The Thinker’s Butt

Did I just quickly post a photo of The Thinker’s ass so I wouldn’t have to stare at my face on the main page? Indeed. You’re welcome. That is all.

 

Day 30. Thank Jesus

My contribution to Movember ends tonight, after 30 days of growing the worst excuse for facial hair in the world. I may not have raised a ton of money but I’m very grateful to those who donated and was excited to talk about the cause whenever asked. Did I ever just bring it up out of the blue? To strangers, friends, acquaintances, people on BART — just so I could explain why there was a tiny, hairy worm on my lip? Yes, yes I did.

But it all comes off tomorrow. Thankfully. This was my first mustache ever, and toward the end I even started to hate the word mustache. I think having no hair on top and hair on my lip just made me feel … old. I’m happy to see it go.

I’ll be talking about this more tomorrow, when I shave it off. A big time shaving company partnered with my team of dad bloggers to give us all razors to document the shaving. Usually I don’t go for things like that, but they were willing to match our donations so I signed up immediately. I was pretty excited to see the team’s contribution double. Pretty cool. So stay tuned, I’ll be getting rid of this thing soon!

Arya Stark: As your own daughter?

I wrote this post over at Dadding today, wondering whether Arya Stark is a good role model for daughters. I think you know my answer.
