The other day was what I think is the last of the heat for us. At a blistering 103 degrees I was uncomfortable with a full beard. I wanted to shave but understand I am no slave to what is "fashionable". Never have been, never will be.
I don't give a hoot if the beard is in or it is out. My beard never determined my strength nor my manhood.
I do realize that as I age, I have lost what would be considered an "upper" lip. So what to do...Well heck, COVER it!
I shaved the beard and left the mustache.
In the last two days, I've had more people inquire as to "when did you grow a mustache?" or "What's up with the Porn stache" or "something is different about you..." "Oh I like it" or "Oh shave it or grow your beard again".
My response is...I DON'T CARE! I don't shave or not shave based on time of year, or what others think I should look like.
If you know me by now, I invest roughly 3 minutes per day in a mirror. I brush my teeth, I have no hair, I don't wear shoes, I like to go as long as possible throughout the year in gym shorts.
I shower when I smell or covered in dirt.
But what I look like doesn't matter to me. I think it matters more to other people, but certainly not me.
The mustache stays until I get bored with it. No beard for now...(still hot out) and I am not investing in any shoes anytime soon.
