Beard Deconstruction Project: Stage 1

Ok...so... in order to clean up (at least a little bit) my look for an important and classy event that is happening this weekend, I am shaving my beard off. I got a few interesting suggestions from some just as surprising sources--from High School Pals to YM Kids to Family and Very Close Friends. Thank you for your input! It's awesome that I got you to actually think about this at all, so...seriously...Thanks!

Here's what I started out with. Full beard that hasn't been trimmed for about two and a half weeks.

Mmmk?

This is the view your mom's pretty used to seeing me from...aww--sick burn!

Forgive the crooked state of my beardline...if I had realized it was that crooked, I would have fixed it a while ago. Also, sorry that I look so super-thrilled to be photographing myself...it was pretty late, so cut me some damn slack.

Irregardlessly, next morning, this is what I did to myself:

That's right.

Lemmy.

From fuckin' MOTORHEAD. (Modified to include the Soul Patch.)

I am completely forgainst this facial hairdo.

I love-hate it so much that I want it to go away and stay at the same time.

I am so proudshamed of it, words can't describe. Could it resurface again in the future??

Anyshit...if you think this is bad, check back tomorrow to see how it could possibly get worse...
