mustache problems are many. Among them are chewin' on the 'stache (not technically considered trimming), waxing it out of the way, or just dealing with it (the solution I'm currently going with).
Happy growin'!

I must say, I am incredibly against your decision to trim your mustache. Think of all the little children you will scare away because they think you have no mouth! Think of all the stained homework papers you'll turn in because you unknowingly dripped leftover coffee from your beard onto them!
ReplyDeleteI do not approve of this. Not one bit.
On a lighter note, you have the finest beard I ever have seen.
i wonder how your decision-making process will develop when charlotte gets a mouthful of mustache when she's lovin' on you. yuck.
ReplyDeletep.s. ali said she came to play with you in denton and it was sweet. i was jealous.
I think a compliment towards the posterior is much nicer. Either way, much prosperity to your beard and posterior.
ReplyDeleteCharlotte: You are more than entitled to your opinion, however wrong it may be. Children deserve to be scared every once in a while. Think of all the times you were made fun of by children when you were a kid.
ReplyDeleteAnd, thank you for the compliment.

Carolina: The reason I questioned my mustache in the first place was on account of that very phenomenon (that and the whole eating thing). She gets a mouthful of mustache from time to time, but we deal with it. …It's like when other couples fight.
Ali did come to play music in Denton, it was sweet, and you should be jealous.

Max: I don't know how your beard is looking at the moment, but I know your posterior is always looking superior.
