Month 1 and counting

There's a bit of a disagreement here on 3NW View Estates on the maintenance requirements for the sympathy shave.  Last week we both got our hair clipped . . . Oh, did I mention how the hair shaving video had gone viral?  Over 500 viewings so far.  Heidi thinks there a bunch of perverted people with bald-headed woman fetishes.  I'm a little disappointed nobody has yet asked to see my head shaving video.  It was also video recorded, people.  Like Duh!

After the famed hair shaving event (which was actually done with clippers—you who saw the video would know), my hair had the audacity to try to grow back.  Heidi's hair isn't really growing well.  Not uniformly.  But after a few days I was not looking sympathetic anymore.  So I took my home clippers and re-clipped.  I know what your next question is.  You want to see the video from my second clipping.  Unfortunately for you perverted people with bald-headed man fetishes, I did not record that event.

But I did clip the hair on my face too.  I didn't shave, of course, because Heidi is not allowed to shave.  It would be unsympathetic for me to flaunt my ability to shave while Heidi cannot.  And I am the very supportive spouse type who would never flaunt.  Some members of 3719 View Estates think I should be shaving anyway. 

Therein lies the disagreement. 

Unfortunately, I have very dark thick hair (see previous post on genetic predisposition of generations of hairy Armenians).  So my attempt to look the part comes across as more scruffy than sympathetic.  It's the thought that counts. 

So I'm putting it up to a vote.  Remember, now, that Heidi cannot use her Sonicare toothbrush or floss either.  If you think I should just use clippers on my head and face, vote that way on your November ballot.  If you think I should stop all hair removal efforts (including on my ears), stop brushing and flossing and flushing the toilet, please vote appropriately.

  2. Don't shave, don't wash, don't floss, don't fleece, don't flush, don't brush, don't remind us about the bald video viral-ness, don't wax, don't wane, don't fret, don't freak, don't mess, don't cut, just don't it,
    Do blog (but not so long-windedly)
