The Facial Hair Club


Kristian and Jody, showing off their grizzly facial hair. And, yes, Kristian is making the ASL sign for “lesbian.”

Seeing everyone at our reunion, I was struck by how so many of us look just like we did back in high school. It’s been ten years, you’d think that more of us would look really different! I mean, there are those few people who really turned their look around or who the years weren’t too kind to. But, for the most part, we all looked like better versions of our high school selves. Probably something to do with growing into who we are and whatnot.

And, yes, I am including myself in that statement because I ditched the braces and learned how to style my hair properly.

It was really nice, actually. I was just so happy for everyone.

Theoretically, I suppose that the people who stayed home could all be sad and ugly. But, I’m friends with a lot of them on facebook and they all appear to be doing quite well for themselves as well.

Apparently, the class of 1999 just completely rocks the house.

What does this have to do with facial hair? Well, a lot of the guys looked exactly the same… just with a mustache or a beard or whatnot. It’s like they were a character from a movie and, in order to show that ten years have passed, they show up with new facial hair.

I found it endlessly entertaining… but then again, I am easily amused.
