If you remember, I started growing a beard in February. After two weeks it looked like this.

I didn't talk about it much after that. I think there are pictures of me at eight weeks, but those aren't too good.

Then, at twelve and a half weeks, I had to remove it (or felt like it? It was getting unwieldy. I had stuff to do. It was fun while it lasted). It looked like this.

(And like this.)

And then, in all her awesomeness, Nukaya worked her magic:

And presented us with Paul Benyan and his blue ox Babe.

Beard: Feb 4-May 3, 2011. It was bittersweet returning to normal, but I think it's for the best...for now.
