The beard (SOC)
The word for the day at Ragtag Daily Prompt is hirsute.
âHereâs my beard, ainât it weird? Donât be sceerâd, itâs just a beard.â â George Carlin
I used to work with a guy who had the fastest growing beard Iâd ever seen. And it was a perfect beard that had no flaws. My beard isnât perfect. Like where the mustache comes down on the sides of my mouth? It doesnât connect well with the the beard growing up from the bottom of the mouth. But the guy I used to work with, Iâm not joking when I say his beard was perfect, and he didnât have that corner of the mouth beard issue like me. And his beard grew like lightening. Youâre familiar with a 5 oâclock shadow, right? Thatâs where a guy shaves in the morning and then by 5 oâclock, you can see his whiskers growing back. Think Jon Hamm or Don Johnson (hmm⊠could it be anyone whoâs name rhymes with Jon or Don?). But donât think about me because it takes me about 36 hours to develop a 5 oâclock shadow. Well, the guy I used to work with came to work one day clean shaven and the next morning he already had what most would call a beard. The last time I grew a beard was during the pandemic when I was working from home and surprise, the color had changed since the last time I wore a beard. I didnât like the gray so I shaved it off except for the chin and I had planned on braiding that because I thought it would be cool and because it was something to think about that wasnât COVID, but I got tired of seeing how gray it was and eventually chopped that off. Out of sight, out of mind, right?
