Movember

Movember is done, and I still haven't shaved. I have a couple job search related and Christmas party related functions to attend, and I really don't like how I look clean shaven. I'll keep what I have for a little while longer.

I'm pretty happy with the fact that I was able to raise $520 (my goal was $500). Surpassing that was good, but now I need to make a goal for next year. Speaking of next year. Next year I won't have any supporting facial hair. I caught a lot of flack from Sox over that. She felt I was cheating. I don't think the same way, but next year I will go for the Mo only.

This year I also managed to take a daily picture of my Mo progress. You can see the pics here.

All in all it was a fun month, and I managed to raise some funds for a very important cause.

An interesting corollary to Movember is that I think I have a mini photography project. I am now starting a month of self portraits. Hmm.

I am posting there here on my website, to TwitPic, and to my MoSpace. Think I have the bases covered?

Movember is on. This morning the rest of my facial hair was removed. I had pretty much forgotten what shaving my lip was like. Damn that is difficult.

The first thing I noticed after shaving was that I could feel my breath on my lip. Odd sensation. My ride today highlighted the lack of facial hair too. I could feel the wind more.

Today was the last work day before Halloween, so I dressed up. I wasn't planning on it, but since I am doing Movember, I thought I might as well do something silly with my beard before I shaved it all off.

This was the result. I got some great reactions at the kids' daycare.
