Thanks to everyone for supporting me through the month of Movember. You've been very generous, and very patient with all the extra-follicular activities.

My sponsors donated $1499 out of over $10 million in Australia alone, which is an amazing achievement and a big step forward for men's health.

Alas, I fear my efforts at haiku probably weren't such a big advance for poetry, but I had fun with it, and it certainly made for having an itchy upper lip.

Wonderful work, dear friends. Kudos!

Great work! And I for one enjoyed the hair-ku. :D

Thanks. :-)

And "hair-ku"!? I've been looking for a name for it but was completely stuck. I should've come straight to you. Hurrah!

Mind if I spell it "hai(r)ku", though?

Hahahahahah spell it however you like. Glad to be of service.

I'm good at making up words... or at least combining two words into one. Of course, now that I want to show off my amazing skillz, I can't think of any words I've smushed together. *le sigh* Way to go, brain. Make me look smart and stuff! ;)

It's all good, and it all adds up. $295 is fantastic!

Have you shaved yet?

Yes, I have. The sad process has been documented on my LJ

Ah! It wasn't there this morning when I checked. Nice one. I did keep the shavings, just in case you were serious about our auction plan, but they made such a paltry pile that I was forced to sweep them away out of sheer embarrassment.

Nah, I got rid of them. They were all over the bathroom, covering most of the skin basin, and I could be bothered picking through them for the best ones ;-).

You have a basin made out of skin? Human, I hope. :-)
