Nov 16-
Every year for three years now I have been doing the same awesome thing: not shaving for November. You can find my previous blogs here on the dying thread of social connection we all still hang on to- stuff in our pockets and take out to play with once in a while when Facebook gets boring.
Poor Myspace.
So why am I posting my blog here instead of Facebook which I really prefer and I'm sure we all use a lot more? Because I like the blogging format here a little more. That's it.
So how's it going? The month thus far? This is my first entry and it is November 16th. Pretty late considering No Shave November should probably start Oct. 31st or Nov. 1st. I started maybe Oct. 26th or something.
I have been busy.
With this.
I'm sitting in Montana- 3/5ths of us with Grizzly beards already. One is right next to me. One mightier than mine is directly across this round table from me. He's ashamed of it..but it has color. Mine does too. On about twenty two countable strands.
I didn't actually count them.
I think starting the blog now is actually an okay thing- a picture of my face cleanly shaven isn't very important and it's pretty much what it always looks like.
So here's from the 14th
I DO have something growing..it's the lighting that drowns it out
Impressed? I am. No, really. Here's a closer view from today.
This is where I was at the end of of the month last year
Seriously. End of November last year.
And looking at last years blog and even the year before has really shown me how much I've changed (physically- I actually look like I'm older than 20 now instead of 16 or something) and now I'm better at using proper capitalization and punctuation. But one thing has not changed- I am still hilarious. At least to myself. If you haven't read my last two year's blogs.. Do so.
2008 2007
Anyway- back to this year. It's going to be epic. Epic? YEAH! JUST YOU WAIT. The end of November this year is going to be heavily embarrassing and I can't wait. I do have some awesome plans that I will not share right now. All I can say is you're excited.

So, here we are- nearing the end of another fabulous No Shave November. Today for me was Thanksgiving and everyone in my family commented on how the hairs on my face were countable. Yes- countable.
countable |ˈkountəbəl|
adjective
able to be counted.
Exhibit a1
Carnage
Exhibit a2
Stache'
Exhibit a3
Countable.
Hear that muthalickas?! ABLE TO BE COUNTED. The only problem, as shown in exhibit a1, a2 and a3 is that one may spend a rather onerous chunk of their life counting each and every little hair on my lip and chin, and, fellow shavers and no shavers, it's not even the end of the month.
I know, I know, what more could happen in just a few days? Well. Let me tell you.
Everything.
I would like to point out that this year there is a number of colored hairs that has never before been seen in any No Shave November by ANY participator..that happened to be looking at my face in November. Are you excited for the end of the month? To see what unfolds? Grows? I am. Stay tuned, folks.

Something very strange happened with my face today... I .. I don't even know what to say. I will post my last update at the end of the month.

Dec 5th-
Alright, it's the dawn of the night here in LA- actually a few blocks away from Compton. Let's just go ahead and say that I'm IN Compton. Really.
He feels me.
So, even though this is coming late I will say that I DID take my final No Shave November pictures before the end of the month- in fact, on Black Friday. I've just been super busy hanging out with pelicans and longboarding into the moribund sunset over the Phantasmagorical Pacific Ocean.
Seriously.
There was a scientific projection of what my face may look like at the end of this month- done by a scientist. Here it is.
Not so far off
So remember my entry on the 27th? If you don't you should probably take a trip to the brain doctor because it's RIGHT UP THERE. A quick flick of the scrolling wheel. Whatever. So what happened that fateful Black Friday? Let me show you...
Even I was surprised. A slight disgusted and moreover elated.
Ho.Ly. Stache.
Everyone. Look at this.
I GOT COLOR!
Yeah, I know, strange and all that it's black since I'm naturally blonde but there are some wonders of the world that even scientists cannot explain. One of those is my face. Number eight. The color just..shot into the hairs on my lip and chin sometime during Black Friday. Curious, I know, seeing as the hair on my face is black. Perhaps there is a connection to be made in the day.
Was I excited to shave? I know everyone in Hyland was because we keep getting the cops called on us because whenever I drive the van around I look like a mega prowler, what with my stache' and all being black like this, and of course driving a big van with a big trailer that's labeled "Children I Have Captured". The cops always say the label on the trailer comes second as to the reasons they have pulled me over..number one being my shifty looks. Yeah, I suppose I'll have to shave this off..which is just sad. Sad, my friends. But there is always next year!
BONUS ROUND
I had a little photoshoot
Goes well with a beanie
I'd make a mean British P.I.
Or an indie art school kid
Or a homeless street performer
THE END.
