B-Day
Today was B-Day! After not shaving for a year and 6 days, I finally got rid of my facial growth:
The beard was fun, but not really me in the end. And it was a pain to take care of. But it was a nice souvenir of the Mackenzie while it lasted, I gave it an honest go, and I can hold my head high.
To make a bit of an event out of it, I went to this charmingly old school barbershop at Hastings and Nanaimo and had it removed with a straight razor. They did the hot towels and lather and aftershave and powder and everything. Pretty fun, actually. I guess I can see the appeal of the whole spa thing.
