Project 365 Redux: 8th Jan 2013 - Half Man, Half Beard

Boredom.  It's a curse.  Again, one of the reasons that I'm doing this - to stop life from becoming too humdrum and meaningless.  Not that my friends and family and loved ones and such aren't in any way entertaining or in some way deficient - indeed if it wasn't for a lot of you, I would still be selling myself for crack.  However, this project does allow me to release the crazy urges in me in more socially acceptable ways.  More or less.

Anyway, pottering round the house, mulling over what I was going to do today.  Then it hit me.

What if I only had half a beard?

Given at this point I had a couple of weeks worth of face fuzz and as I've been blessed with a face that as well as being one that only a mother could love, doesn't take too long to get a reasonable amount of growth going on, this seemed like a good time to try this out.

Armed with a set of clippers, a razor, some shaving gel and a vague recollection of Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden doing something similar, I set to work...

Certainly not a look I'd be rocking down the local discotheque but it certainly had a effect on the lovely flatmate who declared it to be no less than "pretty scary".  I did consider keeping it on for the next day at work but they already think I'm a bit odd on account of the dead animal collection I have in my desk drawers.  Which reminds me, I must get round to eating that fox before it goes off...
