Beardo by Dan Dougherty for December 31, 2020

Isn’t it obvious?

Y’know, the kind of beard he has would grow back in a week or less… no need for everyone to lose their minds

Most times I have shaven off my at night, after I have been drinking. The next morning when I splashed water on my face, my first thought has been, “Why am I able to feel my face?”

Ack! Whenever my face goes clean, scissors first over a bag, razor second. Easier, and less strain on the drain.

I’ve finally decide to not shave the hairiest parts of my face anymore.

Is it just smudged or did he take off part of his chin, too?

The last time I shaved my beard completely off was in the mid-1990s. Looking in the mirror at my fresh childish face I said to myself “I just have the world’s shortest beard”. This reminds me of a short poem by John Updike: “Upon Shaving Off One’s Beard” The scissors cut the long-grown hair; / The razor scraps the remnant fuzz, / small-jawed, weak-chinned, big-eyed, I stare / At the forgotten boy I was.

Once, a coworker came to work looking different. Several others commented on his clothing and a couple complimented him on his new haircut. I was the only one who remarked on how he looked without his beard.

An example, I guess, of how many people don’t actually pay attention to details.

I think Beard looked kinda cool with his beard!

As a part-time opera singer/actor, I occasionally have to shave, but I got tired of the jokes about the painting in the attic and my wife’s “new boy toy”.
