Topic: Just Cause...
Shaved my head again today to see how the dermatological surgery was healing and it looks really good. A little pink, but the nasty looking but harmless ol' sebhorric keratoses is gone for the time being.
I'd been wanting to change my look for a while now, and the razor in my hot little hand more than excuse enough. Since my noggin was freshly shaven I decided I'd bare my upper lip to the sunshine as well.
The fun thing about shaving facial hair is that you can do it in stages and see what it looks like when you excise this bit or that. First I started by excising the middle of the moustache out to the ends of my mouth, but left the bits on the side. I'm not sure if it makes me look more like a Fu Manchu caricature or a Klingon. If my eyebrows were bushier, I'd say the latter.
Duj HvoqtaH!*
(Note that you can see just a tinge of pink on the horizon of my head to the left of my eye...that's where the scalpel did its work.)
After scowling in the mirror for a few minutes, cursing Tribbles, and calling the Enterprise a garbage scow in my best Michael Pataki imitation, my instincts tell me this isn't the best look for me. The side tufts go, and no one will be offering me blood wine.
