Jeff with a Beard for Halloween

It starts out as laziness...for about 4 or 5 days I don't shave, it's fairly typical for me much to the dismay of some family members. If I go much longer than that, I start to get annoyed and this time would be no different. I got up a few minutes earlier picked up my Mach III Turbo battery powered razor...my can of shaving cream...and that's when it happened. My can of shaving cream exploded. It wasn't a fiery explosion, but the cap popped off and shaving cream spewed from the nozzle. I suppose I could have used that shaving cream, but like I said...I only had a few extra minutes, and it took that long to clean up the mess. So there I was...5, 6, 7, 8 days worth of growth. By the time I went to the store to pick up shaving cream, it was about 10 days of growth and almost Halloween, so I thought to myself...I've never had a beard...let's see what it looks like...I can be "Jeff with a Beard" for Halloween. That's my costume.

So now it's about 3-4 weeks of growth later and I don't particularly care for it, but I've only got another week to go...it's the cheapest costume EVER and it saves me time in the morning. Can't beat that for convenience.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that every man looks better with a beard.

I see no reason to make an exception in this case.

I never realized just how much gray you had in your beard until now. HA! HA!

My only complaint is that it's scratchy... :-)

I've always been a fan of the 5 o'clock (or 2-day)shadow!
