                                                Bearded since: 2009.  I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower. 
 
Comments: 
I was feeling lazy last Thanksgiving and decided not to shave for the week. When it was time to go back to work I thought it might be fun to clean it up rather than shave it off. 
  
How do I feel about my beard? I like the way it looks and feels so I'm keeping it. I also turned forty last year and it feels appropriate for me to have a beard at this time in my life.
