or; my facial hair, not any type of animal
So I start a new job in a week and a half. It's exciting and scary all at the same time. It will be good to have a change – my current job was just getting a bit on the tedious side, and I'm pumped to get to know a new job, new coworkers, etc.
But – I'm going to be a bank teller. I don't know how stringent other banks are, but this particular bank is rather firm in their dress policy. Consequently, I just finished buying a bunch of new dress slacks and shirts. (That's the exciting part. This is the first time, in any of the jobs I've had, that my first thought upon arriving home won't be “I need a freaking shower!”)
The downside – I had to shave off my goatee. *sob, sniff* This has been a traumatic experience – now I look like a sixteen year-old again. My facial hair was one of the few things that would make me look my age (I'm a real baby face).
Anyway, I'm really, really excited. But I am totally going to miss my goat. It's like an old friend has moved away . . . and I don't know when he's gonna get to move back.
At any rate, JU, is there anything that you do grooming-wise that you would miss getting to do again? Because I miss my goat, and I need some consolation.
