No Shave November: Day 19

Hey, gang! Holy Hannah. It's already been a whole week since I blogged last. I almost forgot to post today. Which, I'm sure, would have been a real bummer to the 2 of you who actually read my blog.

Well, I haven't given up yet. I'm still hanging in there. It's not too difficult anymore, actually. I'm not thinking about shaving as often as I was a week ago. Now, by saying this, I am in no way saying I'm keeping the facial hair. Come midnight on November 30/December 1, the hair is freaking going bye bye. It hasn't really grown any fuller within this last week. A tiny bit, but nothing noticable. It's so stupid, really. I hate it. But what can I do? Can Rogain work on facial hair?...

In other news, I'm thinking about moving at the end of next month. Well, not thinking about it. Doing it. I'm about 98% sure I'm moving next month. Where am I moving? Burnsville. I know. I know. Not too exciting, right? Wrong. This will be the first time I'll actually be on my own. Well, I'll have roommates, but basically I'm on my own. I'll be moving in with 3 other people. 1 I know, the other 2 I've never met before. It'll be...interesting. An adventure! I'm actually really excited about it. December 26th can't get here soon enough. (That's the move date.) I'll have more on this in a later post.

Well, that's all I've got for now. I think the next post will be the last No Shave November post. So expect that on December 1st.
And, of course, the picture. Please don't laugh TOO hard.

No Shave November: Day 12

It's been 12 days since I've shaved. I feel I'm growing weak. So tired. So thirsty. Can't. Think. In. Head. Where are my razors?

I'm not even half way through and I'm already thinking about abandoning ship. What little facial hair I HAVE actually grown is really quite pathetic. I've got the stupid Mexi-stache going on, some chin hairs that looks just sad, and a pair of adorably lame side burns. Why am I not able to grow a beard that would make Chewbacca proud? That's all I want. Can Santa just bring me THAT for Christmas? Please?

*SIGH* I can't give up. I just can't. What would Santa say? What would Chewbacca say?! NO. I must keep going. I must keep growing. Even if it does make me uncomfortable. I just wanna know how ridiculous I look after this is all over. I might even keep the hair in the end. (No way am I keeping the hair in the end.)

On a side note, I was called cute today while I was in the check out line at Wal-Mart. A group of girls were behind me and they were whispering to each other. Not whispering softly enough because I could hear them. Well, I assumed they were talking about me. They said, "He kinda looks like Taylor Lautner." "Yeah. He's cute." Of course, they could have been talking about Taylor when they mentioned the cute part...

And as promised, the picture of my pathetic facial hair growth. You have to look closely.

No Shave November

Greetings, everyone! Happy No Shave November. What is No Shave November? It's really quite self explanatory. During the month of November, you are not allowed to shave. Self explanatory? Yes. Simple? Yes. Stupid? YES.

I've known about this really stupid tradition for more than a few years now, but I've never participated. Partly because I like my face to be clean shaven. Partly because I truly feel this tradition is pretty dumb. But mainly because I can't really grow facial hair. I'm Native American, what do you expect? I mean, I can grow some pretty sweet burns and a little bit of chin hair and also a pretty pathetic mustache. The longest I've gone without shaving was about a week and even then I was disgusted with myself. So I can only imagine how I'll feel by the end of the month.

Why did I decide to participate THIS year? I'm not really sure. Curiosity, I guess. I just want to see what I'll look like with a month's worth of facial hair. And to be honest, I'm secretly hoping that I can grow a decent beard. Now, I'm not aiming for anything like Pickle's or Grandma's ability to grow a beard, but hopefully 1/8 of what they can grow. If you know Pickle or Grandma, you know what I'm talking about.

It is currently November 4th, so I really don't have anything to brag about. YET. But I plan to do a few more November blogs accompanied with pictures of my pathetic facial hair. Until then, buh bye.

Wait, does No Shave November include pubes too?...
