May. 2nd, 2007 09:31 pmOh, I've been saying I'll post a pic of me with dodgy chin rat beard. (This is what I cut it down to after Viking; it disappeared come Maelstrom.)

Love me, love me, define me
Apr. 12th, 2007 12:51 amMaelstrom was better for me than it has been for some time, thanks in no small part to a resolve to get out and meet new people. The game works much better for a gregarious character, and Blossom is basically supposed to be a curious sort if chap when he's not wrapped up in his personal trauma.
Also helping were interesting developments and profound, if you will, decisions. Faced with a dilemma, it was interesting to see to whom Blossom turned for advice and counsel.
Enough of such self-indulgent frippery, though! The real point of this post is to note that the lovely![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kneeshooter appears to have processed his photos in record time, and thus we have the traditional post-Strom sausageAndyfest.
Returning to the subject at hand, I feel it is worth mentioning this rugged gentleman from the recent Vikings! event. Crikey, I would.
(Oh, incidentally, on the subject of facial hair. I decided that I had to shave off the tiny chinrat because Blossom does not have one. For the curious, however, I did take a few shots on my phone, which I have yet to upload, but I am determined not to forget. IIRC I had three positive reactions, a couple of noncommitals and one or two "Oh my god get rid of it"s. And plenty of people politely ignoring it. Which just goes to show.)
Parting shot: Don't they make a handsome couple?

- Always one step behind
- Ahh, a new thoughtful pic

Oh! I forgot to mention.
For VIKINGS! at the weekend (which was awesome) I grew something that could charitably be described as not entirely unlike a beard. It took me three weeks[1].
As has been noted in this journal before (though I can't find the link at the moment), the process of beard removal traditionally happens piece by piece, in order to consider the appearance at various stages[2] During this procedure I decided what the hell I'll leave myself a bit. It's not too itchy and doesn't look too bad; if nothing else it'll be a laugh for a few days. I haven't taken any pictures yet but for reference it's somewhere between the chinrat and soul patch.
This is both fascinating and important, and you are a richer person for having read the above entry.
[1] I'm not ashamed. All my testosterone is focussed somewhere else.
[2] Well, you do when it takes you three weeks to get past the "unkempt stubble" stage. Who knows when you'll next have a chance to see yourself with a ridiculous moustache?
